Abstract: |
Valley Farm adjoins open countryside on the north-western edge of Coddenham village. The timber-framed farmhouse is a grade II-listed and dated to the late-17th century. At the time of the tithe survey in 1839 the farm was a substantial tenanted holding of 235 acres owned by Colonel Leake of Surrey and occupied by Thomas Diggens The outbuilding forms part of a service courtyard to the rear of the farmhouse. It is a largely uniform single-storied, narrow flint-rubble shed with a pantiled clasped-purlin roof, but contains three phases of construction. The original building of 10.5 m in length by 2.9 m in width appears to be shown on the tithe map of 1839 and dates from circa 1820. The interior is now divided by 19th century boarded partitions into three compartments used as dog kennels and a wood shed, but there is evidence of no fewer than four original doorways in the studwork of the southern elevation facing the farmhouse. Two of these doors were low and narrow, and correspond with a pair of small yards shown on 19th century Ordnance Surveys and the building was probably designed as a range of dog kennels and storage sheds. A mid-19th century extension to the west preserves a good 19th or early-20th century chicken coop of wooden slats and evidently operated as a poultry house while a central wing of the same period was a brew-house and retains its copper. |
