Abstract: |
An archaeological monitoring and recording was undertaken by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) at the request of Parkes Lees Architects Ltd. (The Agent) on behalf of the PCC of St. Peters (The Client), during the improvements of drainage to St Peter's Church, Lamerton, Devon. This work was undertaken by J. Bampton on the 13th of October 2013 in accordance with a Project Design drawn up by SWARCH and with reference to IFA guidelines. The works subject to archaeological monitoring entailed the excavation of two test pits located at junctions of the existing drainage system at which access points would be made to allow for the drains to be periodically flushed out. The church underwent restoration in the mid 19th century, which was completed in 1876. A fire in 1877 destroyed most of the church. The tower, although burned survived and the window at the east end of the south aisle also predates the fire. |
