Abstract: |
Archaeo-Environment Ltd (AE) undertook an historic buildings survey of Balliol College Farm, Glenfield Road, Longbenton, North Tyneside (NZ269691). This work was undertaken in support of a planning application to construct 42 new homes on the site of the farm, necessitating the demolition of all existing buildings, except for two workers cottages. Balliol College Farm is an interesting example of a mid to late 19th century farm whose design incorporates a number of the key advances in farm layout and production technologies made over the preceding hundred years. Built primarily for intensified beef production, the layout of the farm was governed by the need to provide extensive space to house cattle, so minimise movement and weight loss and maximise the collection of manure for fertilising the fields. In accordance with this, the E-shaped farm was divided into three sections; the cattle byres and stalls on the east side, the machinery and stables on the west side and crop storage and processing in the central, T-shaped, barn range. |
