Abstract: |
A level 2 historic building survey was carried out at Limes Farmhouse Barns, 22 Main Street, Breedon on the Hill, Leicestershire. The site consists of three barns forming an L-shaped layout to the side of Grade II Limes Farmhouse. The site consists of three barns forming an L-shaped layout to the side of Grade II Limes Farmhouse. The barn, which is attached to the farmhouse has a timber-framed outer wall and is likely to date to the 17th century although it has been extensively modified over the years. The other two barns are likely to be of mid-19th century date and have also been modified in the 20th century.
All of the barns are brick-built with some timber framing surviving on one wall of the northern barn. Surviving evidence suggests that they were used as stabling, loose boxes and milking parlour before falling out of use |
