Group value: * with Granary formerly to Clemsfold Farm (Grade II). History The Clemsfold Farm complex appears on the Slinfold Tithe Map (1845), marked as Clemsfold with an L-shaped house to the south, a loose arrangement of agricultural buildings and outbuildings to the north and series of ponds to the east. The agricultural buildings depicted include the barn, with a long south-west wing, and the granary with a rectangular footprint. By the First Edition Ordnance Survey Map (1:2500; 1876) the barn had been extended with the addition of an aisle along the south elevation. By the Third Edition Ordnance Survey Map (1:2500; 1912) the barn had lost its south-west wing, and the southern C19 aisle was modified to have two short wings to the east and west. A small lean-to had also been added to the barn’s north elevation. The granary is also shown with an extension to the north. Some smaller buildings in the farmyard had been demolished, and others had been added. By the mid-C20, the farmhouse had become known as Clemsfold House. Also by this time an L-shaped range had been added to the north side of the main barn and attached at its north-east corner. A large Dutch barn had also been built in a field to the west of the main farmyard. In the late C20, Clemsfold House was converted into a care home and heavily extended to the south. It was at around this time the house and main agricultural buildings came into separate ownership. The general arrangement of the farmyard buildings was little altered in the late C20. In the early C21, the mid-C20 L-shaped farmyard range was demolished. The architectural evidence indicates that the barn at Clemsfold Farm was built in around the mid-C17 to mid-C18. It was originally built as a threshing barn of seven bays with pairs of large openings on the north and south sides. There is some evidence of the re-use of earlier timbers in the barn, particularly in the east-end which appears to have been subject to some repair or rebuilding. In around the C19 haylofts were inserted over the east bay and two west-end bays. The lower half of the west-end bays was partitioned-off, the floor level within the bays was raised, and some windows and doors were inserted into the barn’s north and west elevations. The addition of the C19 southern aisle led to the boarding-up of one of the large openings in the barn’s original south elevation. Since the late C19 the main barn appears to have been primarily used for storage, and some stabling, while the later southern range was used as a cattle barn. There is evidence of some reroofing in the C20. Details Barn, built in around the mid-C17 to mid-C18, extended to the north and south in the C19 and C20. MATERIALS: the barn has a timber-frame with weatherboard cladding, a stone and brick plinth, and a large pitched tile roof. The later additions to the north and south have weatherboard-clad and brick walls, with either corrugated-metal roofs with asbestos repairs or pitched tile roofs. PLAN: the barn has a rectangular footprint on an east-west axis. There are seven bays, referred to in this description by number from east (one) to west (seven). There is a small lean-to attached to the north-west and a U-shaped range attached to the south. EXTERIOR: the main barn is of seven bays and stands on a rubble-stone plinth, sections of which have been replaced or reinforced in brick. The frame is weatherboard clad. The north elevation has two full-height double doors in the second and fifth bay. There are two later windows in the first bay. Attached to the west end of the north elevation is single-storey brick and timber stable with a corrugated-metal roof which has partially collapsed. Taking-in doors have been inserted into both of the barn’s gable ends. Three windows have also been inserted into the lower half of the west-gable end. The barn’s original south elevation is obscured by the C19 single-storey corrugated-roof lean-to which has a long brick south wall with two entrances and boarded-up rectangular openings. The lean-to has two small wings at either end. The C20 west wing consists of a catslide lean-to attached to the south-west corner of the main barn, and beyond a pitched-roof structure, both clad in weatherboarding. The C20 weatherboard-clad east wing consists of a catslide-roofed lean-to at one end and a pitched-roof structure at the other which has been widened on one side by the addition of a brick aisle with a corrugated roof. INTERIOR: the main barn’s walls are stud frame and