Abstract:
An historic building survey was undertaken by the University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) at the Whittle Estate, Cambridge Road, Whetstone, Leicestershire between the 28th of November and the 3rd of December 2012. The survey studied a number of buildings located in the north-eastern corner of the site. These were: a range of former farm buildings known as Park Farm, the former estate canteen known as Block 5 and also a workshop and small outbuilding known as Block 6 and 6a. Park Farm has its origins as an early 19th century set of farm buildings with modifications continuing to the mid-20th century and was subject to a photographic survey. The original farmhouse appears to have been demolished in the early 1960s. Blocks 5, 6 and 6a date to the mid-1940s and form part of the original complex of buildings erected as part of Sir Frank Whittle's manufacturing site used for the development and production of jet engines. Because of their historical connections these blocks underwent an English Heritage Level 2 survey. Planning permission has been granted to demolish the redundant Blocks 5, 6 and 6a. The report and archive will be deposited with Leicestershire County Council under Accession Number X.A123.2012
