Abstract: |
Oakford Archaeology were commissioned by Mr and Mrs R Smallacombe in August 2016 to undertake a Historical building survey at the site of Natson's Farm, Bow, Devon . The archive and documentary research indicates that the site has been in continuous occupation probably since the early 17th century and that the current farm buildings were probably laid out in the 18th century. The layout of Natson Farm is clearly defined with the agricultural elements concentrated to the west of the farmhouse surrounding a large yard. At the time of survey there were, in addition to the modern cow shed, two standing buildings on the site. Both surviving farm buildings appear to have been built sometime in the 18th century. The buildings included a large barn, threshing barn and linhay, and most major walls were built from cob above local stone. Modern blockwork partitions were also present. Six phases of structural development have been identified during the survey. |
