Description: | This farm complex was built in 1825. The stone blocks outside the barns are cheese weights, which were used to squeeze moisture out of the cakes of cheese and press them into shape. Cheese was generally made on farms until the latter part of the 19th century, when more industrial processes took over in areas like Cheshire. | Subjects: | Agriculture Farm Food And Drink Crafts Cheese Loft | Source: | English Heritage - Viewfinder | Creator: | Perry, T P | Identifier: | http://viewfinder.english-heritage.org.u... | Language: | en | Go to resource |
