Abstract: |
A historic building survey was undertaken by the University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) at Cold Comfort Farm, Rogues Lane, Barwell, Leicestershire on the 8th of March 2013.The survey studied a complex of farm buildings including the farmhouse, a two storey brick barn, stables and sheet metal clad barns. Although the farm as a whole is likely to have older origins the oldest surviving component of the complex is a two storey brick-built barn with a supported cruck blade roof structure probably dating to the early 19th century. The farmhouse and stable were constructed in the mid to later 19th century and have later modifications. The metal-framed and corrugated sheet clad barns are from the mid-20th century. Planning permission has been granted to refurbish the buildings and convert the brick structures to a domestic use. The metal barns will be removed. The report and archive will be deposited with Leicestershire Museums under Accession Number X.A16.2013 |
