Abstract:		 South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) was commissioned by Piper Architecture (the Agent) on behalf of a private client to carry out historic building recording for the Grade II Listed Town Barton, Beaworthy, Devon. This work was undertaken ahead of alteration and restoration works. The farmhouse at Town Barton - or Drew's Tenement as it was known in the early 19th century - has a long and complex structural history. Built as a relatively high-status hall house in c.1450, it probably belonged to a prosperous yeoman farmer. In the early 17th century house was converted into a floored cross-passage house of a type common across the region. This is likely to be connected to the prosperity arising from the enclosure of the common fields and the creation of compact several holdings. This prosperity continued into the 18th century and into the 19th century, when the farmhouse was at the centre of a substantial farm of 300-425a under the Smale family. Later in the 19th century the house was comprehensively renovated, with a new roof, windows, doors and internal fixtures. Again, this may reflect sale (the Smales disappear from the Census after 1871) and can be related to the loss of many cottages in the village during the period 1840-1880 and the expansion of the remaining farms. The house appears to have remained largely unchanged during the 20th century but has suffered from profound neglect in the later 20th and 21st century.