include wall plates, mid (girt) rails, and sill beams. The wall frame above and below the mid rail is braced; most of the braces are straight, squared beams, however, there are also a few arched braces. The barn has a concrete and earthen floor. There are six principal trusses. The original frame has pairs of large posts (at least four of which are jowled), tie-beams with braces, raked struts, clasped purlins and diminishing principal rafters. The posts in the sixth bay, and possibly those in the seventh bay, are not jowled. There are straight plank wind braces to either end of the roof. There is also limited evidence of carpenters’ marks in some of the timbers. Some of the trusses have been reinforced with additional timbers and metal strap hinges, and a few of the braces appear to have been replaced. Over bays two and three, a C20 ridge board has been inserted between the rafters; this replaces the bridle joints which join the rafters throughout the rest of the barn. There is some variation in the scantling of the wall studs and there is evidence of unused mortices in the main horizontal timber beams, which indicates that some of the stud timbers are later replacements. There is also some variation in the scantling to the diminishing principal rafters, indicating that some may have been replaced or reused, and at least one pair is made up of adjoining timbers. The timber in the east-end bay in particular shows evidence of reuse and includes a different arrangement to the principal truss, which has a pair of raked struts as well as a pair of straight struts. The purlins in this bay are also on a different alignment. Later insertions include a hayloft over the east-end bay. At the west end a multi-level hayloft has been inserted over the sixth and seventh and part of the fifth bay; it is accessed by a timber stairway. Below, the two west-end bays (six and seven) have been partitioned off, and the floor level has been raised and covered in blue brick. Within the partitioned area, there are further timber walls and some timber and cast-iron stalls; the walls and ceilings are all matchboard clad. The barn’s former external south elevation has two large openings which correspond with the northern openings. The eastern opening is half-height and the western opening has been boarded over. The former external side of this elevation is weatherboard-clad and covered concrete rendered along the bottom, and is visible in the attached C19 lean-to. The C19 lean-to is attached to the south side of the original barn, includes a cement floor and some concrete stalls, and has C20 wings to either side. There is an internal doorway between the west wing and the main barn. Part of the east wing's roof is constructed of earlier timbers, including two principal trusses with raked struts; this wing first appears on the early-C20 mapping and was probably built reusing earlier timbers. | 010094146517 | 2019-02-28 | 2019-02-26 | |||

In the early C21, the mid-C20 L-shaped farmyard range was demolished. The granary dates to around the early to mid-C19 and was in place by 1845. It was built on the north side of the farmyard. It was extended in the early C20 with addition of a lean-to on its north side. Two pairs of double doors were inserted into the west end of the undercroft at an unknown date. Details Granary, built in around the early to mid-C19, extended in the early C20. MATERIALS: the undercroft is constructed of stone and brick on two sides and timber on the other sides. The granary is timber frame with weatherboard cladding. The early-C20 extension is constructed in brick. PLAN: it has a rectangular footprint on an east-west axis with an addition to the north. EXTERIOR: the building stands on an undercroft which has stone walls with brick quoins to the north and south elevations. The undercroft’s east elevation is clad in weatherboarding and two large pairs of doors have been inserted into the west elevation. The upper part of the granary is a weatherboard-clad timber-frame. The main entrance is in the east-gable end and accessed by a ladder (some of its rungs have been lost); there is also a small vent opening at the apex. There is an opening at the apex of the east gable end which has been boarded up. To the north is an early-C20 brick lean-to. INTERIOR: the undercroft contains two timber posts supporting the floor above and a later timber partition which subdivides the space. It was not possible to access the upper part of the granary; however, early C21 