Description: | The photograph shows the rear of the building and the Great Barn can be seen in the background. There has been a farm on this site since 1480 and it was known as Cyppenham Courte. The centre section of the Stables building is probably the oldest surviving building on the site, and dates from the early 17th century.
On the north face the upper storey is jettied out over the ground floor. The building is timber framed and the enclosing brickwork was built in the early part of the 20th century. Also at the beginning of the 20th century a pony stable was built at the west end of the building to house the owner, Phillip Headington's, hunters and his wife's Governess cart. The carter's boys would have lived and slept above the loft.
The stables building is now a Public House. | Format: | image/jpeg | License: | http://www.sopse.org.uk/ixbin/hixclient.exe?a=query&p=gateway&f=generic_sitetext%2ehtm&_IXFIRST_=1&_IXMAXHITS_=1&cms_con_core_subtype%3acms_con_text_what=copyright&%3acms_sys_group=%22sopse%22 | Rights holder: | Slough Library | Subjects: | Farm buildings ; Farms and farming ; Stables ; Barns ; Farms & farming Cippenham Court Farmhouse ; Cippenham Court Farm ; Long Barn ; Great Barn | Temporal: | start=1920-01-01; end=1990-01-01; | Source: | Sense of place SE | Creator: | Reg Harrison | Identifier: | http://www.sopse.org.uk/ixbin/hixclient.... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
