Abstract: |
Archaeological monitoring and recording was carried out by AC archaeology during groundworks associated with the construction of new commercial unit on land at the rear of 20 Fore Street, The New Cut, Cullompton, Devon. The site is situated in the historic core of the town. It lies within one of a series or burgage plots that extend to the west of the street frontage properties. Monitored groundworks comprised the machine-excavation of footings for the new unit, which measured 1.1m wide by 0.6m deep. An exposed stone wall foundation (S104) was likely to represent localised underpinning of the boundary wall comprising the rear wing of the Grade-II listed early 19th century No. 18 Fore Street. Its position indicates that it related to the former outbuilding that previously occupied this part of the site. No other evidence for this building was present and is therefore likely to have had only very shallow footings elsewhere. Although undated, the demolished outbuilding was likely to also have been of early 19th century date. |
