Abstract:		 In October 2009 Archaeological Services and Consultancy Ltd (ASC) carried out historic building recording of the Quaker Barn, 1 Oving Road, Whitchurch, Buckinghamshire as a condition of planning permission for its conversion to residential use. The barn is a 3-bay unaisled structure under a clay tile roof. It was built in the late 17th/early 18th century using locally sourced stone and some timber that had previously been used in a domestic setting. The barn appears to have been rebuilt in the late 18th century and the inscription on the northern tiebeam commemorating a wedding in 1794 may provide an indication of when and why. At that time the barn was owned by Thomas Fowler, a local churchwarden who was also active in the Methodist movement. The wedding was that of his daughter and Quaker Barn may have been a wedding gift or the place for the wedding festivities. He gave the local Methodists his dove house, which lay to the east of the barn in 1808 to be used as a church. His house, now known as Quaker Barn, was then called Normead, a name it retained until at least 1934. Records suggest that the barn has always been associated with Normead farmhouse and was always used as a barn or for storage
