Abstract:		 Archaeological monitoring and recording was undertaken by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) during groundworks (foundation trenches) in advance of the construction of a new porch at East Worlington village hall, North Devon. The work was carried out on the 28th March 2019 in accordance with a Written Scheme of Investigation (Balmond 2018) drawn up in consultation with the Devon County Historic Environment Team (DCHET). East Worlington is a small hamlet c.3km east of Witheridge perched above the Little Dart River in the base of its valley. The village hall is located in the centre of this small settlement, at a height of c.140m AOD. The soils of this area are the well-drained fine loamy soils of the Neath Association (SSEW 1983), which overlie the sandstones and siltstones of the Bude Formation (BGS 2019). This Grade II Listed barn has been in community use for over a century, and forms part of the curtilage of the former Rectory (see SWARCH 2012). The former rectory, East Worlington House, has medieval origins: a small two-bay structure was extended in the early 16th century to create a more conventional three-cell cross-passage house; this gained an early 17th century detached kitchen block, and the rectory underwent significant phases of aggrandisement in the late 17th/early 18th and early 19th century. The 1679 glebe terrier mentions 'a barn with mud walls' and the 1727 lists 'a barn of five bays having mud walls and thatch covering' The roof of the barn is much repaired, but the remaining historic elements would suggest a late 16th to mid 17th century date, perhaps coeval with a detached kitchen block (dated to c.1600-40) at the house (SWARCH 2013).
