Abstract: |
During masonry repair and conservation works at Old Gorhambury, Bacon''s House, St Albans, Hertfordshire, some of the exposed below ground level structural remains were to be buried and a new drainage sump to be excavated. English Heritage (on behalf of DCMS) consented to the works at this Scheduled Ancient Monument, subject to them being carried out under archaeological supervision. Albion Archaeology was commissioned to undertake these works. Old Gorhambury (Bacon''s House) is centred within the Verulam Estate, to the west of St Albans. The present archaeological works comprised the recording of structural remains in some basement areas and limited archaeological excavation for construction of a new drainage sump and to allow visual examination of foundations. The excavations did not uncover evidence of the earlier buildings on the site. |
