Abstract: |
South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) was commissioned by Matthew Steart of Woodward-Smith Architects (the Agent) to undertake limited historic building recording and archaeological monitoring and recording of groundworks carried out as part of a residential development on land at Higher Hunnacott, Landkey, Devon. The site is located to the south-east of Landkey, south of the old Barnstaple to Exeter road, 5km south-east of Barnstaple; towards the base of a shallow north facing valley slope at an altitude of between c.45m and 50m AOD. The historic building and archaeological monitoring and recording identified a number of features reflecting the history and development of Higher Hunnacott. The earliest activity is undated, reflecting the historic division of the site, and may be post-medieval or earlier in date. The vast majority of the site was covered by evidence of post-medieval activity, largely 19th century in date, but with possible earlier origins. This comprised the construction of three ranges of buildings to an existing structure; subsequently developed and altered throughout the 19th century and into the 20th century; these structures largely demolished to be replaced by new buildings, some of which survived into the 21st century. |
