Cartshed With Loft Over And Attached Farmyard Wall With Outbuildings At Home Farm At Cams Hall

This is a cartshed with a loft above, along with an attached farmyard wall and outbuildings, located at Home Farm at Cams Hall. It dates from the mid to late 19th century, with the cartshed specifically dated to 1872. The structure is built of red brick with blue headers in English bond and has a plain tile roof. The yard wall is made of red brick in Flemish garden wall bond, featuring a cream Beaulieu brick gatepier.

The cartshed is two storeys high and consists of six bays, with a lean-to on the right side and a small outbuilding projecting from the rear left. The bays are arranged in a near-symmetrical pattern of 1:4:1. On the ground floor, there are round-cornered piers that support segmental arches. The left bay includes an external stair with round-cornered piers, and there is a dentilled band and cornice above the archway on the right. The first floor features wide segmental-arched openings similar to those on the ground floor, with paired, round-arched small-paned metal windows between the outer bays. A central datestone is present, and the outer bays have piers that rise to support dentilled parapets. The roof is half-hipped, although it has collapsed over the left end. The lean-to on the right side has an archway and a dentilled parapet, with a stair leading up to the first floor; much of this lean-to has collapsed, and its right return has two reused stone brackets.

The rear of the structure has an earlier plinth, and the first-floor windows match those on the front. The outbuilding on the right has raking buttresses, a board door with a hatch above, and a hipped roof. Inside, brick columns support cross-beams, and there are star-braced roof trusses with raking queen struts. The attached yard wall on the right side of the cartshed is approximately 3 metres high, featuring semi-circular brick coping that curves around and ramps down to the gatepier with a stone cap. The attached gabled outbuilding has a pointed-arched window and a doorway in the left return. At the time of inspection in October 1989, the site was derelict.
