BLACKMORE
TL6001 THE GREEN 723-1/15/53 (East side) 20/02/76 The Barge (Formerly Listed as: BRENTWOOD THE GREEN, Blackmore (South side) The Barge)
GV II
House. C17, possibly earlier. Timber-framed, weatherboarded, roofed with handmade red clay tiles. 3 bays facing NW, with axial stack to left of middle bay, and C18 external stack at right end. One-bay wing to rear of middle bay, and outshuts to each side of it, the whole forming a rectangular plan. Three C20 and three C19 casements in gabled dormers. C20 half-glazed door, with C19 canopy on simple brackets. Gambrel roof half-hipped at left end, forming 2 catslides to rear. The rear elevation has two C19 casements. The external stack has tumbled courses in the shoulders. INTERIOR: chamfered axial beams, with lamb's tongue stops in the left bay only. No other framing is exposed. Wood-burning hearth facing to right, with 0.23m jambs, all plastered. C20 grates to left of it and at right end. 4-plank ledged pine door to stair, C18 or earlier. This house occupies a visually important position at the east end of The Green; its weatherboarded and tiled surfaces retain a village character which some of the other listed houses have already lost (by 1989) owing to inappropriate modernisation. Any future replacement of windows should aim to retain this character.
