  • Well House Cottage, Wellhouse Lane, Headbourne Worthy, Winchester. Historic Building Recording (OASIS ID: cotswold2-407227)
    2021
    Co-Authors: Cotswold Archaeology
    Abstract:

    In June 2020 Cotswold Archaeology was commissioned by Wykeham Homes to conduct a Level 2/3 historic building recording of the cottage and farm buildings at Well House Cottage, Headbourne Worthy. The buildings date to the later part of the 19th century and are not included on Historic Englands National Heritage List for England. The recording has been undertaken as a condition of the grant of Planning Permission by Winchester City Council in July 2020 for the demolition of extant structures to facilitate redevelopment (Planning reference: 20/00845/FUL). The scope of the recording has been agreed through a Written Scheme of Investigation (WSI) with the Councils Historic Environment (Archaeology) Officer, Tracy Matthews. The Site includes Well House Cottage, a domestic dwelling, and outbuildings, arranged around a regular courtyard. To the south of the group lies a large Dutch barn which is outside of the scope of this assessment. The traditional buildings were built as a functional farm group in the 19th century, with the Dutch barn added in the mid-20th century. Some of the outbuildings were later converted to commercial uses, independent of the cottage. An appraisal is presented for the small farmstead, together with an identification of the significance of the constituent buildings. Whilst the farmstead has some value in terms of its landscape amenity, its heritage significance, and that of the buildings, are considered to be low in comparison with the rich legacy of agricultural structures within Hampshire. The recording has described the exterior and interior arrangement and fabric for each of the buildings, as well as provided photography of the elevations and features which have been keyed to an annotated plan. The recording has also provided some commentary and discussion on the former use/s of the buildings and their, development over time, as well as their relationships to one another

  • The Old George, Stony Stratford, Milton Keynes: Building Recording (OASIS ID: cotswold2-383327)
    2020
    Co-Authors: Cotswold Archaeology
    Abstract:

    In September 2019 Cotswold Archaeology was commissioned by CMI Architecture to undertake a programme of Historic Building Recording in respect of The Old George, Stony Stratford, Milton Keynes. The Historic Building Recording was undertaken to form a record of those parts of the building to be altered by proposed amendments to an existing development scheme for a two-storey rear extension to provide four new guest bedrooms and a new cellar at the existing public house with minor internal alterations and removal of two bay windows on the single storey rear extension. A previous programme of Historic Building Recording was undertaken in August 2019 to fulfil a condition attached to Planning Permission (16/02969/FUL) and Listed Building Consent (16/03032/LBC) for the development of a two-storey rear extension to provide four new guest bedrooms

  • Barns at Preston Capes Road, Adstone, Northamptonshire. Historic Building Recording (OASIS ID: cotswold2-407274)
    2020
    Co-Authors: Cotswold Archaeology
    Abstract:

    In July 2020 Cotswold Archaeology were commissioned by Nineteen47 to undertake a Historic England defined Level 2 Historic Building Recording in relation to a range of traditional agricultural buildings situated to the east of Preston Capes Road, approximately 1km north of the village Adstone, Northamptonshire. The buildings are not included on Historic England's National Heritage List for England, nor are they located within a Conservation Area or a local list of non-designated heritage assets. This Historic Building Recording has been undertaken in order to fulfil a recommended Condition for building recording, associated with the grant of Planning Permission in respect of Planning Application (Ref: S/2020/0707/FUL). The programme of recording has a particular focus on the Buildings present by the 1880s. The Site currently comprises a group of ten Buildings representing a complex of historic agricultural structures, mainly of stone construction with corrugated and slate roofs, including a now empty dwelling (a late 18th early 19th century cottage). The Buildings are arranged into three groups, at the west aspect of the Site is the late 19th century Cottage with late 20th century extensions and additions with a late 19th/early 20th century agricultural Building to its north. The central group of Buildings comprise late 20th century agricultural and outbuildings. The east aspect of the site comprise a stone range of agricultural buildings arranged into an open courtyard. The Buildings are of interest as a post-Enclosure farmstead, laid out in a regular courtyard arrangement and primarily used for animal husbandry. The farmstead is likely to belong to the final phase of the enclosure process, whereby small landholdings were consolidated into larger farms. The historic agricultural structures retain physical evidence of their former function, and the use of vernacular materials and methods of construction is characteristic of rural Northamptonshire

