Exceptional example of late medieval architecture which has undergone no modifications since the late 15th or early 16th century. It is a rectangular building three storeys high, approximately thirty metres long and comprising a barn of five bays, served on the east by a spiral staircase. It has preserved its ancient roof structure. The joinery and ironwork can be dated to the 16th century.
