Cart bays, North Callange, Fife |
One
cart bay was thought to correspond to 70 acres of arable land. The
eight bays here suggest a farm of some size. The space above the cart
bays provided a secure, dry and well-ventillated space for storing
grain.
This kind of 19th century housing became redundant with the development of larger, 20th century farm equipment. This site has since been converted for housing. |