  • Chevithorne Barton, Tiverton, Devon: Historic Building Watching Brief (OASIS ID: cotswold2-309274)
    2018
    Co-Authors: Cotswold Archaeology
    Abstract:

    In 2016 Cotswold Archaeology was commissioned by Morgan Evans LLP on behalf of Mr and Mrs Heathcote Amory, to carry out a watching brief on demolition works in the Jacobean house of Chevithorne Barton, nr Tiverton, Devon and to provide a record of any features revealed. This was to fulfil conditions applied by Exeter City Council to Listed Building Consent and Planning Permission granted in 2016 for works of demolition, rebuilding and refurbishment on the site. The major works were the removal of most of the 19th to 20th century additions to the rear of the house and the provision of new footings to the replacement structures. In addition the 19th/20th century partitions in the 19th-century wing were re-organised and 1930s work was distinguished from the 19th-century works. One section of window reveal panelling was temporarily removed in the Oak Room, allowing a record to be made of the masonry behind it and the details of the joinery. This supported the view that the panelling is later than the date of the house. On the upper floors repair and replacement of floorboards allowed details of the floor beams and joists to be noted. The watching brief results clarified some issues on the structural history of the house and in particular showed that the north wall of the west wing had retained 17th-century fabric in the ground floor and lower part of the first floor. Unfortunately, the removal of 19th- and 20th-century elements here also resulted in the removal of this fabric on the ground floor

  • Christ Church, New Houghton, Pleasley, Derbyshire. Historic Building Recording (OASIS ID: archaeol5-341071)
    2021
    Co-Authors: Ian Wyre, Shannon Birds
    Abstract:

    In January 2019, Archaeological Research Services Ltd was commissioned by Mr Stuart Hill to complete a Historic Building Recording in order to discharge a condition of Planning Permission granted by Bolsover District Council (Planning application number 18/00293/FUL). The application is for the demolition of a late 19th century former church and subsequent erection of 4 residential dwellings, with associated groundworks, at Christ Church, New Houghton, Pleasley, Derbyshire. The report outlines and discusses the on-site historic building recording work carried out. This report also includes background research and a photographic survey record. The Historic Building Recording of Christ Church, New Houghton, has been conducted to Historic England Level 2 standard. It investigated the exterior and interior of the former church building and provided information relating to the history of the building and its development which can be summarised as follows Phase 1 - 1898 The Church of Christ Church is opened Phase 2 - c1898-1918 organ bay added Phase 3 - c1961 a new community centre building is linked to the north of the church

  • Clayton Hospital, Wakefield, West Yorkshire. Historic Building Recording (OASIS ID: archaeol5-318560)
    2020
    Co-Authors: Ian Wyre, Shannon Birds
    Abstract:

    In February 2018, Archaeological Research Services Ltd was commissioned by Wakefield Grammar School Foundation to undertake a historic building recording of the site of Clayton Hospital, Wakefield. The requirement for the historic building recording was to fulfil a condition of Planning Permission approved by Wakefield Metropolitan District Council which sets out a scheme for the re-purpose and part demolition of the Clayton Hospital buildings, which are a non-designated heritage asset subject to significant deterioration from repeated theft, vandalism and arson. The historic building recording of Clayton Hospital has produced a substantial descriptive and photographic record from which a significant resource is now available for historical and architectural analysis. The study of the building's spatial development over its hundred and thirty year operational lifespan also illustrates great scientific, technological and social change. The Level 2 recording (Historic England 2016) mitigates the potential loss of historic fabric from re-development, providing a high level of preservation through record and informing future conservation programmes, these required in the sympathetic repair and protection of the historic administration range complete with its significant ornamented tower designed by Thomas Bakewell (1839-1925)

  • Plot 3, Jetting Street, Milltown, Ashover, Derbyshire. Historic Building Recording of Retaining Walls (OASIS ID: archaeol5-371921)
    2020
    Co-Authors: Emma Grange, Shannon Birds
    Abstract:

