ENN107403 - Manor Farm Barn, 2012 (Building Recording)

Level 2 recording showed that Manor Farm Barn may be 17th or 18th century and began life as a single open space, but by the end of the 19th century it had been converted into a stable and farm office downstairs, but with a spacious hayloft above. During the middle decades of the 20th century the ground floor was also inhabited on a semi-permanent basis. More recently the stable had been used as a workshop. Trial excavation showed that the area south of the barn had been levelled to build a cart-shed, probably in the second half of the 19th century, A soak-away, probably for the stable drain, and a vestige of the cart-shed foundations were uncovered. There was no other archaeology present. Information from OASIS Online Form.
