HADLOW THREE ELM LANE, GOLDEN GREEN TQ 64 NW 6/99 Barn approx 4m south of - Tithe Ward Farmhouse GV II Former barn. Probably C17, altered in early C20, renovated circa 1988. Exposed timber-framing, partly underbuilt with C19 and C20 brick; peg-tile roof. Plan: Barn on a rough north south axis. It faces west. It has been converted to garages and workshop. It is 2 storeys with probably secondary lean-to outshots each end. Exterior: 3-bay front. Windows were put in in the late C20 but they are C19 iron-framed casements with attractive glazing bar patterns of intersecting hexagons. First floor has a large central 2-light window flanked by small single light windows. Left bay at ground floor level contains a C20 door to right of a tall narrow light. Centre and right bays have C20 garage doors. Similar windows to outshots. Main roof is half-hipped both end. Interior: The loft is carried on chamfered and step-stopped crossbeams. They have been inserted here in the C20 although might have been at a lower level earlier. Roof carried on 2 collared tie-beam trusses with clasped side purlins. Queen struts were removed when tie beams were cut through. Many of the common rafters appear to have been late medieval and reused since they include the notches for lap-jointed collars.
