Abstract:
A programme of building recording has been carried out in advance of the proposed redevelopment for residential use of a group of redundant and largely derelict farm buildings at West Chevington Farm, south Northumberland. The photographic recording was undertaken using colour digital photography. In addition, a measured plan and elevation drawings of the building supplied by the architect was examined with the intention to annotate to correct any errors and show historic phasing, which proved unnecessary. Similarly, efforts were made to research the history and development of the site through locally available historic maps and records. The results of this investigation are outlined below, and the extant structures described. This is an interesting, though not exceptional, complex of farm buildings reflecting a period of transition in the construction and operation of planned farms in the mid-19th century when horse-power was giving way to steam. A large part of the significance of these buildings lies in the almost complete survival of the complex as constructed by c.1860, but the present, highly dilapidated state of most of the buildings detracts from their importance. However, it is recommended that as much of the historic fabric as possible, as well as the overall ground plan, is retained during their conversion to residential use.