images show that it has two levels. The lower level contains two grain bins with a central walkway and above is a further grain bin. The bins appear to have been subject to later modifications including the reinforcement of supporting posts in the lower-level bins, and the addition of later floorboards to the upper-level bin. The granary is topped by a coupled roof; at least one of the rafters has been replaced. The former north side of the granary is built into a bank and is visible within the early-C20 extension, including a boarded-up central opening into the undercroft; some of the weatherboards on original north wall have been replaced. | 010094146518 | 2019-02-28 | 2019-02-26 | |||

A bronze Crusader's downward-facing sword is superimposed to the front; * Context: occupying a prominent position within Horsham town centre and conservation area and with numerous listed buildings nearby, including the bandstand (listed in 1974 at Grade II) and a number of buildings within the historic centre of Carfax. History: Horsham War Memorial was commissioned by public subscription to commemorate the 359 local men and boys who lost their lives during the First World War. A committee was formed on the 8 January 1919 to discuss the erection of a war memorial but the idea of a memorial to honour their dead was nothing new. It is probable that the council had had this question in mind since the end of 1914, when it was decided, with the assistance of Mr J B Morgan, who was at the time Electrical Engineer, to keep a register of all men joining the forces so that a Roll of Honour might be prepared. It was determined that a memorial in the form of an obelisk should be erected in Carfax and an appeal was launched for public subscriptions to meet the design and construction costs. An initial design for the memorial was created by Mr Arthur Walker but because the proposed design was so expensive it was dropped and the council asked for something simpler. The chosen local architect was Claude Kay who would later team up with Lt. Col Godman to design locally the original Capitol Theatre and Drill Hall. The unveiling was by Major General J C Young, Colonel of the County Regiment, the Royal Sussex, and dedicated by Revd Morley Headlam on 13 November 1921. It was originally situated below the bandstand in the direction of Market Square but was moved to its present position in Carfax in the early 1990s, when the names of the soldiers who died in the Second World War were added. In 2010 the War Memorial was re-dedicated following the extension of the memorial wall with new plaques bearing 60 additional names from the First World War. There is currently (2014) an intention to add the missing names of those who died from the Second World War to the memorial. Details: The memorial consists of a two-stepped base surmounted by a plinth and obelisk, with a large Runic cross incised at the top. A large bronze Crusader's sword is attached to the front west face of the obelisk pointing down. The entire assembly is 17ft high constructed from Hopton Wood stone. The lower base reads ‘IN PROUD AND GRATEFUL MEMORY OF THE MEN OF HORSHAM WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES FOR THEIR COUNTRY’. The north face contains the inscription ‘THE GREAT WAR 1914-1918’; whilst the opposite south side reads ‘THE SECOND WORLD WAR 1939-1945’. The memorial is set within a 12m by 5m area. Behind the obelisk is a brick wall with name tablets set into it. The rest of the area around the obelisk is surrounded by a low wall with a low iron fence on top. The tops of the railings depict poppies in various stages of bloom. On the outer aspect of the rear wall there are a series of ornate metal sculptures, each showing a different theme, sculpted by Edwin Russell. A central stone block on the rear wall has carved in large letters ‘IN PIAM MEMORIAM’. All of these structures contribute to the special interest of the principal structure. It originally had the names of 359 men, who died in the First World War inscribed on three panels around the base of the obelisk, but by 1929 the names on the panels had become worn so it was decided to inscribe the names on a separate stone wall in accordance with a plan produced by C G Atkinson. The obelisk was moved to its present position in Carfax in the early 1990s, when the names of the soldiers, who died in the Second World War, were added. The memorial was also extended in 2010 and now includes an additional 60 names from the First World War.

