Abstract:		 Squirrells Farm was known until circa 2006 as Hill Farm or Hillhouse Farm. The original farmhouse is a grade II-listed building of the early-17th century and lies on the opposite side of the road. Hill Farm was a substantial tenanted holding in 1838 with 155 acres of land in Great Bricett alone, and was owned by Robert Partridge Esquire and occupied by John Squirrell; it is marked on Bryant's county map of 1825 as Squirrels Farm. The timber-framed and weatherboarded granary adjoins the western side of Offton Road, and is the only building on the site to survive from the 19th century. This building was moved as part of a major mid-19th century refurbishment of the farm complex in circa 1860-80 and its walls were raised in height by 1.2 m (4 ft) to accommodate a new grain floor. The early-19th century ceiling is supported by bolted knee-braces and an axial row of mid-19th century Sampson posts. The first-floor granary is reached by an external stair adjoining the southern gable in the standard manner (the present stair dating only from the mid-20th century). It preserves a complete series of six mid-19th century boarded grain bins with a central (axial) passage, although the gable entrance is offset to the east. Granaries of this kind were once commonplace, but most have been stripped of their fixtures and fittings and the grain bins at Squirrells Farm are among the best 19th century examples to survive in the region.
