It's not Saxon, and clearly dates from C14th onwards, and it's not explained why it called 'Saxon' here. On the external website for Bradford on Avon it's not referred to anything other than a Tithe Barn.
In the absence of any reason why this article should be called a Saxon tithe barn, may I suggest it's changed to Bradford Upon Avon Tithe Barn or similar?
Just looked into this myself with the architecture clearly being 14th century and came here to ask why this was so titled. As no one has discussed this in the nearly 2 years since you asked the question, I will be bold and go ahead and move the article.

The above IP was me, I had forgotten to log in. I have now moved the article as discussed to
Bradford on Avon Tithe Barn. I have used the hyphenated version (Bradford-on-Avon) in front of "Tithe Barn" replacing the "Saxon" label wherever that appeared in the article.
