Type and Period

Description

September 1971. Grade II listed. An 18th century timber framed and black weatherboarded granary and cart lodge, with hipped plain tile roof. The front and south elevations are of two storeys with three garage-door openings; the first floor has a loading door and two high-level windows. There is a lean-to extension on the rear. It was formerly a single-storey cart-lodge, with an open back and front. It was later extended, and raised to two storeys with tie beams on large hanging knees. <1> April 2021. Heritage assessment. The building was constructed in the 18th century as a single storey two-bay cart lodge associated with the nearby properties of Maldon Wycke (EHER 38493) and Maldon Hall (EHER 38490). At a later date, sometime before 1838, the cart lodge was extended with three more bays to the west and with a second storey granary. Subsequently, in the 20th century, a single-storey lean-to was added to the northern elevation. At a similar time a series of garage doors and windows were installed on the building's southern elevation and a substantial amount of the timber frame was rebuilt using machine-cut timber, probably due to damage or a collapse. <2>