    Archaeological Research Services Ltd was commissioned in February 2019 to undertake a historic building recording of the heritage structures in the retaining walls at Plot 3, Jetting Street, Ashover, Derbyshire. The historic building recording was undertaken as a condition of Planning Permission prior to the construction of one detached dwelling on Plot 3. Four main phases of construction have been identified at the site. The first relates to the survival of a limekiln archway of later 19th century date. In the second phase the site formed the location of the loading facility for Miltown Quarry which operated between the late 19th century and the 1930s, when a screen/crusher building was constructed on top of the earlier limekiln archway. A subsequent phase of development comprised the blocking of the access route to the quarry which is evident in the south western retaining wall. The latest phase is evident along the north western retaining wall where there is a series of recessed grooves which relate to hoppers and chutes used for loading waggons which formed part of the Ashover Light Railway's mineral line which served Milltown Quarry

  • Highfields Farm Barn, Stoney Middleton, Derbyshire. Historic Building Recording (OASIS ID: archaeol5-390638)
    2021
    Co-Authors: Evelyn Lynch, Ian Wyre
    Abstract:

    In February 2020 Archaeological Research Services Ltd was commissioned by Property Renovators (UK) Ltd to undertake a historic building recording of a detached range of traditional farm buildings located to the south west of the village of Stoney Middleton, Derbyshire to discharge condition 11 of the Planning Permission to convert the existing farm buildings to contribute new holiday accommodation. In terms of fabric evidence it can be assessed that the small farm complex was predominantly developed over the course of the 19th and 20th centuries which included upwards of five distinct construction phases. The historic building recording of Highfields Farm Barn provides a descriptive, drawn and photographic record of the buildings occupying the site and provides a comprehensive preservation by record of the former farm buildings prior to conversion works taking place

  • Holy Family Catholic Primary School, Mansel Road West, Millbrook, Southampton. Archaeological Evaluation (SOU1707)
    2021
    Co-Authors: Andy Russel, Artur Fedorowicz, Emma Anderson
    Abstract:

    The Archaeology Unit of Southampton City Council carried out an evaluation excavation at land to the north of Holy Family Catholic Primary School, Millbrook in February and March 2016. The site lies in an area of prehistoric and later archaeology, and an archaeological evaluation was required as a condition of the Planning Permission. Natural brickearth was 0.2m below the surface in all trenches. Its upper portion had been subject to weathering and bioturbation and was about 0.5m thick. The lower portion was clean brickearth and was at least another 0.5m thick. The weathered brickearth contained flint flakes and burnt flints indicating prehistoric activity in the area. Four features were identified: two probably were tree disturbances; one may have been a ditch but was not convincing, and the other was a modern soakaway. One burnt flint was recovered from the possible ditch. No significant finds except a few prehistoric flints were found. No features of definite archaeological significance were revealed so it is unlikely that the development will cause damage to archaeologically significant remains

  • Land north of Atherfield Road, Shirley, Southampton. Archaeological Evaluation (SOU1679)
    2021
    Co-Authors: Andy Russel, Emma Anderson
    Abstract:

    The Archaeology Unit of Southampton City Council carried out an evaluation excavation of land north of Atherfield Road, Shirley, Southampton, in January 2015. Neighbourhoods Division, Southampton City Council have Permission to construct a car parking area for 26 cars on open amenity land under Application 14/01301/R3CFL. The site lies in an area of scattered prehistoric occupation and activity and an archaeological evaluation was required as a condition of the Planning Permission. Four trenches were excavated to give a 14% sample of the area to be disturbed. The natural gravel was observed in all the trenches, and was situated some 0.4m-0.55m below the surface. The gravel was cut by seven features. Six possibly were of prehistoric date, comprising two irregular linear features, two irregular pits, one possible post-hole and one shallow circular pit. With the exception of the possible post-hole all the features contained burnt flint. The shallow circular pit produced abundant charcoal, burnt flint and 14 small possible waste flakes from flint-working. One modern feature was observed in the northern end of Trench 4, and a series of modern layers were observed above the natural

