The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Propriété de l'abbaye de Marmoutiers, ce bâtiment était la "gréneterie", sorte d'entrepôt où les moines emmagasinaient les récoltes de leurs domaines. On distinguait la grande et la petite gréneteries. Seule cette dernière subsiste. C'est une construction qui paraît être un remaniement du 15e siècle sur un édifice du 14e, comme semble l'indiquer la modification des ouvertures des façades. L'aile occidentale a dû être ajoutée au 15e siècle, ainsi qu'une tour d'escalier à l'angle du pignon central.

Property of the abbey of Marmoutiers, this building was the "gréneterie", a sort of warehouse where the monks stored the harvests from their estates. One distinguished the large and small gréneteries. Only this latter survives. It is a construction which appears to be a reworking of the 15th century on a building of the 14th century, as the modification of the openings of the façades seems to indicate. The western wing must have been added in the 15th century, as well as a staircase tower at the angle of the central gable.
