Abstract: |
Oakford Archaeology were commissioned by The Mount Edgcumbe Estate in June 2015 to undertake a Historical building survey at the site of Maker Farm, Rame Peninsula, Cornwall. The archive and documentary research indicates that the site has been in continuous occupation probably since the late 18th century and that the majority of the current farm buildings were probably laid out in the mid-19th century. The layout of Maker Farm is clearly defined with the agricultural elements concentrated to the south of the farmhouse surrounding a large yard. At the time of survey there were, in addition to the modern cow shed, three standing buildings on the site. Apart from the eastern barn, which dates from the early-19th century, the surviving two farm buildings appear to have been built sometime after 1841. The buildings included a large bank barn, cow house and stable, and all major walls were built from local stone. Modern blockwork partitions were also present. Seven phases of structural development have been identified during the survey. |
