Tithe Barn Lacock

#celebratewithtrip The tithe barn is built with blocks of limestone rubble supporting a cruck-framed roof. The roof is topped with heavy slate tiles. The interior is split into eight bays by large cruck trusses supported on blocks of dressed stone. Some of the timber beams show carpenter's marks, and some bear apotropaic protection symbols (symbols meant to ward off evil). The floor is made of beaten earth. The tithe barn is located at the corner of High Street and East Street in the heart of Lacock and just a minute's stroll from the entrance to Lacock Abbey. #unitedkingdom #couplestrip
