Abstract: |
Northern Archaeological Associates Ltd (NAA) was commissioned to undertake a phase of archaeological building recording of a historic barn at Lowside Farm, Hilton, County Durham. Planning permission has been granted for the development of the site subject to a condition requiring a programme of building recording and analysis being undertaken prior to the conversion. This report provides a Historic England Level 1 'basic visual' record of the Grade II listed Barn at Lowside Farm, Hilton. Lowside Farmhouse, and the attached farm buildings, were designated as a Grade II listed building in 1975 in recognition of their architectural and historical significance. The site also lies within the Hilton Conservation Area. Lowside Farm is an example of a linear range farmstead, thought to date from the 17th century. Those built during or before the 17th century normally featured a cross-passage which provided access to both parts of the building, separating domestic and farming uses. The adaptation and rebuilding of longhouses was incredibly common; Lowside Farm shows considerable evidence of alteration and rebuilding in three main identified phases. |
