Corps in the sense meaning the body of the farm. I thought it has something to do with the central courtyard which the house, barn, grange and pigeonnier often have.
If you live in the country quite often you will live in a collection of buildings like ours, or even just the barn which is like the house we live in. From left to right you have the pigeonnier, then what we call the dependance next where the two outside cats sleep, the grange, our house which was the barn and then to the right is the the gite, originally the farmhouse. Although the front door of the gite leads in to our courtyard, this door is left locked and the renters use a front door on the other side.
