Abstract: |
Following an Archaeological Assessment (September 2012) of Listed Building 14 Teetotal Street, St Ives (an early 19th century pilchard cellar with living accommodation above, undergoing renovation and conversion), Archaeological Recording of the cellar floor was carried out during March 2013. In addition to the two types of pilchard pressing arrangements (pole slots and ledge) previously recorded, an extensive area of cobbled flooring was uncovered, together with a timber-planked base on which barrels of pilchards rested during the pressing process (with runnels for collecting fish oil) and a sunken recess inside the original cellar doorway which appears to been a contemporary loading bay. Later features included post-pads, possible for a bench associated with the cellar's re-use as a store/workshop and a modern drain trench. |