Reasons for Designation The Dog and Duck public house, Dorking Road, Horsham, West Sussex is listed at Grade II for the following principal reasons: Architectural Interest: * the north-west (rear) range retains a significant proportion of C16 or earlier building fabric, including much of its timber-frame external envelope, as well as evidence of its original internal structure; * the north-west range also includes significant evidence of its historic evolution, such as the addition of a substantial chimney stack in around the C17; * while the south-east range in particular has been subject to various levels of external and internal alterations since the mid-C20, it retains pre-1850s fabric which continues to illustrate the late-C18/ early-C19 expansion of the building. Historic Interest: * it provides good evidence for changing living standards and requirements, as well as for the regional development of building practices and use of materials. History The earliest phase of the Dog and Duck public house is the rear (north-west) range which consists of a timber frame building with a steeply pitched hipped roof. The large-panel timber frame, curved braces and queen-strut roof indicate an original construction date for this range of at least the first half of the C16. It appears the building was originally without a chimney stack; tt was possibly laid out as an open hall, with a floor later inserted over to create a full first floor. A substantial stone and brick chimney stack was added to the north-west side of the building, most likely in around the C17. In the late C18 or early C19 a parallel brick range was added to the south-east side of the building. The Parish of Warnham Tithe Map (1840) shows the building with both the brick and timber frame ranges extant, along with a small extension attached to the south-west end of the rear range. The accompanying Tithe Apportionment identifies the plot as being part of a house and homestead occupied by William Charman and owned by James Charman. James Charman also owned the adjacent C17 building (Old Burcombe; Grade II, List entry 1026893) marked as two tenements. The First Edition Ordnance Survey map (1875; 1:2500) identifies both neighbouring buildings as forming part of the site known as Little Chickens, which may have been related to Upper Chickens Farm, located to the north. On the Second Edition (1898; 1:10560) the building under assessment was recorded as The Dog and Duck, a beer house. It is also shown with a nearby pond (in place since at least the mid-C19) and a well to the north of the building (the well has been covered by a modern well head). In the mid-C20 the front range was extended with an L-shaped, single storey, extension which was added to the front (south-east) elevation. A small porch was also added to the south-west return. During the late C20 a further entrance porch was added to the north-east return of the front range and weather-boarded lean-to additions were added to the north-west side of the rear range. Details Former dwelling, of C16 origins or earlier, extended in the late C18 or early C19, converted to a beer house by the mid-C19. The south-east C20 flat-roof single-storey extension, the C20 pitched roof porches to the north-east and south-east and the C20 lean-too shelters attached to the north-west elevation, and the detached C20 and C21 outbuildings are not included in the listing. MATERIALS: the rear (north-west) range retains a large-panel timber frame, part of the ground floor has been underbuilt in brick, and it is topped by a large hipped tile roof. Attached to the rear range is a brick and stone lateral stack. Most of the internal timber frame has been painted black. The front (south-east) range is constructed of brick laid in Flemish bond under a pitched tile roof. PLAN: the building consists of two principal ranges. To the north-west is a C16 three-bay timber-frame range, with a C17 stack added to the north-west elevation, and a brick addition to the south-west dating to at least the early C19. To the south-east is a parallel late-C18 or early-C19 two-storey range. EXTERIOR: the north-west (rear) range is timber frame and brick, beneath a large hipped roof with gablets. At the ground floor, the north-east end has been underbuilt in brick, and incorporates a late-C20 or early-C21 double-glazed, four-light window. The north-west end has been partially underbuilt in brick but has exposed timber framing, and has further C20 or early-C21 windows and doors. At the centre of the north-west elevation is a large stone stack; the upper stack is rebuilt in brick. To the first floor, large-panel timber frame with large curving braces and corner posts is visible externally and wraps around the north-east and north-west elevations. The panel infills are a combination of rendered panels and painted brick. On the north-west elevation C19 casement windows are set within the timber frame and are likely in the location of earlier openings. At the south-west end is a pre-1840 single-storey brick extension with a pitched roof. The brick late-C18 or early-C19 south-east (front) range, is two-storeys and topped