Abstract: |
In March 2015 Archaeology South-East (a division of the Centre for Applied Archaeology, University College London) carried out a programme of historic building recording in connection with the development of The Ridgewood Centre, Old Bisley Road, Frimley, Surrey, GU16 9QE (hereafter 'the site'; centred NGR: 490482 159213). The work was commissioned by CgMs Consulting to satisfy conditions attached to planning permission (planning ref: 14/0800) for the redevelopment of the site comprising part demolition/part conversion of the existing buildings on the site in preparation for the construction of 100 residential dwellings (comprising 9 one bed, 27 two bed, 49 three bed, 11 four bed and 4 five bed units) with associated parking facilities, access roads, landscaping and amenity spaces. The Ridgewood Centre comprises c. 15 buildings, including the central Edwardian structure (Building 1) of the former Brompton Hospital Sanatorium with three projecting ward blocks (Buildings 2-4), and a group of ancillary buildings (Buildings 5-11) comprising a kitchen block, assembly hall, dining blocks, nurses' house and the medical officer's house. The proposed development includes the retention of the main central block (comprising Buildings 1-4) and associated sunken garden, with the demolition of the remainder of the buildings on the site. The purpose of this recording exercise will create a record of Buildings 5-11 as existing prior to their demolition (identified on Fig. 2). Buildings 5-10 have a construction date of 1904 with two additional phases of development; Building 5 was significantly extended between 1935 and 1968 and Building 11 (comprising an extension to Building 10) was built by 1928. This report complements an Archaeological Desk-Based Assessment (CgMs Consulting, August 2014) and Heritage Impact Assessment (Asset Heritage Consulting, August 2014) previously produced for this scheme. |
