Abstract: |
Archaeological building investigation and record of a farm building at Broad Corner, Barnt Green, Worcestershire (NGR SO 9998 7216). The building is part of a farm complex, known historically as the Sidnalls, the origins of which are to be found in a thirteenth-century monastic grange. The building defines the south side of a foldyard and consists of an east-west aligned range, which was probably built to accommodate cattle, and a north-east cart-shed wing. Much of the brick shell of the main range dates from the eighteenth century, but there are five subsequent phases, ranging in date from the mid nineteenth to mid twentieth century. The present character of the building owes most to the nineteenth century. Despite being comparatively early in origin, the current building is undistinguished in appearance and architectural quality, and, with the possible exception of the cartshed, is neither a good nor rare example of a particular building type. Nor, owing to the intangible nature of the evidence, is it very instructive in reflecting economic or social change. Its main interest lies in being a sympathetic component of the wider farm complex and in its vernacular aspects, notably, the early brickwork and the mid nineteenth-century cart-shed roof structure which retains aspects of a long standing carpentry tradition; the later nineteenth-century roof structure of the main range provides a lesser point of interest in being a well-preserved example of a widely used structural type. |
