Building record 193/3 - Haymoorgreen Farmhouse, Wybunbury Lane

Grade II listed farmhouse. Built prior to 1626 when the deeds commence. Timber framed with wattle and daub infill and a brick extension. Wood was in plentiful supply as a building material in Britain until the 17th century. It was therefore the most practical material for house building. Timber framed buildings consist of a wooden framework (usually oak) that was infilled to created solid walls. Infill material used included wattle and daub, lath and plaster, brick and weather board. Brick nogging, (brick infill) was often used in the 17th and 18th centuries to replace earlier wattle and daub or lath and plaster infill as it was longer lasting.
