Abstract:		 Planning consent has been granted to redevelop and convert a group of disused farm buildings at Woolgarden, St Clether to residential use. These proposals prompted an historic building record to be carried out in advance of the works. The subject group of farm buildings comprises two ranges of buildings within the context of a 17th century farmhouse and two other traditional farm buildings. Barn 1 to the south-east side of the farmyard comprises a linear range containing a small early-19th century barn, a late-19th century cart-shed/implement-shed with integral stable/loose-box, and a small early-20th century lean-to. The earliest part of Barn 1 retains interesting vernacular features including triangular ventilators. The original part of Barn 2 is a very interesting design that contains a mix of farming functions including a cow-house, loose-box and probable goose-house or pigsty on its ground floor and threshing floor and lofts above. Significant features include a number of keeping places, adzed cross beams and some reused ship's timbers. A large rectangular horse-engine house was added to the original building in the mid 19th century. The horse-engine house was originally an open-sided building with its principal beam carried from the rear wall of the barn to a bearing wall opposite. The side walls were later built-up with stone walling except for two doorways plus a small window opening that was later altered to become a doorway. At this time the horse-engine appears to have been replaced by an oil engine situated in a lean-to and the horse-engine house itself converted to become additional animal accommodation. After c1907 the barn was extended southwards to contain an additional cow-house with a loft above. This later cow-house was subsequently converted to an open animal house. Its loft is subdivided between front and rear, the rear area containing a freestanding cast-iron Bentall mill.
