Abstract: |
Border Archaeology (BA) has been instructed by Susan Caspi (My Construction Ltd) to carry out a programme of Archaeological Standing Building Recording (ASBR) to Historic England Level 2 of Nos. 43-45 High Street, Leominster, Herefordshire. In spite of later alterations, Nos. 43 and 45 High Street retain a significant quantity of early fabric dating to the late 16th-early 17th century and much of the original internal layout has survived. Of particular interest is the survival of painted wall decoration in No. 45, concealed by later lath-and-plaster work, which can probably be assigned an early 17th century date and represents an important survival. It is recommended that appropriate measures should be taken to stabilise and conserve the wall paintings prior to conversion of the buildings. |
