Abstract:
In July 2009, Archaeological Solutions Ltd (AS) conducted a programme of historic building recording at Hill Farm, Love Lane, King's Langley, Hertfordshire. The buildings assessed comprised a timber-framed barn and granary. Detailed analysis of the buildings at Hill Farm established that a number of buildings, including the barn and granary, were constructed within a limited timeframe during a phase of general rebuilding and expansion in the late 18th / early 19th century. The barn is of good systematic construction, of both oak and softwood, comprising a typical animal / livestock house with a hayloft above. Parallels between this structure and the milling barn nearby indicate these two buildings are broadly contemporary, likely built soon after the production of the tithe map in the 1830s. The second structure comprises a systematic and expertly built granary, which has experienced considerable decay. It is in typical early 19th century style. The presence of Baltic bracking marks on many of the timbers, and a mark for a specific port (Danzig) sources the timber. The interesting use of stylobates, constructed of local Luton greys, suggests a pre-fabricated building process whereby the base for the structure was built prior to the delivery of a complete set of Baltic pine for construction. The granary predates the production of the tithe map and on balance likely dates from the 1820s / 30s, at a similar yet slightly earlier date to the timber-framed barn it now adjoins.
