The Untrained Eye

Hidden Treasure?

Hidden within this corrugated iron shed is a rare cruck framed barn ripe for renovation into a barn or a house for example. Cruck construction is where the ridge beam is supported by pairs of curved timbers which, I understand' were grown specifically for this purpose . Well, I think it's clever.

This example, circa 17th century, is at the Ffinnant Farm in Trefeglwys, Mid Wales.
