Description

Late nineteenth century farmstead at Neild's Farm. Neild’s Farm is a 19th century farm complex situated at the south-eastern entrance to the village. The farm complex is slightly dislocated from the rest of the village and the buildings are positioned hard up to the road edge which makes them visually prominent. The complex consists of a domestic dwelling with agricultural outbuildings arranged around a courtyard. The complex is significant because of its prominent position, but primarily because these building reflect the former agricultural economy of the village and in particular its period of growth and prosperity during the mid to late 19th century. The agricultural buildings are architecturally distinctive with their large blank gabled roof planes and relatively blank elevations. 'Local Building of Note' within the Conservation Area of Buckland (B1). NGR to centre of farmyard,
