Description: | PRN 64217
Late 18th century red brick house with 19th and 20th century alterations. For the full description and the legal address of this listed building please refer to the appropriate List of Buildings of Special Architectural or Historic Interest. {1}
A programme of historic building recording was undertaken on a detached kitchen structure prior to redevelopment at The Forge House, Main Street, Ewerby. Located with the curtilage of a Listed Building of late 18th century date, the recorded structure is of historic interest as a rare survival of a post-medieval detached kitchen and important in terms of local rural vernacular architecture. The earliest phase of the recorded building was the main shell, constructed in the late 18th century. This contained a hearth range and an oven, the latter partially projecting out of the back of the building. However, there was some evidence to suggest that the oven was not original to the building but a later insertion. There was also evidence of alterations to the hearth range, these aspects probably occurring in the 19th century. Later, in the second half of the 19th century, the building was extended to the north, with the new room created by this enclosing the rear of the oven. Minor alterations to the building also took place in the 20th century.{2}{3} | Subjects: | Building | Temporal: | 1775 - 2050 | Source: | Lincolnshire County Council | Identifier: | http://www.lincstothepast.com/Records/Re... | Go to resource |
