Barn conversion

Northumberland barn conversion

These barns were derelict. Corrugated roofs failing, cart entrances open to the Northumberland weather, salvaged stone stacked in the yard. The stone walls were kept and repointed, a new timber roof structure went on over the top, and the insides were lined in birch ply against limewashed stone with polished concrete underfoot. Where there was a yard, there is now a courtyard.

The original rough timber rafters were retained and left exposed above the limewashed stone.
