Abstract: |
Archaeological monitoring was undertaken by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) at the request of Steve Bain of Kay Eliot (the Agent) on behalf of St Ann's Chapel Cottages Ltd (the Client), at the site of the former Old Chapel Inn, St Ann's Chapel, Bigbury, ahead of the construction of a terrace of three houses and detached dwelling. The archaeological monitoring and recording was undertaken by Dr S. Walls in November 2011 in accordance with a WSI drawn up in reference to a brief issued by Graham Tait of Devon County Historic Environment Service (DCHES 25.10.2011). The development site is within the plot of an Inn of early 19th century date. The pub building incorporates the remains of a regionally important 15th century chapel and a house of 17th/18th century date. The Ordnance Survey map of 1886 indicates that part of the service range (demolished as part of the development) was formerly a smithy. Part of the area of the proposed development underwent an archaeological evaluation by Context One Archaeological Services Ltd in March 2011 (Fairclough 2011). This showed that the area covered by the trench evaluation appeared to be largely truncated during the construction of the existing car park. However, there is a chance that archaeological deposits may have still been present in areas of proposed groundworks that had not been evaluated (particularly near the buildings to the south of the site). |
