Abstract:
In June 2013 AS carried out a programme of historic building recording alongside archaeological monitoring and recording at No. 13 Bridge Street, Bishop's Stortford, Hertfordshire. The work was carried out in advance of the demolition of the existing building and redevelopment of the site. The building had undergone repeated phases of remodelling and rebuilding but evidence indicates it has origins of earlier date and incorporates fragments of an 18th century or earlier structure. The principal phase of rebuilding saw the construction of an early 19th century brick-fronted yet predominantly timber-framed building which utilised imported Baltic softwood and retained certain domestic features such as fire surrounds and wallpaper sequences although all other joinery details and wall surfaces had been lost. Small clues and documentary evidence suggest the western rear ranges were used as a stables in the 19th century, while the eastern areas were later used for light-industrial processes, perhaps associated with the maltings, but all areas retaining some level of residential use, particularly at upper level. The excavation of foundation trenches along the formerly external wall of No. 11 revealed no archaeological remains.
