Abstract: |
University of Leicester Archaeological Services was commissioned by Country House Limited to undertake a photographic survey of outbuildings at Old Hall Farm, Groby, Leicestershire. Planning permission and listed building consent has been granted for the conversion of the buildings to residential use The proposed development area is largely single phase, dating to the mid 19th century with only limited 20th century additions. Building A is a range of buildings containing a barn and two cowsheds, while building B is a detached cart shed. The roofs of both buildings are by far the most interesting feature of both buildings. Building A contains a number of timbers inscribed with rase, or shipping marks, identifying the timber as European softwood while building B had an unusual structure, possibly locally built, of possibly locally sourced soft wood. The photographic survey provided a permanent visual (photographic) record of the building in its current state. The archive will be held by Leicestershire County Council Museums Service, under the accession number X.A4.2011. |
