Abstract: |
South West Archaeology Ltd. was commissioned to undertake building recording and archaeological monitoring and recording at Carninney North Barn, St Ives, Cornwall. This work was undertaken in advance of the conversion of the barn to a residential dwelling. The North Barn is one of a number of small outbuildings at Carninney. The settlement is first documented in the 14th century, and parts of the farmhouse probably date to the 17th century. North Barn was probably built in the 18th century, but like the other structures on this farmstead, it appears to have been nearly derelict prior to a major phase of repair and alteration in the mid 20th century. During this phase a concrete milking parlour was installed, including a drain with an inspection chamber for waste water and solids dug on the north side of the barn. While the character of the build would indicate an 18th century date, any other period fittings and carpentry were lost in the mid 20th century. In terms of size and character it is very similar to other buildings on this farmstead, one of which retains a scantle slate roof laid in diminishing courses. All of these buildings, and the farmhouse, predate the major phase of farmstead (re)building that took place in Cornwall during the first half of the 19th century. As such, collectively they are representative of the type of farmstead that existed prior to c.1825, very few of which survive. |
