Leigh Court Barn

Leigh Court Barn

If you visit the barn don'f forget to take a 10p to put the lights on!

An outstanding display of English medieval carpentry, this mighty timber-framed barn is the largest cruck structure in Britain.

Built for Pershore Abbey in 1344, it is 46 metres (150 feet) long, with 18 cruck blades each made from a single oak tree.
