Abstract:
In September 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 adjacent to The Grange, Southend Road, Woodham Mortimer, Essex (NGR 580436 204533). The work was commissioned by Madigan Browne to satisfy a condition of planning consent (planning ref: LBC/MAL/16/00274) relating to the proposed conversion of the barn to provide residential accommodation. The general framing of the barn is characteristic of a late 18th / early 19th construction date and historic sources indicate the farmyard has long been associated with the Grade II listed Grange, situated to the west of the site. It appears the barn has undergone a series of later alterations predominantly during the 20th century when the barn underwent re-roofing works, in addition to minor alterations and repair to the timber frame. Despite these works the original framing survives largely intact. The barn was originally constructed for the processing and storage of crops. It is constructed over five bays, with a central midstrey and wagon porch projecting from its southern elevation. The midstrey bay, which was used for threshing, has a full-height double doorway on both its north and south sides. The southern doorway would have allowed a wagon fully laden with crops to enter the barn, and the northern opening located opposite would have created the through-draught necessary for winnowing. The bays to either side of the threshing floor would have originally been utilised for the storage of crops both prior to and after processing. Later functions of the barn include its partial use as a dovecote and the insertion of small animal enclosures.
