Details

SE 82 SW TWIN RIVERS CHURCH LANE (south side) Adlingfleet 1/27 Stone building approximately 25 metres south of Church House 14.2.67 (formerly listed as old building in garden of Church House or Farm, Adlingfleet Parish)

GV II*

Outbuilding, probably part of former house. Medieval, probably C13, with reset C12 arch; later alterations, including insertion of south gable end and insertion or replacement of first floor. Roof removed c1970. Limestone ashlar and coursed rubble with south gable end of red brick. Rectangular on plan, single room with original entrance to east. Approximately 6 metres north-south by 4 metres east-west. 2 storeys. West side: 2 first-floor openings. Round-headed chamfered arch to left with plain hoodmould. Section of gable drip course above. Blocked square-headed opening above right with first-floor window above, and smaller first-floor window to right; both windows beneath fragmentary wall plate. East side: wall seriously damaged, with outer face collapsed to left. Inserted board door to right of centre. First floor has central door with brick blocking below, flanked by window to right and smaller window to left. North gable end (partly obscured at time of resurvey) has small blocked chamfered square- headed ground-floor opening to right, moulded string course at first-floor level. South gable end is inserted between side walls: ground floor obscured at time of resurvey; first floor has small blocked square-headed opening, fragmentary opening to head of gable. Eaves and gable verges partly ruinous. Roof missing. Interior. North side has pair of blocked openings, apparently doors, beneath oak lintels; wide blocked opening with ashlar jambs to first floor. Ashlar surround to blocked opening in west wall. Stands alongside the former east bank of the old River Don, navigable here in the Middle Ages. Marked as "Ware House" on OS 1:2,500 map, but probably part of a former domestic complex perhaps that built by John le Franceys, rector of Adlingfleet, who in the mid C13 demolished Whitgift Church and, "scattering the stones of the sanctuary, caused them to be carried away to Adlingfleet and built a chamber (camerum) for himself". Such an origin might explain the C12 doorway. A remarkable survival: one of Humberside's few standing medieval secular buildings, and the only one in the low-lying Marshland region of the lower Trent and Ouse valleys. Suffering from serious neglect; partially ruinous and in immediate danger of further collapse at time of resurvey (April 1987). Masonry removed from the building has been used for a wall extending from the south-east corner eastwards to the side of Garthorpe Road.
