February 2007. Building survey of Hubbards Barn.
The former barn has been converted to residential use, and has been made into a 2 storey building. The outbuildings remain one storey. The exterior of the barn is weatherboarded, with a pantiled roof. The outbuilding has a Baltic pine roof, which dates it to the 19th century. The barn itself has an oak timber frame and dates from the 17th- 18th century. The roof was altered in the 19th century.

April 2007. Building survey of White House Farmhouse
South front has a rebuilt porch built in the military style popular between the first and second world wars and a decorative dog tooth band. The interior of the house suggests that it may have changed from a cross passage to a lobby entrance house. There is a back house (or baccus) to the west of the property, which appears to be of a later date than the main building.

April 2007. Building survey of Shire Barn.
Agricultural building, now converted into a residential dwelling. The front wall is constructed of clay lump. The barn comprises two bays, and there is evidence that this was a timber-framed building with studs visible on the south and west walls. The west end of the barn appears to have been floored, which suggests that the building may once have been a stable. The wall plate contains an edge-halved scarf joint, which dates from the early 17th century.

November 2007. Building survey of Blackberry Barn.
Agricultural building with brick gables in Flemmish bond, a pantiled roof and a flint and brick outshut to the west. The first floor of the north and south elevation is clad in black weatherboard and the ground floor has posts set on brick stylobates. The ground floor would have been open from front to back to allow carts to be driven straight through. The outshut was added at a later date. The building has been converted to residential accomodation.
