Abstract:		 William Pye Ltd made a planning application to Lancaster City Council for the development of a pair of barns at Moss House, Gulf Lane, Cockerham, Lancashire (SD 42760 48623).The investigation confirmed the conclusions drawn from the cartographic sources, in regards to Barn B, as the building appears to date from the late nineteenth century. However, Barn A appears to be earlier, potentially mid-nineteenth century in origin. The roof of Barn A was clearly original, before it was removed due to its bad state of repair, whilst the roof of Barn B is very modern, although it appears to have retained its general shape and form. The functions of the buildings would appear to have changed somewhat, having originally been conceived as threshing barns with limited space for livestock and hay storage. During the early part of the twentieth century, both buildings were probably converted to cow sheds, and since the mid-twentieth century have been used for the housing of cattle and for the storage of farm machinery.
