Abstract:
A barn adjoining Nos. 3 and 4 Mill Wynd, East Linton has been subject to a desk-based assessment and buildings appraisal by CFA. The desk based assessment indicates that No. 3 Mill Wynd may have been constructed on or about 1800 so the barn may be slightly earlier than this. However the main range of buildings it forms a part of has not changed substantially since around 1854. The buildings appraisal concludes that the barn was probably the original building and that both No. 3 and No. 4 Mill Wynd were built on to the barn. The barn originally had a loft floor served by an upper door which was reached by an external staircase. At least one upper window survives on the northern elevation. A possibly original fireplace was present on the eastern gable end and a doorway in the western gable end. Both features are now blocked but it is presumed that the doorway in the western gable was blocked around the time No. 4 Mill Wynd was built. The open doorways in the northern and southern side walls are thought to be later inserts. A blocked doorway is present in the centre of the northern elevation and two blocked doors are present in the southern elevation, one below the upstairs door and the other in line with the gable of No. 3 Mill Wynd. A blocked window is also present in line with this gable. This suggests that some form of internal partition may have been present between these doors. In its original form the gable ends would have been crow stepped but the western gable was demolished during the construction of No 4 and the eastern gable has undergone significant alteration which has removed the stepped profile. At some point the loft floor was removed and tie-rods installed to support the now sagging building. The entire roof structure is modern. Remnants of a concrete floor are present.
