Abstract: |
The archaeological work has recovered evidence for a small area of cobbling to the west of Barn B, however no further archaeological features and no finds were found during the course of the watching brief. It should be noted that all groundworks took place outside of the barns. The barns pre-date 1844, with remnants of cob walling surviving in each, including an original window with splayed jambs in the cob walling of Barn C. This suggests that further cobbing survives, however the barns underwent complete restoration during the early 20th century, during which time the walls were rebuilt or refaced in coursed random rubble. Windows and doorways were reused, many of which are Jacobean in style and may have been derived from the south-east wing of the manor house demolished in 1858. Later modernisation and repair includes the insertion of brick and concrete blocks. |
