Waddeton Barton Barns

A record of four barns was prepared prior to their conversion to accommodation. Three of the barns were constructed in the mid-late 19th century and two were designed as cowhouses with lofts over. They formed an extension of an existing farm and were associated with a diversification into the rearing of cattle. In the late 19th century they were altered and a new combination barn with a layloft/threshing floor over cart sheds and a stable was constructed. All were altered in the later 20th century when the cart sheds were converted to a dairy.
