Wimpole Home Farm, Demonstration farm in Cambridgeshire, England.
The farm features a collection of historical barns, cart sheds, and agricultural buildings spread across the National Trust property at Wimpole Estate.
Sir John Soane designed and constructed the model farm in 1794 for Philip Yorke, the 3rd Earl of Hardwicke, to demonstrate modern farming methods.
The farm maintains rare breeds of livestock including Shire horses, traditional pig breeds, sheep, and cattle as part of British agricultural heritage preservation.
Visitors can observe daily farming activities, explore the Grade II listed buildings, and learn about sustainable agricultural practices throughout the year.
The Great Barn received Grade II* listed status, marking it as a structure of exceptional architectural and historical value within British heritage.
