Abstract:
In December 2009 Archaeological Solutions Ltd. conducted historic building recording at Gyfres Farm, Bucks Hill, Chipperfield, Hertfordshire (NGR TL 5056 2057). The work was undertaken in advance of an extension and alterations to the farmhouse and the conversion of the south barn. Circumstantial evidence attributes the construction of the house to John Carter in c.1550, though the historic core of the house may be older. The building probably began as a conventional, late medieval three-bay house with an open hall and cross-passage. In the 16th century the hall was floored over and a chimney constructed at the low-end. The third, service bay was replaced by a cross wing in the later 17th century, when an external stair turret may also have been added. The house was further enlarged with a new kitchen chamber and gabled western additions in the early 18th to century. The house has been extensively refurbished, and almost doubled in size by a modern extension. The associated barn is a well-preserved example of a three-bay structure with midstrey dating to the mid to late-17th century. It has been sensitively converted to its current use, but shows signs of a minor fire in the past.