by a pitched roof and tall brick stacks with stepped coping at either end. At the ground floor, the former front (south-east) elevation is obscured. Above, the setback first floor includes a pair of box-frame sash windows with a central blind window. The windows have splayed flat-arched heads with brick voussoirs. Below the roof eaves is a dogtooth course. On the north-east return is a casement window. INTERIOR: the former south-east elevation of the north-west (rear) range has become an internal wall between the rear and front range; it includes large panel timber framing. Some infill panels have been removed to create access points between the two ranges. At the north-east end the timber framing includes posts with matching chamfer and stop decoration which may have been the location of a former entrance, alternatively, they may be reused timbers. The rear range is at a lower level than the front. The ground floor east and central bays are open and have been used as a dining area. The internal faces of the timber wall frames are visible within this room. There are also several substantial transverse beams and joists supporting the floor above. The ceiling over the east end is at a slightly lower level than the rest of the room. There is evidence of various modifications to the ceiling beams, including evidence for the reuse and reinforcement of transverse beams and joists at this level, particularly over the central and west bays. Within the north-west wall is a large fireplace, with a chamfered bressumer with stepped lamb-tongue stops. The inner face of the fireplace is brick, and C20 windows have been inserted into the returns. A wall divides the central and west bay which has been converted to a kitchen and has a high ceiling. There is some timber framing visible on the ground floor of the north-west wall. Further south-west is the pre-1840 pitch-roof extension with a queen-strut roof. The south-east (front) range has been opened up on the ground floor to create a large bar area. The former ground floor external wall has been punched through at various points, and a set of C21 central internal doors have been inserted where the front door used to be. There is a large fireplace at the south-west end with a chamfered-and stopped bressumer. The fireplace is flanked by cupboards with panelled doors. There is a further chamfered-and-stopped transverse beam at this end of the building. The bar counter is C20 and some of the timber beams and central timber posts in this front ran0001 | 200004781263 | 2024-08-07 | 2024-08-07 | |||

Reasons for Designation The former threshing barn at Crookhorn Farm, Shipley, Horsham is listed at Grade II for the following principal reasons: Architectural interest: * it retains a significant proportion of its original timber frame, including elements of the queen-post roof, principal trusses and walling. Group value: * it forms a good group with the associated farmhouse to the west (Grade II; NHLE entry 1476692). History Crookhorn Farm is a historic farmstead located within the historic parish of Shipley. The farmhouse is of C15 origins. The oldest building within the farmyard, located to the north-west of the farmhouse, is the threshing barn with large doors on either side. The timber-frame dates from around the mid-C17 to early C18. Some of the timbers have been replaced, particularly in the gable ends. The floor has been covered in concrete in the C20. The roof has been reclad in modern corrugated metal sheeting. A mid-C18 map of the farm (1751), provides elevational views of the farmstead, including the farmhouse on one side of a pond, and a farmyard to the north-east with a threshing barn on the east side and further buildings on the north-west and south sides of the yard. An early-C19 valuation of the estate (1811) includes a brief description of the house, a weatherboarded barn with stabling (most likely the threshing barn), cattle shed and pig house, dove house and horse stabling. On the Parish of Shipley Tithe Map (1848), the farmyard is depicted with the threshing barn along the east side, with an attached cross wing at its south end, and a further building in the north-west corner of the farmyard. The 1876 Ordnance Survey (OS) map (1:2500) shows a similar arrangement of buildings; with the exception of an additional structure added to the south of the building in the north-west corner of the farmyard. By the 1911 OS map (1:2500) a stable block had been added to the south end of the threshing barn. By the 1976 OS map (1:2500) the cross wing to the south-west of the threshing barn had been demolished, two parallel rows of open-fronted shelters had been built either side of the south end of the farmyard and a detached building had been built to the west of the threshing barn. Details Threshing barn, dating to around the mid-C17 to early C18. MATERIAL: timber-framed structure with weatherboarding, and corrugated metal-clad hipped roof. PLAN: rectangular footprint on a north to south alignment. EXTERIOR: on the east and west elevations are central large double-door openings. There are also additional entrance doors and hatches around the building. The building is topped by a tipped corrugated-metal roof. INTERIOR: the barn has five bays which are defined by pairs of posts with jowled and flush profiles at the top. Braces spring from the posts to support tie beams. Above are raked queen-post struts that support a pair of clasped purlins. Some of the rafters are relatively recent replacements, and the roof has been reinforced with later passing braces and additional purlins. The wall-frame retains studs, wall plates and mid rails. Some of the pegged timbers have been reinforced with iron brackets. Some of the timbers have been replaced and there is also evidence of reused timbers. | 200004791333 | 2025-09-08 | 2022-04-19 | |||

