Description

BARTON UPON HUMBER

711/0/10003 Drying shed to SE of cottages at Willi
05-NOV-04 am Blyth Ings Yard

GV II
Drying shed. Mid/late nineteenth century, before 1886. Open timber construction with pantiled roof (pantiles renewed c.1980). The posts of the building frame are carried on square 'quarry tile' pads which is an indication of the early date and unaltered structure of the shed.
These items form part of this very significant evolved industrial complex which with its associated Blyth yard at Hoe Hill is the only such tilery producing hand-made roof tiles using traditional methods to survive on the Humber Bank and possibly in the country. The process can be seen in its complete form from the mill house processing the clay, through the drying sheds for storing the formed tiles to the kiln for firing them with its office/lobby for the site foreman and for those supervising the kiln firing.
