This barn appears to be all that is left of Albury Hall, a country house that was demolished c. 1950. The house and the estate dominated the village of Albury and the five adjacent hamlets from the late 18th Century up to the Second World War. It was the seat of a number of powerful and prominent people in politics and banking and employed the majority of the population of the district in agriculture and allied trades. The local village website is active and very informative with the history and old photographs of the house and can be found at http://www.alburyvillage.org.uk/index.htm Follow the link to "Albury Hall History".
