Abstract:
Historic building assessment was prepared for 5 The Green, Woughton on the Green, Milton Keynes, to inform proposals for the refurbishment and repair of the building for residential use. The property comprises two early 19th-century linked dwellings, Cottage Farm fronting the green and Woodbine Cottage to the rear, both Grade II listed. Cottage Farm was constructed in the first half of the 19th century: cartographic evidence suggests a date between 1825 and 1867. As built, the house occupied a similar footprint, but structural evidence indicates that the roofs of the northern part and the original southern wing were lower, possibly with dormer windows to the first floors. At this time the building probably accommodated two separate households: one in the original northern part of the building and one in the original southern wing. In the late 19th century the walls and roof were raised to their present configuration, and the southern wing was extended. From the cartographic evidence, these changes had probably taken place by 1881. Since that date the only changes to the building appear to have comprised provision of modern services, the construction of a single-storey kitchen extension (now demolished) to the south end, and the replacement of some original windows in the northern part of the building with UPVC units. The latter appears to have occurred after 1975, when the building was listed. Apart from the basic fabric of the building, the assessment revealed few features of architectural or historic significance. Timber framing indicating the early lower roof of the building survives on the first floor (F2, F4) and in the attic. The fireplace, cupboards and wainscoting in G2 are surviving early 19th-century features, and there is a mid to late 19th-century tiled fire surround in G6. Though probably original fittings, the surviving timber-framed casement windows are all rotten, and will require replacing.