  • Rear of 1 Padwell Road, Southampton. Archaeological Watching Brief (SOU1712)
    2020
    Co-Authors: Andy Russel, Emma Anderson
    Abstract:

    Goodwill Homes Ltd obtained Planning Permission to construct a 2-storey detached 3-bed house with accommodation in the roof space, associated parking and cycle refuse storage, at the rear of 1 Padwell Road, Southampton. The property had been The Avenue public house until recently. The pub, in the north part of the property was constructed in the late 19th century as part of the development of the Inner Avenue area on the grounds of Bevois Mount. Prehistoric, Roman, Saxon and medieval evidence has been found in the vicinity, including Saxon pottery on a nearby site at 14-16 Mordaunt Road. The Archaeology Unit of Southampton City Council carried out the watching brief between 18/04/2016 to the 20/04/2016. Prior to calling in the archaeologist the developer had excavated the footprint of the proposed building to a depth of 600mm removing the topsoil and the weathered brickearth subsoil which could have included archaeological artifacts and features. Natural gravel was observed some 1.1m below the surface. Above was natural brickearth some 400-500mm thick. Six features were dated to the early modern period: a circular soakaway, a large rectangular pit, part of the foundation of one of the outbuildings shown on the 1870 map, and three small pits. A soakaway, a post-hole, and the topsoil were dated to the modern period

  • Sholing Junior School, Middle Road, Southampton. Archaeological Watching Brief with Option to Excavate (SOU1708)
    2020
    Co-Authors: Andy Russel, Emma Anderson
    Abstract:

    Capita Property and Infrastructure obtained Planning Permission to build an extension to existing school buildings at Sholing Junior School, Middle Road, Southampton. Redevelopment included the construction of a 2-storey extension to the south facing elevation to provide 4 additional classrooms and associated facilities. The site lies in Area 16 of the Local Areas of Archaeological Potential as defined in the City of Southampton Local Plan and Core Strategy 2010. Several prehistoric, Roman, Saxon, and medieval finds and sites have been found within 1 kilometre of the site. Of particular interest was a possible Bronze Age burial mound some 60m to the northeast of the site and the possibility of others in the area. The Archaeology Unit of Southampton City Council carried out the watching brief with option to excavate on three days in February and July 2016. The natural was Wittering Formation, and was observed in all trenches. Above it was a weathered natural consisting of a light grey sandy clay and gravel. One layer of an uncertain date was observed and may have been an interface between the relict top soil above, and the natural below. A layer of light grey soil with brick fragments was possibly modern or early modern. This layer may have been the remnants of a lower topsoil horizon, possibly suggesting that the area was heathland. One layer of tarmac/gravel/sand was at the top of the sequence and was dated to the modern period

  • Snitterton Hall Farm, Darley Dale, Derbyshire: Historic Building Recording (OASIS ID: archaeol5-371854)
    2020
    Co-Authors: George Nuth
    Abstract:

    Archaeological Research Services Ltd was commissioned in 2019 by Fisher German LLP to undertake a historic building recording, to Historic England's Level 2 standard, of two traditional farm buildings at Snitterton Hall Farm, Snitterton, Matlock, Derbyshire, DE4 2JG to discharge condition 3 of both the Planning Permission and Listed Building Consent (Application Ref. Nos. NP/DDD/1217/1256 and NP/DDD/1217/1257 respectively) prior to the conversion of the two buildings into a dwelling house, office and light industrial use, along with the provision of car parking. Snitterton Hall Farm is a large-scale, regular courtyard plan farmstead comprising an Lshaped barn layout with the stable block occupying the third side of the courtyard. The farmstead itself has undergone alterations in order to adapt to changing needs, as well to accommodate for the expansion of the farm itself. This involved the addition of structures to the north, west and east of the barns which block out certain earlier features in the barn buildings. Historic mapping and analysis of the historic fabric reveal that both Barns A and B were constructed in two individual phases; stylistically they both still appear to date to the late 17th or early 18th century. Evidence of a building break on the northern part of Barn B, as well as slight differences in materials, suggests that this structure predates Barn A
