Abstract:
building recording on selected outbuildings at Rainsford Farm, Crookham Hill, Thatcham, West Berkshire (NGR SU 52880, 66318) in order to fulfil a condition of the planning appeal (ref: APP/W0340/A/10/2134713). Rainsford Farm is located approximately 1.5km south-east of Thatcham village centre, and directly south of Thatcham railway station. It is bounded by the Kennet River to the south and the Kennet and Avon Canal to the north. The farm has existed since at least the 17th century, although its current structures all date from the 19th and 20th centuries. From 1937-8 until recently the farm has been owned by dairy farmers R. A. Grover and Sons. The now redundant farm is to undergo redevelopment with most of the existing farm buildings on the site to be demolished and replaced by 13 new houses plus car ports and parking areas. As part of the scheme two outbuildings north-east of the farmhouse are to be demolished, although due to their age and historic interest they were selected for 'preservation by record'. Discussions with the Acting Archaeological Officer of West Berkshire Council indicated that an English Heritage Level 2- 3 record of two remnant 19th century outbuildings was required to satisfy the condition. In addition, a very brief photographic record was required of the other farm buildings at the site due for demolition, which are of mid-late 20th century date, to provide evidence of context and setting.
