Concrete Barn nr Foxton Station

History of concrete barn

The barn 200m west of Foxton Station was constructed after the development of the railway in 1851, and before the Ordnance Survey of 1886. It appears to have been constructed in connection with the early cement industry developing in Foxton (and Cambridgeshire more generally) at the end of the C19.
