The tithe barn at Great Coxwell. It was built around 1292 and it served agriculture for almost 700 years. Originally the monks at Beaulieu Abbey in Hampshire received the tithes. Now it stands alone and silent except for winds and visiting doves, no longer used for agriculture but instead for occasional cultural events and is maintained by a conservation charity (The National Trust). This tithe barn is 7 bays wide, but some surviving English examples are up to 14 bays wide. Great Coxwell, Oxfordshire, England. March 2026.
