Abstract:
In May and June 2009 Archaeological Solutions Ltd conducted a programme of historic building recording of the brick and milling barns at Hill Farm, Love Lane, King's Langley, Hertfordshire, followed by archaeological monitoring and recording associated with the proposed development. The existing farm outbuildings appear to have developed in two distinct phases. The milling barn and two other nearby timber-framed buildings, including a barn and granary fit within a limited time-frame. These latter buildings are the subject of a separate report. Common elements of construction and other characteristics confirm a link, and place their construction in the first half of the 19th century. The milling barn originated as a timber-framed superstructure on a brick wall with flint panels, identical in style with surviving boundary walls around the farm yard. This was altered when the upper structure was filled in with Fletton bricks, possibly at the time the main range of barns was constructed around 1920. The continuous brick ranges appear, from map evidence, to replace earlier structures which are marked on the historic maps, though they incorporate no earlier fabric. They are constructed of variable pink Fletton bricks commonly encountered during the inter-war period, combined with robust, standardised timber elements such as doors and roof structure typical of the late 19th and early 20th century style. Monitoring and recording was undertaken during excavation of a foundation trench within the yard area, and during the excavation of two inspection pits to the brick barns. No evidence for the earlier structures seen on the historic maps was revealed during the monitoring and recording. Two courses of brick seen at the base of the current Fletton brick structures may represent reuse of brick from earlier structures.
