Abstract: |
An historic environment desk based assessment was carried out during July and August 2016 at Abbey Cottages, Abbey Precinct, Church Street, Tewkesbury, Gloucestershire to assess the implications of a proposed extension to the rear of the property. The study site comprises a dwelling (with garden) built around the early 19th century and incorporating a length of masonry wall formerly interpreted as part of the precinct boundary of St Mary's Abbey. The assessment concluded that the wall was likely to have originally formed part of an earlier building, possibly connected with the Almonry, one of a number of other buildings listed for retention at the time of the Dissolution. Although the proposed development is of a modest scale there is potential for excavation to impact on highly significant medieval remains comprising principally walls and floor surfaces associated with a former medieval building connected with the abbey. |
