Abstract: |
Historic Environment Projects (Cornwall Council) were commissioned by Dr Anthony Bradley to carry out an archaeological watching brief and building record during the removal of part of what was thought to be a possible chimney and the removal of plaster at No. 2, The Square, Chacewater (a Grade II listed building) located at NGR: SW 7508 4440. This work was commissioned to fulfil a condition for listed building consent (Planning Application PA12/01842) which stipulated that a programme of historic building recording and analysis in accordance with a written scheme of investigation was secured and implemented prior to the work taking place. The Grade II listed house is located within the historic core of Chacewater and also lies within the Conservation Area. Another Grade II listed building adjoins the property to the south (No 3, The Square). The building, stylistically, appears to date to the 18th century and has been extended to the rear in the 18th or early 19th century. The watching brief, carried out during the removal of what was thought to be a possible chimney breast in the present bathroom on the first floor revealed that this feature was, in fact, part of the south-east gable end wall. A brief inspection of the walls in the hallway, landing, bathroom and rear bedroom where plaster had been removed as part of the present works revealed the original plan of the building and later historic phases of extension and remodelling. |
