Southwest Archaeology, 2005, Berry House Farm, Stoke, Hartland, Devon: Results of an Archaeological Desk-based Assessment and Survey of Buildings, 5.10, 6.2, fig 7, 17 (Report - Assessment). SDV323848.

Small rectangular roadside building of multiple build. It appears to contain fabric suggesting that it is one of the earliest agricultural buildings on the site. Single storey, with gabled roof, aligned north-south. Inserted loft at one end. Semi-coursed rubble stone construction of several phases. The southern end of the east wall is at a slight angle to the main building with the quoins of a blocked doorway to the north. The southern end of the west wall is earlier and thicker and parallel to earlier phase in east wall. Cobbled and flagged threshing floor to the south between opposed doorways of earlier building. To the north are the remains of a flag and cobble floor which does not fit the building, possibly indicating the position of earlier walls. Shown on Tithe Map of 1847.
