Tithe Barn is a medieval agricultural building located in Oxfordshire, England, designated as a heritage monument under reference NHLE 1006351. The structure dates from the medieval period and served as a storage facility for tithes and agricultural produce, reflecting the economic and religious organisation of the rural parish. The barn exhibits characteristic timber-frame construction typical of medieval agricultural architecture, with substantial timbers and a substantial roof structure designed to accommodate significant quantities of grain and other harvested goods. As a surviving example of medieval agrarian infrastructure, the building provides important evidence of the relationship between ecclesiastical institutions and agricultural management in medieval England.
