Abstract:		 Saviours Barn adjoins open countryside on the western edge of Wingfield Green. The timber-framed and weatherboarded barn lies at the northern end of a possibly ancient rectangular ditched enclosure which contains several varied buildings, including a remarkable grade II-listed mausoleum of 1840 in which the then owner of the site, Absalom Feavearyear, was interred. The house on the site was demolished in the 1950s, and the mausoleum is now suffering major structural damage. The barn is a typical three-bay mid-Victorian structure of modest proportions, as befitted the associated holding of 9.5 acres, with a pantiled clasped-purlin roof incorporating much softwood and re-used timber which was first shown on the Ordnance Survey of 1882. The barn's original fabric survives largely intact but its weatherboarding has been renewed and its utilitarian carpentry displays little of the craft tradition found in earlier timber-framed structures; its chief historic interest derives from its proximity to (and historic association with) the mausoleum. The eastern bay is divided to form a stable with a loft, and, unusually, the entire floor of the two western bays consists of large stone flags of up to 7 feet by 4 in size. These flags presumably represent Feavearyear's unused stock, and may preserve inscriptions to their undersides. The deal boards of the internal partition also preserve a series of highly unusual incised images, including a remarkable paddle steamer with twin funnels and fully rigged sails, together with dates in the 1880s and 1890s and a fine group of apotropaic circles.
