Abstract: |
In February 2018 Archaeology South-East carried out a historic buildings record (Historic England Level 3) of the barn and former dairy building at St Giles Farm, Blendworth, Hampshire. The work was commissioned by Sutcliffe Consulting, prior to the conversion of the buildings for residential use. The current barn is mid-/late 19th century in date though there is evidence for an earlier building on the site, as shown by the historic mapping and the presence of earlier brickwork at the base its walls. The dairy is a later addition, built between 1880 and 1897 according to historic mapping. Changing agricultural practice has largely rendered the buildings redundant: the farm no longer maintains a dairy herd and the barn is not a practical size for the storage of modern oversized machinery. However, the buildings fit well with the rural setting of Blendworth village and conversion to residential habitation will ensure the continued use of the buildings. ASE returned to the site in March 2018 to archaeologically monitor groundworks associated with the conversion of the barn. No significant archaeological deposits, features or finds were encountered during the archaeological monitoring. |
