Summary

Clay Barn is an early 19th century building made from shuttered clay with a reed thatch roof and a weatherboarded east gable upon a tall flint plinth with brick dressings. Inside it has rounded internal corners and a simple roof structure of two queen-strut trusses and intermediate compression collars. The shuttered clay construction is a rare technique in this part of Norfolk and this small barn is a good and little altered example.
