Abstract: |
Recording of a historic building was undertaken at Bluebell Farm, Earls Croome, Worcestershire (NGR 386509 241422). It was commissioned by BB Architecture and Planning Ltd, whose client intends to convert existing stable buildings into three residential units. The remaining buildings of the historic Bluebell farm suggest a largely arable farming economy, potentially dating from as early as around 1700.This farm may have had links to Croome estate at this time, as suggested by the architectural detailing of the farm house when compared to the former rectory within the village. The buildings recorded within this project document the period of agricultural improvement that started in the late 18th century. This is characterised by a single phase set of buildings constructed in the mid-19th century that focused on a pastoral economy, particularly in the husbandry of cows. These buildings are not untypical of the period. |
