Abstract: |
MOLA carried out a programme of historic building recording on a farmhouse and associated structures at Town Farm, Brackley, Northamptonshire. The farmhouse was found to have 18th-century origins, operating originally as an Inn called the Butcher's Arms until the early 19th-century when the site moved towards a purely agricultural industry. This change in function was accompanied in the following decades by the construction of barns, stables, pigsties and other smaller structures as well as an enlargement of the farmhouse to include a Kitchen and Dairy. Further changes in the 20th-century saw a part modernisation of the farmhouse utilities and the construction of Garages, Pole Barn and Greenhouse to the west. It appears that the farming practises were modernised in the mid 1960s with the installation of the grain dryer as well as the installation of new piping for the milking parlours. |
