Abstract: |
The original function of the former farm building at Cherrycombe remains unclear. It may have originally been constructed in the 17th century as a 'detached' service room such as a kitchen, scullery or washhouse, perhaps with accommodation on the first floor for farm servants. The range was later linked to the main house by two doorways to improve access. In the 19th century the range was abandoned to agricultural use and the linking doorways were filled in. Much of the building was rebuilt at this period in cob and stone rubble, after which rebuilding the structure may have served as a stable or shippon (cow shed) with lofts over. Further rebuilding in the 20th century resulted in the loss of the roof structure and internal floors and the truncation of the building to its present height. |
