Abstract: |
Terrain Archaeology undertook building recording of New Barn Cottage, Wherwell, prior to the construction of a new extension. It is an L-shaped single storey agricultural labourer's cottage, probably built in the early nineteenth century. It has rendered cob walls on a brick base and a hipped roof with deep overhanging eaves. There is a single door in the west range and another blocked door in the east range with pairs of timber-framed two-light casement windows on the front elevations. Some windows on the rear elevations are later insertions or replacements. Internally, the cottage is divided by a series of modern and historic partitions. Four original raking strut roof trusses survive within the present common rafter roof. The building appears to have been built as two almost symmetrical wings, each with its own door and a single heated room, perhaps to house two separate agricultural workers. The west range was extended in the late nineteenth century by a series of agricultural stores and animal accommodation. These were removed by the early twentieth century. The cottage was refurbished/rebuilt in the 1930s and later in the twentieth century. |
