Abstract: |
A programme of historic building recording was undertaken in advance of conversion works on a series of agricultural buildings at Gate Farm, Bourton on Dunsmore, on behalf of Liz Pittman. The buildings included a threshing barn and in-line cow house, a former shelter shed, and a two-storey building with an ash-lime floor at first floor level. The buildings showed evidence of being remodelled over time, with the western gable of the cow house being rebuilt in its entirety. This was followed by an archaeological watching brief on the groundworks associated with the conversion of the buildings. During this a number of walls and postholes were recorded below the former paved floor of the buildings, suggesting that the paved floors were of a more recent date than at first appeared and for different arrangements of the rooms to their most recent layouts. No evidence for medieval, or earlier, occupation was recorded during the work. |
