The Court Barn



Dating from the late 17th or early 18th century, The Court Barn was originally built at Lee-on-Solent, Hampshire. It had the normal arrangement of a central threshing floor between the storage bays and there is an owl loft above the entrance. The building houses an exhibition on the use of lead in buildings and plumbing, stonemasonry and stained glass work. The barn was dismantled in 1976 and re-erected at the Weald and Downland Living Museum in 1980. The work was funded by the Worshipful Company of Plumbers. The BBC TV series The Repair Shop was largely filmed in the barn in 2017.
