Best of three Barn conversions
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Through Trembath Welch, pounds 300,000.
Wanstalls Barn at Patrixbourne, near Canterbury in Kent is the joker in the pack. It's a brand new house being built to look like a barn conversion, with the authentic double height cart door at the front. The weatherboarded three bedroom house is almost finished, has been built using oak beams and timbers and includes a galleried dining hall. The garden was landscaped before the house was built, grouped around a large pond. pounds 225,000 through Calcutt Maclean (01233 812060).
