Abstract: |
In August 2012 Archaeology South-East (a division of the Centre for Applied Archaeology, UCL) carried out a programme of historic building recording of two farm buildings at Heath Barn Farm, Broadbridge Heath, West Sussex, RH12 3LN (NGR: 514430 130887), which form part of a larger site currently undergoing residential development. The work was commissioned by RPS in advance of the demolition of the buildings. A brief assessment was also made of two standing buildings at Hares Hill Farm located c. 400m to the south-east, which also lies within the development site. On the basis of constructional techniques, Building 1 is dated c. 1700. It originated as an open-fronted shelter-shed presumably for cattle and in its initial form was of at least four bays in length. At some point in the building's history the open (west) front was enclosed, and c. 1900 partially rebuilt/extended - in the process losing its northern end. Buiding 2 dates to c. 1900 and from the outset served as an open-fronted shelter for cattle, with a separate enclosed bay at the east end. |
