Description
The granary at Oakhurst Farm is a combined cartshed and granary built in the mid-18th century. It features a ground floor constructed of Flemish bond brickwork, while the first floor is timber framed and clad in weatherboarding, topped with a half-hipped peg-tiled roof.
The structure has an open-ended cartshed with three bays above, which is accessed by a 20th-century brick staircase on the northwest side. The southeast and northwest elevations have weatherboarded upper floors with 20th-century metal-framed windows, and the open area below is enclosed by brick side walls.
Inside the cartshed, there are three semi-circular brick niches on each side. The granary consists of three bays, is plastered, and retains some visible original laths along with wooden grain bins.
Historically, Oakhurst Farm was part of the Loxwood Hall estate and served as a main steading owned by the King Family from around 1600 to 1900. This building is depicted on the first edition Ordnance Survey map from 1875.
The granary is of special architectural interest, as it retains its grain bins and is an integral part of a mid-18th century farmstead.
