Abstract:		 A Level 1 standing building survey was carried out of Dalgig Bridge, built c1870. The bridge is substantially built of quarry-faced ashlar blocks with a vousoir supported arch and ashlar parapets. A Level 3 standing building survey was carried out at Dalgig Farm, Level 1 on ancillary buildings. No formal date for the establishment of the farm can be ascertained but cartographic evidence suggests that Dalgig first appeared during the early 19th century. Its initial primary use was probably as a mill, and the mill would appear to be among the earliest buildings to appear on the site. The cottage which abuts it to the NW post-dates it. The phasing of the outbuildings and the house is uncertain. The farmhouse appears to be of later build but this may be due to the more formal build; it appears on the First Edition Ordnance Survey map, as do all the buildings forming the main farm quadrangle. An evaluation in February 2011 covered the fields around Dalgig (2710m2) and revealed a single linear ditch and the footing of an insubstantial decorative garden wall. No other archaeological remains or deposits were revealed. An evaluation in Feburary 2012 took place following the farm's demolition. 21 trenches were excavated amounting to 815m² The evaluation identified an enclosure wall and a number of cobble/brick surfaces. The enclosure wall appeared to be of the same sandstone and mortar construction as the current farmstead and is likely to have been a garden or yard wall relating to the same phase of development. The surfaces identified either respected the existing buildings or were constructed on top of recent made ground, indicating that they also were contemporary with the current buildings.