Detached buildings to the south. Reasons for Designation Crookhorn Farmhouse, Shipley, Horsham is listed at Grade II for the following principal reasons: Architectural interest: * it retains substantial amounts of historic fabric within the C15 jettied-wing, C16 hall range and later rear wings; * it is a good example of local building traditions, for example through the Horsham-slate roof and the evidence of different construction techniques in the various phases of timber framing. Historic interest: * the evidence of its evolved plan contributes to our understanding of the development of domestic architecture. Group value: * it forms a good group with the associated former threshing barn to the east (Grade II; NHLE entry 1479286). History Crookhorn Farm is a historic farmstead located within the parish of Southwater. Crookhorn Farmhouse is located on the north-west side of a pond. The oldest part of the house is the jettied north-east corner; the timber-frame indicates that this part of the building dates to around the latter half of the C15. The hall range to the south dates to around C16 and is believed to have been rebuilt on the site of an earlier structure. The building has been further extended to the west, including a lean-to and a two-storey north-west wing to the rear built in around the C17 or early-C18. A mid-C18 map of the farm (1751), provides elevational views of the farmstead, including the farmhouse, a detached building to south-east, and a farmyard to the north-east with a threshing barn on its east side and further buildings to the north-west and south. An early-C19 valuation of the estate (1811) includes a brief description of the house, a weatherboarded barn with stabling (most likely the threshing barn), cattle shed and pig house, dove house and horse stabling. The Parish of Shipley Tithe Map (1848) shows the main house with its current L-shaped footprint and two detached outbuildings to the south and south-east. To the north-east, the threshing barn is still depicted along the east side of the farmyard, with an attached cross wing at its south end, and the agricultural building in the north-west corner of the farmyard is also shown. The 1876 Ordnance Survey (OS) map (1:2500) shows a similar arrangement of buildings; with the exception of an additional structure added to the south of the building in the north-west corner of the farmyard. Later modifications have been made to the arrangement of farm buildings in the C20. Details Farmhouse, of C15 origins, partially rebuilt in around the C16, with later extensions including a C17 or C18 rear wing. Detached buildings to the south. MATERIALS: timber-frame with brick nogging, partially on a stone plinth; topped by a hipped Horsham-slate roof, partially recovered in clay tile to the rear. PLAN: it has an L-shaped footprint. EXTERIOR: a two-storey building with exposed box-framing. The irregular fenestration has various sizes of timber casement windows. The earliest north-east corner is a jettied wing orientated east to west. The east timber-frame includes a jetty bressumer supported by brackets and two substantial first-floor curved braces. On the north return, there is further timber framing, including further curved braces. To the south, and at a right angle to the jetty wing, is the C16 hall range. The box-framing in this wing has slightly thinner scantling and stands on a stone plinth. On the west elevation, there are two doors and evidence for at least one blocked earlier window opening, as well as S-anchor plates. The south return is weatherboard-clad and there is a brick chimney stack with stretcher bond. To the rear of the jettied wing is a C17 or early-C18 gable-end extension which is clad in weatherboarding; on its south elevation is an entrance within a later porch. Attached to the later wing’s west-gable end is a single-storey lean-to with patches of brick and stone walling, and a tall brick stack rising above it. Attached to the west side of the C16 range is a stone single-storey lean-to with a further doorway. INTERIOR: there is exposed timber framing of various phases throughout the building. Where the two principal historic ranges meet, the C15 south-end wall frame was partially replaced when the C16 hall range was rebuilt. Two doors on the east elevation lead into the C16 hall range, and at the north-west, a porch door leads into the rear wing. Throughout are plank doors of various dates with metal strap