Boxley Abbey Barn, Medieval barn in Sandling, England

The barn extends 186 feet in length with an east-west orientation, constructed from local ragstone with a tiled gable roof and two floor levels.

Built in the late 13th or early 14th century, this structure served as the Hospitium for Boxley Abbey before becoming a tithe barn for agricultural storage.

The barn represents the architectural traditions of Cistercian monasteries, reflecting medieval agricultural practices and storage methods in southeast England.

Located at coordinates 51.2997, 0.523554, the building requires substantial repairs, particularly to its western section covered with steel sheeting.

The structure maintains dual protection status as both a Grade I listed building and a scheduled monument, marking its exceptional architectural significance.
