Post-medieval farmyard at Mallows Green Farm, Manuden (EHER 47407)

A modest array of post-medieval farm buildings around a courtyard comprises five distinct timber-framed structures, including a barn, former granary and livestock byre, store and cart-shed. These structures were recorded in 2010.

June 2010. Building survey. A modest assemblage ranged around a courtyard comprises five distinct timber-framed structures, including a barn, former granary and livestock byre, store and cart-shed. The barn is largely of 16th century fabric, though comprehensively repaired and altered in the later 18th century with the construction of a midstrey, new dwarf wall, and the replacement of its roof. A granary on the opposite side of the yard probably has mid-17th century origins. A cart shed and store linked the two buildings, and though of poorer quality, were probably constructed in the later 18th century. The courtyard was completed in the later 19th century by new cart sheds and ancillary buildings. <1>
