 Longbow Barns self-catering Dartmouth Devon Longbow Barns self catering accommodation Dartmouth South Devon. Located in an area of outstanding natural beauty, The South Hams.
It is understood that a farm has existed on the site of Longbow Barns since Saxon times which was listed in the Domesday Book and continued to be a working farm until 1974. It is also believed that the 'Lord of Norton' occupied the farm in Norman times and it formed the centre of the Townstal community which was of great importance in Saxon times because the water margins were then still at risk from Viking raids. The larger barn originally consisted of round stone pillars (Which are still part of the structure today) which would have been boarded in at the first floor level and open on the ground floor. The Elizabethan additions consisted of constructing archways between the pillars and stonework above and Owlway windows were constructed in the first floor stonework to encourage owls to occupy the upper floor where grain would have been stored. http://www.dartmouth-history.org.uk |
