Eighteenth century timber framed store and 20th century outshots, Lower Barn Farm, Hungerdown Lane (EHER 80507)

A small, single-storey, timber framed structure used as a store and built up against the Southern elevation of the listed barn's midstrey porch. It was constructed sometime during the 18th or 19th centuries using similar techniques as the barn.

April 2010. Heritage assessment. A series of structures, mostly lean-tos, were present against the west elevations of both the listed barn and cart lodge. Most of these were 20th century, and therefore of little historic value (though a description is provided below), but built up against the Southern elevation of the barn's midstrey porch was a small, single-storey, timber framed structure used as a store. It was constructed sometime during the 18th or 19th centuries using similar techniques as the barn. The structure shares an asphalt roof with a 20th century lean-to built up against its southern elevation. This structure was made of skew-nailed machine sawn timbers and clad with modern weatherboards and it was used as a pig pen. To the North of the midstrey porch was an outshot built of brick, timber framing and medium density blockwork, used as a three-stall stable, and of similar date. All three structures were demolished under archaeological supervision. Two further, late 20th century, mono-pitched lean-tos which were built up against the West elevation of the cart lodge had been dismantled prior to survey. These had concrete shuttered walls and concrete floors, and were used as pig sties. <1>
