The interior of Great Coxwell Barn, Great Coxwell

This is an impressive 152 feet long Cotswold stone barn with Cotswold stone tiles supported by oak posts which sit on top of 22 feet high stone posts. Much of the original oak roof structure was replaced in deal in the 19th century but the posts and main and intermediate trusses are original. In the 20th century extensive repairs were carried out by the National Trust.

An interesting old village well in Great Coxwell.

Great Coxwell is a small cul-de-sac village on the high ground known as the Midvale Ridge. Many of the older properties in the village are built of local corallian limestone rubble. There are also some 19th century brick-built cottages and, of course, some late 20th century housing.
