Abstract:
University of Leicester Archaeological Services was commissioned by Mr. D. Cardew to undertake a photographic survey of an outbuilding to the rear of View Farmhouse, Coventry Road, Sharnford, Leicestershire (SP 480 916). Planning permission has been granted for renovation of the outbuilding as part of an ongoing programme of works at the property. The house is a Grade II listed timber-framed building, originally constructed in the mid seventeenth century. There are a range of outbuildings to the rear, the largest of which was recorded by this photographic survey. The outbuilding has been altered on a number of occasions and has a relatively complex structural history. The earliest elements are two timber roof trusses trapped within later brick walls that no longer serve a structural function. Roof trusses of this design were common in Leicestershire in the seventeenth and earlier eighteenth centuries. It is possible, therefore, that these trusses are all that remains of an earlier timber-framed structure, that was rebuilt in the late eighteenth or early nineteenth century, to judge from the brickwork of the lower walls. Later in the nineteenth century the walls were raised in height and the roof re-laid to a shallower pitch. There is evidence to suggest that the ground floor room immediately adjacent to the house served a domestic function, possibly as a pantry/scullery or dairy. The southern part of the building was in use as a tack room at some stage. The photographic survey provided a permanent visual (photographic) record of the building in its current state. The archive will be held by Leicestershire County Council, under the museums accession number X.A159.2008.
