Abstract:
The buildings were recorded photographically prior to alterations. The complex represents several buildings that have been linked to one another. In its earliest form is a detached kitchen, likely contemporary with the main farm house and dating to the 18th century. There is some circumstantial evidence in the form of a treadwheel/donkey wheel axle that there was a separate well house at this point. By 1840 the kitchen had been extended to include the well and a link had been added to the main house. Between 1840 and 1880 the rear building was constructed and by 1880 it had been linked to the kitchen. This is likely to have happened over a number of stages including the alteration of the roof of the rear building to form part of a walled garden to the north. The large fireplaces in the ground floor rooms indicate a cooking function within the detached kitchen, with a bread oven formerly in room 2. The fireplace within room 1 has been reduced in size. The function of the upper floors is unclear but may have functioned as store rooms or servants quarters. No original function can be assigned to the rear building.