hinges, set within timber architraves. The two-bay, C15 jettied-wing has brick and stone floors, and the rooms are arranged around a central corridor that contains the principal winder staircase. The two-bay C16 hall range to the south is on a lower level. The central hall bay has a flagstone floor and a chamfered central beam with exposed stops at one end. There is a large central stack with a substantial fireplace topped by a timber bressumer, flanked by partially rebuilt sides and with a modern stove. The south end bay has a large chamfered ceiling spine beam with stepped stops and chamfered joists with similar stepped stops at one end. In the south wall is a brick fireplace with a C19 mantel shelf and modern stove. Along the north wall of the C16 wing, doors in the central and south rooms lead into a lean-to that incorporates a second winder staircase. The rear wing to the north-west has a room with a chamfered and stopped ceiling beam encased in later timbers, and supporting rough-hewn joists. At the west end, within the attached lean-to, is a chimney stack with round brick oven at the base. At first-floor level of the C15 wing are the tops of jowled principal posts. In the centre is a truss with an arched collar supported by a pair of curved braces. To the west is the former rear wall of this wing, now enclosed by the later north-west wing. To the south, the C16 wing has a triple-post roof with clasped purlins and straight bracing; many of the principal roof timbers have carpenters’ marks. Later collars have been added for support. The later wing to the north-west had a tie-beam roof. There are floorboards of various sizes and dates on the first-floor level. | 200004791333 | 2022-05-04 | 2022-04-22 | |||

Historic interest: * the kiln illustrates the economic importance of the formerly navigable River Arun to the town of Pulborough and is a rare surviving example of its C18 riverside commerce. Group value: * with the nearby Willow and Malt House cottages, which respectively date from the C17 and C18. History Lime kilns have been in use since at least Roman times for the burning of lime, chalk, marble and calcite. Draw kilns consist of brick-or-stone-lined kilns in which calcium carbonate is calcined by roasting at high temperature to release carbon dioxide, leaving quicklime. Quicklime is then slaked (hydrated) by mixing with water to become hydrated lime, which is a stable powder. Lime’s traditional uses include as a fertiliser and as a binder for building mortars and washes for walls. Typically the limestone is tipped into the kiln from the top in alternate layers with fuel of wood, coal or coke. As the fuel burns, quicklime descends to the base where it is raked out via arched access tunnels (draw arches or eyes) which also feed oxygen to the fire. The lime kiln on the north bank of the River Arun at Pulborough would have used locally-gathered chalk as a raw material, with the lime output being sold to builders and farmers, or taken down river to the port at Littlehampton. It was probably built in the early-C18 as it appears on the Budgen Survey of the County of Sussex, of 1724. However, this section of the river was straightened to create wharves in the later C16, so it is possible that the kiln is earlier in date. The river was in continuous development by the Arun Navigation Company throughout the C18 and the Pulborough kiln is recorded in 1789, as leased to Thomas Hampton for 99 years at £6 a year. In the C19 the Arun was connected to London by canal, but by the mid-C19 the railway usurped the river as the principal transport route. By the late C19 the dock adjacent to the kiln had probably started to silt up, as it is shown on the 1870 Ordnance Survey map, but not on the 1876 edition. Details An early-C18 lime kiln. MATERIALS: the building has coursed, rubble stone walls, a lime-stained, red-brick ceiling and an earth-covered roof. PLAN: the kiln is square and consists of two, side-by-side chambers which are orientated north to south. They are interconnected by two low-level draw eyes which can be seen from the eastern chamber. This chamber also has doorways to the east and south (facing the River Arun). On the western side of the kiln there is a bank on which an informal path rises and intersects the top of the western chamber. The roof here would have had an opening to allow charging with layers of charcoal and chalk. The roof is now overgrown, and the opening is no longer evident. EXTERIOR: the kiln is around 5m in height and the walls are around 11m long. The doorways are round-headed with a red brick architrave. The top of the southern doorway is damaged. The roof is earth-covered. INTERIOR: the eastern chamber has a barrel-vaulted ceiling, which is constructed of brick in a heading bond, with a u-shaped metal bracket at its centre point. The end walls are coursed stone as are the side walls, up to around 1.5m in height. The wall that connects the two chambers has two, round-headed brick draw eyes set in a brick panel. The floor is formed of packed earth. The western chamber has probably been infilled with earth. | 010013791946 | 2021-12-22 | 2021-12-16 | |||
