Llantarnam Abbey Tithe Barn is a medieval agricultural building associated with Llantarnam Abbey, a Cistercian monastery located in Monmouthshire, Wales. The barn dates from the medieval period and served the essential function of storing tithes and agricultural produce collected by the abbey, reflecting the economic organisation of monastic estates during the High and Late Middle Ages. Constructed in the vernacular style typical of Welsh agricultural buildings, the structure demonstrates the physical infrastructure required to support both monastic communities and the manorial systems they administered. The barn survives as a significant example of medieval rural architecture and monastic land management in Wales.
