Map

December 2009. Building Survey.
Survey of outbuilding prior to proposed conversion.
The outbuilding was dated to the late 18th or 19th century with later alterations and additions. This is due to the type of timber framing with long raking braces and slight scantling, typical in Norfolk of the 18th and early 19th centuries. Oddities such as the assembly numbers being out of order and only present at one point, and the few visible pegs also point to this period when timber framing was in decline.
See report (S1) for details.
