Higher Uppacott outshot roofing 3 - summary

A behind the scenes look at our recent slate re-roofing - see the full information at: www.stoneroof.o... and www.moorthanmee...
Higher Uppacott is a medieval farmhouse (longhouse) in which both people and cattle were accommodated under a single roof. It has been classed as a Grade 1 listed building of national importance because it is one of the few remaining examples of this historic building type, which has retained its lower or shippon end (cattle shelter) in its original unaltered state.
The longhouse is undergoing sympathetic conservation and interpretation improvements as part of our Moor than meets the eye (MTMTE) Landscape Partnership Scheme, supported by the Heritage Lottery Fund.
