About Swalcliffe Barn
Known locally as the Tythe Barn, Swalcliffe Barn was built for the Rectorial Manor of Swalcliffe by New College, who owned the Manor. Constructed between 1400 and 1409, it is one of the dozen best barns in the country, with much of its medieval timber half-cruck roof intact. The Oxfordshire Buildings Trust owns it and repaired it with a grant from English Heritage. Oxfordshire County Museums lease the barn as 'display storage' and visitors may see some of the collections of agricultural and trade vehicles.
