The tithe barn is a Grade I listed medieval agricultural building located in Somerset, England. Constructed during the medieval period, the structure represents an important example of a tithe barn, a building type designed to store the tenth part of agricultural produce collected as a form of taxation or religious obligation. The barn's substantial stone or timber construction reflects the considerable wealth and resources of the institution or landowner responsible for its creation. Such buildings are significant archaeological and architectural witnesses to the economic organization of medieval England and the systems of land management and surplus collection that supported both ecclesiastical and secular authorities.
