Description


UPOTTERY
ST 10 SE
10/101 Hayne Farmhouse
-
GV II

Farmhouse. C16 and C17, much rebuilt in the mid - late C19 (probably after a fire).
Mostly local stone and flint rubble but there is a section of plastered cob in the
rear wall, C19 brick dressings on the front; stone rubble stacks topped with C19 and
C20 brick; asbestos slate roof, originally thatch.
Plan and development: 4-room plan house facing south and built down the hillslope.
Uphill at the right (east) end there are 2 unheated service rooms. The main front
and back doorways lead into the inner of these service rooms. Next is the kitchen
with an axial stack backing onto a narrow lobby which separates the kitchen and the
parlour at the left (west) end which has a gable-end stack.
The house originally had a 3-room-and-through-passage plan but was altered and
enlarged in the C19. Nevertheless it is clear that the kitchen occupies the hall.
It has a large bread oven housing which projects into the lobby behind. This lobby
was the original passage but it is blocked by the oven housing. The parlour
occupies the service end. Nearly all the roof has been replaced and therefore it is
not possible to determine the early structural history although it seems likely that
the house began as some form of open hall house. The C19 refurbishment also removed
or covered up most of the carpentry detail.
The house is 2 storeys with a lean-to outshot on the left (west) end.
Exterior: irregular 5-window front of mostly mid - late C19 casements with glazing
bars. Some of the ground floor windows have low segmental brick arches over. The
front doorway is roughly central and it contains a C19 plank door. The roof is
gable-ended to left and half-hipped to right. At the back there are 2 more C19
plank doors and here there are various blocked openings of former windows.
Interior: is largely the result of the C19 refurbishment and little earlier detail
is exposed. The kitchen/former hall has a C17 axial beam; it has deep chamfers with
step stops. The fireplace here is blocked but its large size is evident. The
parlour has a C19 crossbeam. The roof is mostly made up of C19 A-frame trusses but
there is a probably C17 truss over the parlour. It is plastered below ceiling level
but its shape indicates that it is a jointed cruck. The roofspace was not available
for inspection at the time of this survey but the farmer reports that this truss is
charred from the C19 fire. The house has been little modernised in the C20 and
contains a great deal of C19 joinery detail.
Despite the earlier origins of this house and the fact that earlier features may be
hidden the house must be regarded essentially as a well-preserved C19 house.
