Dist:0.7km<br/>This is a crop drying installation, quite old by the look of it. For drying wheat, barley etc so that it will store for many months. 14.5% will be the desired moisture content. Grain can be harvested up to 20%. Over this it becomes very expensive to dry. (information supplied by Michael Trolove)

Dist:0.8km<br/>Cowling Hall, built sometime after the Raper family took over the manor C.1665. They demolished an earlier manor house, built by the Ayscough's, of which the northern wing was retained as servants quarters & stables. The Hall was remodelled again in the early 18thC with strengthened walls, a new roof, and a more classical appearance.

Dist:0.8km<br/>More correctly this is in fact the north wing of a manorial complex built in the 14thC by the Ayscough family. The old manor house,a castellated gatehouse and a southern wing have long since been demolished. The garden wall in this photo was once much taller, and it was also castellated. Cowling is an ancient settlement, it was held pre-conquest by Earl Edwin of Northumbria, and by Robert de Munster, the servant of Count Alan of Brittany in 1086.
