Abstract: |
In May 2014 Archaeology South-East carried out a historic building record and archaeological monitoring of an Essex Barn and Cart Lodge at Little Canfield Hall, Little Canfield, Essex, prior to residential conversion. The barn was probably built in the 17th century as a hay barn in the traditional Essex timber-framed and half-boarded form. In the late 19th or early 20th century the roof was replaced. The cart lodge dates to the late 19th century and has similar fabric. Given its proximity to the hall, it most likely served a domestic rather than agricultural function. Both retain their historic character and have not been badly affected by modern activity on the site. Prior to the survey being carried out they had been used for general storage purposes and for keeping modern farm vehicles and machinery. Monitoring works on a pipe trench and new Klargester unit around the barn found natural clay and sand deposits under modern overburden to the east and south and no evidence of archaeological activity. |
