Barn north east of Bentley Hall, Bentley Hall Road, Bentley - Babergh

Barn built C15, timber-framed and brick nogging. It is redundant and is only suitable for a very low-key use. It is structurally unstable and water is penetrating the walls in places, accelerating decay of its structure. Urgent Works Notice served and some repairs implemented. Fully detailed and costed schedule of repairs has been prepared. Historic England and the Local Planning Authority are currently engaged in pre-application discussions with the owner to secure a long term use for the barn.
