Abstract: |
Photographic recording of three historic barns at Glencoe Farm, Treen, in advance of their conversion, has provided information about their history, character and function, and also architectural remains from early buildings. Barns 1- 3 are granite walled, slate roofed, single storey buildings of 1-2 rooms, associated with Glencoe Farmhouse from 1891 and with an adjacent previous farmhouse. Barn 1 is a late 19th century washhouse formed out of a pre-1840 store/ pigsty, with an adjacent wellhead and old water pump. Barn 2 is a pre-1840 building that was originally a calf house, converted more recently into a workshop and store/dog kennel. Barn 3 was constructed in three phase - pre-1840 animal house; pigsty/store built 1840-1880; pre-1880 stables and cart shed. Barns 1 and 2 re-use oak timbers salvaged from a church and pre-1800 house. Barn 3 has parts of a mullioned stone window incorporated in its walls and a massive beam that may have a mining or maritime origin. A relatively modern garage re-using stone from pre-1840 farm building is constructed against the NE gable of Barn 2. A short section of pre-1840 boundary wall extends from the SE corner of Barn 3 to the NW wall of Barn 2. |
