The Barn at Lower Tresenny, Grosmont, Monmouthshire is an "extremely rare"[1] example of a cruck-framed barn. It dates from the mid 16th century. The barn is a Grade II* listed building.

History and description

The construction date for the barn is given by Cadw as c.1550.[1] It is a six-bay barn, with a cow-shed at the lower end. The architectural historian John Newman records "its most remarkable feature, the great cruck truss".{{sfn|Newman|2000|p=243}} This supports the northern end of the roof. The truss at the southern end has been "much mutilated",{{sfn|Newman|2000|p=243}} " sawn off below the tie"[2] and replaced with a "gimcrack modern truss".{{sfn|Newman|2000|p=243}} The building is Grade II* listed, its record describing it as, "a well-preserved and exceptionally rare example".[1]
