Winterbourne Medieval Barn
Winterbourne Medieval Barn will be hosting various activities over October and the coming months with the main community event, Orchard Harvest Day, being held on Sunday 8th October.
Winterbourne Medieval Barn was built in 1342 for Sir Thomas de Bradeston, who at that time held the manor of Winterbourne. He was closely linked with Berkeley castle when king Edward II was murdered there, and had the ear of the new king, Edward III, who rewarded him well for military services. The fabric of the Medieval Barn is over 90% original and its raised cruck roof is a superb example of medieval craftsmanship.
The Barn is managed by a charitable trust (WMBT) made up of local volunteers, who raise the funds need to maintain this nationally important heritage building and keep it accessible to the local community. The Trust is always keen to welcome new volunteers, who can offer anything from an occasional couple of hours to regular help with events or admin. Anyone interested in joining the team should visit the website for more information or ring 0117 403 1536.
