Abstract: |
Report on Standing Building Survey at Newlands Farmhouse, Emersons Green, South Gloucestershire. The current building comprises the former farmhouse to the north and a series of three barns extending off the southern elevation. The earliest phase of Newlands Farm is believed to date to the 17th century. This early farmstead appears to have consisted of an L-shaped building with a three gabled frontage and a threshing barn, detached from the farmhouse, located to the south. The building has undergone numerous phases of modification and extension since its original construction, most notably a later 19th century addition extending off the northern elevation. More recently the building has been unoccupied and has suffered fire damage. Despite, this many original features remain in addition to various modifications reflecting the buildings four hundred year history. These include original inglenook fireplaces in a number of rooms; roof joists; and several windows. One of the barns is probably a Phase 1 construction contemporary with the 17th century farmhouse. Internally, few original features remain. While the 19th century extension to the house and erection of several outlying barns is of little historic interest, the core of the building represents an important survival of a 17th century farmhouse. |
