Granary Approximately 30 Metres South South East of Number 59 (Not Included)

This is a small granary, likely dating to the mid-to-late 18th century. It stands approximately 30 metres south-southeast of number 59 Wood Green. Constructed of a light timber frame with red brick infill, the granary has a stone tile roof and rests on limestone staddle stones; three are positioned at each end, three along the sides, and one beneath the centre of the building. The staddle stones have rectangular uprights with chamfered edges.

The granary is a two-bay, lightly box-framed building. Some of the red brick infill panels are probably original, although others, particularly on the north gable wall, were renewed in the 19th century. The roof is half-hipped and covered with local stone tiles. A planked door in the centre of the west side leads into a yard, accessed by wooden steps that are of approximately 2000 years old and not of great significance. Small, shuttered windows are located in the south and east walls.

Inside, the roof features a heavy truss with principal rafters linked by a tie beam above the door. A boarded floor remains, and some sections of wall boarding survive up to near wall plate level. Grain bins are visible in the north half of the granary; one is marked with the inscription 'S.S 1862'.

Historical records suggest the granary was likely built in the 18th century alongside a farmhouse, probably connected to what is now number 61 Woodgreen Hill. Ordnance Survey mapping from 1876 indicates the granary stood against the east boundary wall of a rear yard, which was later divided by the construction of numbers 59 and 61 Woodgreen Hill, resulting in its present, narrower setting.

This granary is a good example of a farm building of specialist function and vernacular character, built from local materials and retaining some original interior features. The building’s relatively unaltered state and connection to a former working farmhouse contribute to its significance.
