Abstract: |
An archaeological building survey of a house and barn at Wellstyle Farm, Lumb Lane, Ashton-Under-Lyne (NGR SD 9211 0031) was required as part of an archaeological programme of work resulting from a condition of a planning permission for the demolition of the house, the conversion of the barn and associated stable into two dwellings and the construction of construction of one new dwelling, 5 stables and 3 garages. The work was carried out on behalf of Mr S. Barcroft pursuant to instructions from Cunningham Planning of 10A, Station Approach, Ormskirk, L39 2YN by J. M. Trippier Archaeological and Surveying Consultancy. Historical evidence demonstrates that the farmstead has been present since the late 16th century. However the house, which was found to be a brick built rectangular structure of 2 storeys, has undergone substantial redevelopment in the mid 20th century although the thickness of the west wall suggested that this may have contained the remnants of an earlier building. The barn, which was a threshing barn with a stable at the southern end appears on the 1863 map, and does not appear to have been altered until the 1920's when an extension was added to the west. The archaeological programme also required a watching brief which is reported separately. |
