Description

Introduction STILT BARN of the derived West Frisian type with rear section and adjoining barn, located on the northwest side of the Dorpsweg and separated from it by an iron gate. The stilt barn probably dates from the fourth quarter of the 19th century, but may be older in its core. Description Stilt barn on a rectangular ground plan with rear section on the right side (NE) and barn at right angles to it. The stilt barn has a hipped roof which above the rear section transitions into a gabled roof. The thatch-covered hipped roof has a tile edge (except above the threshing floor wall) and gable ends covered with black Dutch tile. The gable end at the front (SE) is arched and the gable end on the left side (SW) is stepped. The gabled roofs of rear section and barn (rear side of hipped roof termination) have shingled wind ridges and are covered with black Dutch tile. The ridge lines of hipped and gabled roof (rear section) run parallel to the road. The ridge line of the barn stands at right angles to the road. The wooden internal square construction consists of four pillars with tie-beam braces and overhang on the left side (SW). The brickwork is constructed in red brick, the threshing floor wall has rebated sections, the gable top of the rear section has vertical boarding. The front side (SE) is a cornice-topped facade with five window bays, provided with arched sash windows. To the right of the cornice-topped facade the recessed threshing floor door with a two-light window above it. To the right beside the threshing floor door an applied door with three-pane fanlight. The aforementioned threshing floor wall on the right side (NE) has a footing in red brick. The projecting rear section has a horizontal four-pane window. The gable top of the rear section has a panelled door with fanlight, beside it a two-pane window and in the gable top a transport hatch with two-pane fanlight. The original components in the cornice-topped facade on the left side (SW) of the stilt barn are a panelled door with iron harness and two sash windows. The rear side (NW) is a low wall of which the openings of the stable windows have been closed. The gable top of the barn has a double applied door and in the gable top a four-pane window. The remaining sides of the barn are mostly blank. The gate is a decorated iron spile gate with two higher hinged access sections. Evaluation The stilt barn with associated gate is of general interest from an architectural and cultural-historical perspective as a virtually unaltered example of late 19th-century rural architecture.
