Abstract:		 A Level 2 Historic Building Survey was undertaken by the University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) at Bescaby Park, Bescaby, Waltham on the Wolds, Leicestershire. The survey studied the 18th century Bescaby House and its attached and adjacent agricultural buildings consisting of barns, stables and a cart shed. The house, which was built in 1760, has been altered and extended in the 19th and early 20th centuries as have the barns, one of which has been converted from a threshing barn into stables. Internally there is clear evidence of the social separation between master and servant. Bescaby Park represents an interesting example of a self-contained house and farm that were once typical of the local area. It is proposed that the house and buildings are to be extensively renovated to create new living accommodation as well as new uses for the barns including a picture gallery. Bescaby House and two of the adjacent buildings are Grade II listed and because of the extent of the proposed alterations the Senior Planning Archaeologist requested that a Level 2 survey take place before any work commences. The survey work took place on the 2nd and 3rd of April 2009
