It may look like a field barn from this angle, but the chimney gives the game away as this was once a cottage. It is interesting to look at this photo again 3 years on, as in late May 2016 the roof has fallen in and the chimney appears balanced precariously on the gable end as if a strong gust of wind would blow it over. Becoming more ruinous as each day passes [as is the photographer].
