The origin of the Field the Stores goes up at the end of the XVIIIème century. The whole of the grounds, had around since approximately 1650 by the family of the lords of Bram, of Lordat, formed a field of 39 hectares exploited by a sharecropper and bordered since 1681 by the Royal Channel of the Two Seas (Channel of the South). In 1766, Louise-Marguerite Colbert de Seignelay, widow of Joseph-Marie de Lordat, had the idea to benefit from the goods traffic, forwarding daily by the water way, with the Port locality of Bram. It gave in lease to Antoine Barascou, trader of Castelnaudary, a broad plot of land; with load for him to make there build “a store to store, before their transfer on the barges of the Channel of the South: corn, wood, iron and other goods. This store included/understood also a housing for one or more clerk or employees, a court, a stable and generally all that will be necessary to the exploitation and use of the known as stores ". Work began, but the trader chaurien was, for various reasons, incompetent to conclude them. After a lawsuit which lasted 6 years (of 1778 to 1784), the count François de Lordat recovered the ground and completed the construction of the buildings in 1785 according to a redefined plan. Until second half of the XXème century, this whole of buildings knew only few modifications, related for the majority to the evolutions of the contiguous farm. Fallen in ruin since several ten years, the field is practically renovated now and at summer adapted internally to the modern life nowadays.
All the rooms have each one their bathroom in continuation with shower or bath-tub and WC. Sight on the Channel of the South or the Pyrenees or the black mountain.
