Abstract: |
Building recording work was carried out by John Moore Heritage Services on the Saw Barn at Manor Barn Farm, Hampstead Norreys. The barn is a grade II listed building, starting off as an early 18th century aisled structure. In the 19th century the use of a fifth of the barn was altered, being converted for the purpose of mechanised milling. It is apparent from plans of 1877 that these alterations had been carried out by this date as new structures were added to the west and south of the building; what is not ascertained is if this was steam or horse driven. There is some interesting and important machinery remaining associated with the milling process, the date at which it was first erected is not confirmed, but it is possible that there are two phases of this as the material used for the construction of the sack hoist on the Bin Floor look rather ancient and are constructed almost entirely of wood and not iron or steel. |
