Description

TL 72 SE BLACK NOTLEY OFF WITHAM ROAD

5/85 Farm complex to south
of Hayeswood Farm House

GV II

Polygonal farm complex of byres, cartlodges and pigsty. Dated circa 1839 in
green glass bottle necks to entrance gable. Flint with red brick dressings and
green bottle base glass decoration. Grey slate roofs, hipped to yard entrances.
Brick plinths, pilasters, eaves and openings. Single storey. Together with the
barn q.v. 5/86 and farmhouse (not listed) the group forms around a polygonal
centre stockyard so well designed that water seldom, if ever, freezes in the
drinking troughs. The dovecote listed q.v. 5/84 is part of the complex but
separate from the polygonal design. There are entrances to east and west, the
latter next to the barn. The pigsties opposite the house have timber fronts
with arched braces at centre. The rear wall of the sty range is off set with
moulded coping and has at the top of either end a small Gothic timber door used
to provide ventilation to the interiors. An interesting and attractive example
of small model complex of this date. q.v. 5/84, 86, 87.
