Abstract: |
As part of a planning submission (reference 5/05/1234) for the redevelopment of The Old Bakehouse, 2c Main Street (also referred to as 3 Beetham Road), Milnthorpe (NGR SD 49725 81495), Oxford Archaeology North (OA North) was commissioned by Hanson Marston Mellor Architectural Design Consultants, on behalf of Mr IN Gunby, to undertake a programme of archaeological investigation prior to, and during, the proposed development. The programme was established in consultation with Cumbria County Council Historic Environment Service (CCCHES) and accordingly, OA North compiled a project design for a rapid desk-based assessment and a watching brief to be maintained during groundworks. The rapid desk-based assessment, undertaken in December 2008, covered a radius of 500m around the proposed development site. As a result of the assessment, 19 sites of cultural heritage interest were identified within the study area, mostly historic buildings. The watching brief was undertaken in November 2008 and July 2009 during groundworks associated with the redevelopment of the site. This identified evidence of masonry walls for a cellar. These were located beneath and adjacent to demolition deposits and although it is possible that they form elements of the building plotted on Blount's map of 1826, it is possible that this reflects a later nineteenth- or even an early twentieth-century redevelopment of the site. No other significant archaeological remains were exposed during the watching brief. Further development groundworks were undertaken in the summer of 2010, but it was agreed with the CCCHES that these would not require further monitoring. |
