Abstract: |
This document is an archaeological standing building survey of outbuildings associated with 72 Main Street, Lowdham, Nottinghamshire (SK 66789 46758), commissioned from Archaeological Building Recording Services (ABRS) by Mr and Mrs Douglas in advance of the proposed conversion of the buildings to residential use and demolition. The outbuildings associated with No. 72 Main Street are an interesting range of buildings reflecting the small scale industrial activity seen in rural villages in the 19th century. There is a lack of cartographic and documentary evidence to confirm the age of the buildings, physical evidence indicates an early 19th century construction date, but there have been extensive phases of re-building, leaving little of the early 19th century buildings beyond the lower courses of bricks. Internally, the buildings contain no evidence of original plan form or function and apparently, even the roof structures have been renewed. Documentary evidence indicates that the site was originally in use as a wheelwrights workshop, however, the building contains three large weavers windows suggesting the building had been used for framework knitting. |
