Building record 1501000000 - 25 Station Road, Quainton

Originally a C19 weatherboarded barn which may have been originally associated with the Old
Farmhouse complex, now converted to a domestic dwelling. Single storey with a steeply pitched
gable roof laid in tiles, the ridgeline of which runs parallel with the carriageway. The base of the
barn is constructed of stone with weatherboarding above. Despite its conversion to a domestic
dwelling, the building maintains the simple clean outlines associated with utilitarian outbuildings.
Window openings have been inserted into the elevation facing the road. The roof plane is
uninterrupted by openings which helps to reinforce the buildings former utilitarian character. It is a
visually prominent building located close to the road edge at the southern edge of the village. It
forms part of a group of utilitarian outbuildings (which have been converted to domestic use) which
reflect the former importance of agriculture as to the mainstay of the village’s economy. Local Heritage Asset in conservation area (1).
