Abstract:		 A level 2 archaeological survey was undertaken on the Old Dairy, a disused L-shaped agricultural building of brick and flint construction that formed two sides of the yard at Poplar Farm, Langley Street, Norfolk. The resulting survey identified three separate structures (A, B and C) all of which appear to have been built in the 19th century. None of the buildings are visible on the 1839 tithe map, but had been constructed by the publication of the 1st edition OS map in 1886. The plan and surviving fixtures and fittings strongly support the interpretation of Building A as a cow shed. Limited survival of evidence meant that Building B's function was more difficult to ascertain beyond its general agricultural use, but structural details suggest was a later addition that linked Buildings A and C. Building C is likely to have had a dual function as a cow shed and cart shed, and has a weather-boarded upper storey accessed externally from the southern gable wall. All three buildings are likely to have been built within 50 years of each other. Buildings A and B are of the same bond and share other constructional similarities, implying a broadly contemporaneous construction, while Building C is mostly of flint and may be slightly earlier, perhaps pre-1850 when brickwork was more expensive and used only at the critical structural points.
