Abstract:		 A documentary survey and archaeological evaluation were undertaken at Swarthmoor Hall. The documentary research revealed that the development site was previously occupied by a large post-medieval barn which had been demolished in 1963. Furthermore, a lithograph, dated to 1829, indicated that the hall itself had once extended further to the west than at present. The evaluation identified the extent of the eastern and southern walls of the barn, and whilst no absolute dating evidence was recovered, there was evidence to suggest the barn was extended in the mid-19th century. There was no evidence for the western extension of the hall in the study area. The complete absence of demolition debris indicated that the site was comprehensively cleared when the barn was demolished and therefore the presence of undisturbed archaeological deposits was considered unlikely.
