Abstract:		 In October 2012 Archaeological Solutions carried out historic building recording at Whitby Farm, Silver Street and 35 High Street, Ashwell. The recording was commissioned by Logan Homes Ltd and was undertaken in compliance with a condition attached to planning consent. The complex represents a linked group of farm buildings associated with the activities of the Angell family who lived there from at least the early 20th century. It is likely that the complex was acquired by the family in the late 19th century as part of the expansion of Whitby Farm which prior to this was focused on the south side of what is now Silver Street. The earliest buildings on the site appear to date from the very early 19th century and include the farmhouse along with at least two of the agricultural ranges to the rear. Ranges 1 and 2a are consistent with an early 19th century date, while Range 3 (now ruinous) and Range 6 may be contemporary. Other ranges were constructed throughout the 19th century, particularly Range 2 which is constructed of clay batt, which may correspond with a general phase of upgrading within the farmhouse. Finally the 20th century also saw alteration with the replacement of an earlier range in the south-east with Range 5, a large corn-drying barn, as well as small-scale alterations visible elsewhere within the complex.
