Abstract: |
South West Archaeology was commissioned to monitor works undertaken inside and outside the Community Centre building at St David's, Exeter. An archaeological building survey and later assessment of the impact of conversion works on the site and building had been undertaken by South West Archaeology between 2004 and 2010. The works undertaken in 2011 did not substantially alter the earlier phased analysis of the building as set out in the 2005 building survey report or the 2010 impact report. In short; the central block of the building is of the middle Georgian period probably built as a townhouse dated to 1740-1760. There are then additions from the late 18th and early 19th century to the west and east, dated to 1790-1820 when the property was still probably a private dwelling. Further phases from the 1860s, 1880s and 20th century all substantially altered and enlarged the building and coincide with the building becoming first an institution for the blind and then a community centre. |
