Abstract: |
In July 2017 Archaeology South-East (a division of the Centre for Applied Archaeology, UCL) carried out a historic buildings record of Harris Bros. Garage, Boreham Hill, Hailsham, East Sussex, BN27 4SQ. The work was commissioned by Baker Architectural on behalf of Mr Michael Southouse and requested by Wealden District Council, to be addressed as a condition placed on planning consent relating to the demolition of the existing buildings on the site for the construction of six residential units, together with associated parking and landscaping (Planning refs: WD/2013/2079/O). The Harris Bros. Garage is an example of an early 20th century motor car garage, which utilised pre-existing structures of an agricultural nature, originally forming part of the larger development to the east along Boreham Street. The garage was subsequently extended during the mid- late 20th century to accommodate additional open-fronted workshops, framing a rear yard. All structures have been subjected to additions and alterations of a piecemeal nature, dating to both the late 20th century and modern day. Before the building became redundant of use, its northern structures served as classic car showrooms, whereas the southern areas maintained their use as a garage and car maintenance service, accompanied by petrol filling stations. |
