Abstract: |
A building recording survey and desk-based assessment was undertaken on farm buildings adjacent to Bushbury Hall, Bushbury, Wolverhampton (NGR SJ 9258 0252). It was undertaken on behalf of James Dunn, who proposes conversion of the buildings for which a planning application has been submitted. The project aimed to record the farm buildings and to assess their significance to aid determination of the development proposals and to assess the potential for the location of buried archaeological deposits. The recording and assessment of the farm buildings at Bushbury Hall has shown that, whilst the buildings may appear to be of little interest, they were constructed as a model farm. These architecturally designed and built farms were a forerunner of the agricultural revolution that took place within the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. The Hall was part of a landscape dating back to the early medieval period with a settlement that had shrunk and evolved throughout the later medieval and post medieval times to become a rural oasis within the conurbation of Wolverhampton. |
