Abstract:
South West Archaeology Ltd. was commissioned to undertake historic building recording and archaeological monitoring during remediation works on Clyst William Barton Farmhouse, Plymtree, Devon. This work was undertaken in advance of, and during, stabilisation and repairs to the structure. Clyst William was a Domesday manor which, by the mid-16th century, was in the possession of Polsloe Priory. Three medieval hall houses had been built here in the mid-15th century, of which Clyst William Barton was one. The roof is dated to 1450, and as all three farmhouses at Clyst William were built at a similar time this represents a major phase of investment. In 1529 one of the houses was leased to the Salter family, and in 1615 they bought the estate from the then landowner. The Salters remained in possession until the late 18th century, whereupon it formed part of the estate of Sir John Kennaway of Escot, and later John Fortescue Pierce; the Prouse family leased the property for much of the 19th century. The major remediation works undertaken here - while regrettable in many ways - have afforded a unique insight into the development of this building in a way standard building recording is rarely able to achieve. It has demonstrated this was a mid-15th century medieval hall with detached (kitchen) block, linked together in the early 17th century to form a single range through the construction of a new kitchen. The functions of the rooms were inverted in the 18th century, with the former service rooms elevated to polite use as the house was turned away from the farmyard to overlook its gardens. The work undertaken in the 19th century completely renovated the former detached block in a further phase of gentrification.
