Description

The east boundary wall attached to Barton Farmhouse and the whirligig, located 0.75 metres from the same at the northern end, are boundary walls likely from the 19th century. They are constructed from local stone rubble, featuring large stones set vertically as copings, and average 3 metres in height. The wall partly forms the rear walls of outbuildings and the east gable of Barton Farmhouse. At the northern end, there is a timber whirligig, which consists of an upright oak post bound with iron at the top and has a four-spoked top designed to restrict the use of the lane to pedestrians. This whirligig is a rare survival and both features are significant elements of this distinctive rural footpath, contributing to the character of the village scene.
