Details from listed building description (S1).
When the barn (see below) was visited by E. Rose (NLA) in 1976, close access was not allowed to the house but the owner stated that the 'stucco front' was in fact cement and was added in 1921, and that the glazed porch was even later having been added for a wedding. Part of the cement front was removed 1997.
Barn. Southwest of Norton Hall. 18th or early 19th century. Brick, English bond, plinth at base of south wall, above which are two rows of 'brick grille' windows divided by a string course. Moulded eaves. Central door with pilasters, but rounded top has been filled in with a concrete beam and modern bricks. North side has been extended beyond original wall (which remains inside) with projecting porch, but the tiled roof covers both, showing that it must be later. The timbers are original however on the main barn, with two tiers of tie beams. The west gable has blocked windows with two small windows each side of the top one, and a diamond shaped brick grille above. On east a later barn in flint with a brick floor has been added.
Fair condition.
