Abstract:
Clock House Barn lies in open countryside on the eastern side of Clockhouse Lane, immediately opposite the eponymous Clock House a grade II*-listed timber-framed building of circa 1400. At the time of the Stonham Parva tithe survey in 1839 the property formed a substantial owner-occupied arable farm of 182.5 acres. The tithe map shows the present barn, which is a typical early-19th century threshing barn of five bays originally entered from the south but with a contemporary northern porch designed to lengthen the threshing floor. Its walls survive largely intact, along with three of the original four arch-braces to the tie-beams of the central bay, but the roof was replaced in the 20th century. The steep pitch of the 19th century rafters suggests they were designed for thatch instead of the present corrugated asbestos. The walled former cattle yard to the south is shown on the Ordnance Survey of 1886 and incorporates sections of early-19th century brickwork, but its twin shelter sheds had been entirely demolished before inspection. A small section of an additional shed which adjoined the barn's western gable remained intact and preserved a good series of circular apotropaic symbols to protect its content - but any historic context had been lost and the shed's layout and purpose was unclear. Prior to this demolition the barn, sheds and walled yard would have formed a picturesque group of considerable historic interest that complemented the setting of the grade II*-listed former farmhouse.
