Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Persimmon Homes Thames Valley to create a Historic Building Record of four redundant farm buildings at Greens Yard, High Street, Compton, West Berkshire. The work was commissioned as part of a planning application (ref: 11/01159/XOUTMA) for the redevelopment of the Site to create 25 residential units with ancillary buildings and access from the High Street. In granting the planning permission West Berkshire Council (WBC) asked for condition 26 to be satisfied prior to the commencement of the conversion works to ensure that the historic farm buildings were adequately recorded, and that historic information was not destroyed as part of the development process. The former Archaeological Officer of WBC (Duncan Coe) requested for the buildings to be recorded to Level 2 as defined in the document: Understanding Historic Buildings: A guide to good recording practice (English Heritage 2006). Following consultation in January 2014, a detailed historical and archaeological background was also required to enable an understanding of the development of the farm complex. The work was undertaken in accordance with a Written Scheme of Investigation which was submitted to and approved in advance of the work by the Archaeological Officer of WBC. |
