Abstract:
Of the farm buildings shown on the Ordnance Surveys of 1885 and 1904, which included a large barn, only a clay-lump stable with pantiled roof now survives. This dates from circa 1850 and was not shown on the 1841 tithe map, although it incorporates parts of a late-18th or early-19th century flint shed. Single-storied cattle sheds to the north date from circa 1920 and are not of historic significance. The stable formerly adjoined a horse yard on the south, with an open-sided shelter to the west, a pond to the south and the barn to the east. It reflects the usual layout of its period, with a central yard door flanked by two windows and a hay loft with a loading door in the eastern gable. A hay rack and manger lay against the northern elevation beneath a loading vent in the loft floor. The interior was stripped of its fixtures and fittings when block-work stalls for calves or pigs were inserted in the mid-20th century, and part of the loft has been removed, but the building is otherwise well preserved and of considerable interest. Of particular importance is an unusually extensive array of circular apotropaic circles incised into the internal walls close to the loft window and loading door, and a series of clay drainage pipes in the rear wall. These pipes were presumably designed to ventilate the hay rack and may be unique. Despite its interest the building does not meet the strict English Heritage criteria for listing.
