This watercolour shows Prior’s Hall Barn, an old medieval barn in Essex. The artist, H. E. Du Plessis, painted it around 1940. You can see the sturdy brown roof from the outside, but not the amazing timber inside. The barn is one of the best left in southeast England. After the war, English Heritage bought it and fixed it up. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum.
