Abstract: |
South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) were commissioned to conduct historic building recording and archaeological monitoring and recording prior to and during demolition of three agricultural buildings at Lower Poole Farm, North Molton, Devon. The work was undertaken to fulfil the criteria of an amended Written Scheme of Investigation previously produced by Wessex Archaeology. The buildings in question form the south and eastern elements of the former farm yard of Lower Poole Farm; most of which were to be demolished prior to the widening of the road to the west of the farm, to allow access to a further proposed development site. The buildings were found to be of no great antiquity and were also of little merit in terms of their construction. Buildings 2 and 3, to the north of the range, may date to the late 17th to 18th centuries, but contained with no datable elements. The proposed earlier domestic function of Building 2 is unlikely and the rounded north-east corner suggests an agricultural function, such as stables or animal housing. |
