Abstract: |
South West Archaeology Ltd. was instructed by Martin Sturley of Jonathan Rhind Architects to undertake a desk-based assessment and historic building survey at St Margaret's Church, Northam, Devon, prior to works including the removal of pews and the lowering of the raised plinths and modification of the heating system. St Margaret's was found to retain much of the 19th century seating arrangement and the pipework of the early 19th century Perkins heating system, both of which will be impacted by the proposed works and modified and adapted to the modern requirements of the building. During the removal of the pews and associated works a small vault was found within 'Martha's Corner' just to the west of the present boiler. This was found to date to the 1830s-60s, and had been installed prior to the reordering works and possibly re-opened during the works. |
