Full Description

These former farm buildings were the subject of a brief programme of photographic recording, conducted in November 2020, to inform their proposed demolition and redevelopment of the site. Historic Ordnance Survey mapping shows the buildings were originally comprised of an L-shaped range of attached structures, with a walled crewyard space to the south, between the buildings. The northern, joining part of the range was demolished at some point in the mid 20th century, when a modern agricultural shed was constructed over part of the range. The historic structures are thought to date to the early to mid 19th century, and are all single-storey, being constructed of brick with pitched pantile roofs. Very little of the original interiors survived at the time of survey, making identification of their exact original functions difficult. {1} The buildings were assessed for listing by Historic England in September 2022. It was decided that the criteria for listing was not met in this instance, as significant loss of historic fabric had occurred, and not enough survived to serve as a representative example of this building type. {2}{3}
