Location Mileages: Ross-on-Wye 6 miles, Ledbury 6½ miles, Hereford 13 miles, Malvern 16 miles, Cheltenham 27, Worcester 33 miles, Birmingham 57 miles
Road: M50 (Jct 4) 4½ miles; M5 (Jct 8) 21 miles
Railway: Ledbury, Hereford, Malvern
Airport: Birmingham & Bristol (60 miles)
Situation The attractive rural village of Much Marcle is situated in south Herefordshire between the traditional market towns of Ledbury and Ross-on-Wye. The area is surrounded by rolling countryside dotted with pastureland and cider apple orchards, for which the region is well known. This part of Herefordshire is still very much a rural community with a timeless appeal, but also benefits from excellent communication links to the rest of the country.
The Barn • A beautiful and versatile end terraced, timber framed barn, dating from around the 1,650's. The barn is Grade II Listed and retains many of its original features.
• The barn is of timber frame construction and timber clad with some smaller stone-built additions adjoining the sides.
• As a threshing barn, it still has its original flagstone threshing floor and a separate cobbled floor that would have been used for housing cattle in the winter. There are also 2 internal stables which are likely slightly later additions.
The Barn Continued • Outside, there is a good-sized area of garden/paddock extending to about 0.2 acres in total.
• In 1995, planning permission was gained to convert the barn into a 3 bedroom dwelling, this was never started and lapsed in 2,000. Having previously been granted permission, this should give a good indication that planning could be sought again in the future if required. (professional advice should be sought)
• If planning isn't required, the barn would make a superb, unique and characterful barn for general storage.
