More about this scene

It is houses like this that make Burton so attractive. The Bible tells us that we should build our houses on rock and not sand – and all the oldest cottages in Burton sit perched on outcrops of sandstone. Barn End is a timber-framed cruck house (made from trees split and shaped to form the frame for both wall and roof of a building) and is thought to be the oldest in the village.
