A CERTAIN baby may have been born in a barn, but we bet it wasn’t as cosy as this one.
Long Barn was converted in the Eighties and sits bang in the centre of Sonning — home of the Mill at Sonning dinner theatre.
Although if it’s Christmas panto you’re after, you’d best talk to Long Barn vendor, the well-known playwright/lyricist Warner Brown, who has penned the score to many a musical, including Cinderella, which was performed at the London Palladium.
The property is pretty spacious (essentially a characterful bungalow) and is in okay shape, but as the pictures show it would benefit from some TLC.
Needless to say there is potential here — with sleigh-bells on!
