Abstract: |
Archaeological monitoring and recording was undertaken by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) at the request of a private client during groundwork associated with the relaying of yard and track surfaces and the excavation of a service trench across the same yard at Cloister Hall Farm, Frithelstock, Devon (Figure 1). This work was undertaken on 23rd August 2019 in accordance with a WSI's drawn up in consultation with Historic England (HE) and the Devon County Historic Environment Team (DCHET). The works were undertaken under Scheduled Monument Consent (SMC) reference numbers S00217188 and S00226734. Cloister Hall Farm is on the north side of the village of Frithelstock. The Scheduled Ancient Monument of Frithelstock Priory (SAM no.1009304) is within the grounds of Cloister Hall Farm: and the farm building complex is within the limits of the scheduled area. Frithelstock is a Domesday manor (Fredelestoc) (Morris 1992), in which c.1220 an Augustinian priory was founded that lasted until the dissolution (c.1536) (Lysons 1822). Frithelstock is the only monastic site in North Devon to retain parts of its standing structure. The farmhouse and some of the barns are Grade II listed and the farmhouse may contain medieval fabric forming part of the Priors House, as well as reused architectural fragments from the priory. Monitoring works on several sites in the general area have revealed a number of archaeological features and finds, including medieval and post-medieval assemblages. |
