Abstract: |
An archaeological strip, map and sample exercise was undertaken by Northamptonshire Archaeology on land proposed for housing at Home Farm, Highfield Lane, St Albans, Hertfordshire. The work was carried out on behalf of Taylor Wimpey North Thames in July 2009. The excavation revealed the footings of early to mid 20th century farm structures interpreted as pig sties and a related yard area. The former structures, demolished sometime between 1978 and 1985, were part of the still extant Home Farm which had its origins in the 1920s as a hospital farm for the nearby Hill End mental asylum. |
