Abstract: |
University of Leicester Archaeological Services were commissioned by J.S.Bloor (Measham) Ltd. to undertake an historic building assessment of Rearsby Home Farm, Rearsby, Leicestershire. Outline planning permission had been granted for the demolition of some of the buildings and the conversion to residential use of other buildings during redevelopment of the site. Home Farm is a very fine example of a typical Midlands farm and appears on the first edition ordnance survey. Such farms are a rapidly dwindling resource. The farm is exceptional in the fact that it reflects almost 300 years of farming development within its standing buildings, two of which are listed. This assessment sugests that further work must be carried out prior to any of the proposed work being carried out. The work should encompass all of the buildings and not be limited to the older red brick building. |
