Abstract: |
The required photographic survey involved the creation of graphic and visual records, in the form of written descriptions of the building and photography. The Photographic Survey was required on a redundant barn adjacent to The Farmer's House prior to proposed conversion to a holiday home. Although the building is not of any particular architectural or historical merit, vernacular remains are becoming increasingly rare and are facing a high rate of loss through redundancy, demolition and conversion and are worthy of recording prior to development. The barn is recorded on the 1880 Ordnance Survey plan and is therefore at least 19th century in origin. The barn was originally built as a tack room and was probably a 19th century construction with mid-late 20th century additions. A more accurate construction date cannot be given within the scope of the project, considering that the style of the building is fairly common. In the event that further works are undertaken within the complex it is recommended that a map regression exercise should be undertaken. In the 1970's the building was converted to a dairy and extensively remodelled internally. The roof structure and first floor are both modern replacements. |
