Abstract: |
In February 2016 Archaeology South-East (a division of the Centre for Applied Archaeology, University College London) carried out a programme of historic building recording in connection with the development of the barn and stable of Ware Farm, High Roding, Dunmow, Essex, CM6 1NT, (hereafter 'the site'; centred NGR: 560146 216989). The work was commissioned by Susan Deluca on behalf of the owner Vanessa Jane Post, to satisfy a condition attached to planning permission (planning refs: UTT/15/3500, UTT/13/3501/LB) relating to the proposed conversion of the barn to provide bed and breakfast accommodation. The site comprises a barn and stable, which together with the farmhouse and other auxiliary buildings form a complex of buildings arranged around a yard adjacent to The Street, the main road in High Roding. The barn and stable are now used primarily for storage. The framing of the barn is characteristic of late 18th or early 19th century construction techniques. The barn was constructed as a traditional six-bay threshing barn and was converted in the mid-19th century to use as a granary and cow house. Elements of the stable appear to date to the mid-/late 18th century, although it has witnessed at least one, or possibly two substantial phases of alteration/repair. The original function of the early building is unknown but its western bay was probably an open shelter for cattle. |
