Abstract: |
The report describes the results of a programme of archaeological excavation undertaken at Court Hey Park, Roby Merseyside. The project was undertaken on behalf of The Friends of Court Hey Park and Knowsley Borough Council as part of the Gladstone Roots Project and was a designed as a programme of community archaeology aimed at allowing members of the public to participate in archaeological excavation. The excavation aimed to locate and record remains belonging to Court Hey Hall. The Hall was originally constructed for Robert Gladstone (1805-1875), brother of William Ewart Gladstone, and was an imposing L-shaped building constructed in red sandstone Little evidence for the Hall existed above ground, though its site is accurately known from cartographic evidence and there was some evidence for its internal layout, including basements. |
