Abstract:
Building recording of a stone shed to be removed prior to groundworks; and monitoring and recording of the excavation of foundation trenching for a residential development was undertaken by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) at the request of Chris Saunders (the Client). The shed was recorded on the 9th and 10th April 2018, with the trenching monitored on the 1st and 2nd of May 2018. This work was undertaken in accordance with a WSI (Boyd 2018) drawn up in consultation with Stephen Reed of the Devon County Historic Environment Team (DCHET). The site was a rectangular plot of land located c.790m west-south-west of the historic core of Great Torrington, c.58m north-west/to the rear of No.122 Mill Street and south of Torrington Commons. The plot is accessed from its north-west end via a lane off of the B3227/Limer's Hill (Figure 3). Although within an urban fringe area, the predominant soils of the area are the well drained fine loamy or fine silty soils over rock of the Manod Association (SSEW 1983). These overlie sandstone of the Bude Formation (BGS 2018). Great Torrington was a borough by the late 12th century. The site had archaeological potential due to its location behind Mill Street, an important route linking the hilltop town of Great Torrington with the riverside community at Taddiport. Structures are shown at the north-west end of the site on historic mapping from the mid-19th century onwards and tentatively on the 1804 Hartland Surveyors Map.
