Abstract: |
Reeve Farm is a late 19th century farmstead built on the edge of former downland in the eastern part of Week St Mary parish. The traditional farm buildings have been redundant from farm use for many years and some of these now have planning consent to be converted for residential use. One of the conditions of the consent is the requirement for the buildings to be recorded prior to commencement of building works. The recording and analysis has shown that the farm buildings were constructed in a number of phases as part of an evolved suite of buildings based on model farm lines. The overall group is ranged around three sides of a farmyard but the study group forms an L-plan part of this group. Most of the buildings had been constructed by the time of the c1880 map but based on their design and architectural detail appears to have been recently constructed at that time. At some time between c1880 and c1907 the group was slightly extended and part was remodelled. Reeve is a good example of farm buildings designed and adapted to cope with changing agricultural requirements in the late 19th century and into the 20th century. A particularly interesting building is the stone-built hay-barn that was added soon after the first phase of construction. |
