No 65 Clark's Farmhouse is located on High Street. It is mid eighteenth century with twentieth century alterations. It is constructed of limestone rubble with ashlar dressings and a pantile roof. It has an attached low brick front wall with iron railings and gate. 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}{2}
Included within the curtilage of the listing are a range of coursed rubble farm buildings to the rear of the house, including barns, stables, cart sheds and milking parlour. Some of these buildings have been converted to residential use. {3}
The outbuildings associated with 65 High Street were surveyed by Pre-Construct Archaeology in February 2010. The earliest building was the threshing barn at the north of the site. A lean to was added to this building and used as an implement shed. A further implement shed was attached to this building at a later date. A cattle shed, loose box, former stable, pig sty, cartshed and more recent milking parlour were also identified. This farm was left in Sir Edward Clarke's will in 1701 to a charity. The 1826 enclosure plan showed that there were only three buildings at this date. The former stable, possibly a field barn originally, is the earliest building. BY 1863 the present layout had been established. {4}{5} | Subjects: | Building | Temporal: | 1750 - 2050 | Source: | Lincolnshire County Council | Identifier: | http://www.lincstothepast.com/Records/Re... | Go to resource |
