Abstract:		 In July 2017 AS carried out an a programme of historic building and archaeological monitoring and recording at Westbury House, High Street, Much Hadham, Hertfordshire. The monitoring was commissioned by Elite Construction Ltd and undertaken in compliance with a planning condition attached to the proposed construction of a single storey rear extension and internal alterations within the rear ranges at ground floor level. No works were proposed in the historic core of the property which is described as 16th or 17th century in date. The project saw the recording of evidence relating to the addition of three rear ranges, which despite slight differences in brickwork and form are all consistent with dates in the early to mid 19th century. Of note is the use of imported Baltic softwood in the central range, demonstrated by the presence of scribed marks on the ceiling joists. The southern range may present further complexity where the eastern half may form an earlier stair turret, and investigations in the future particularly within the roof structure and earlier historic core may allow the sequence to be elucidated. The archaeological monitoring found remains of a made ground layer 1000 containing small fragments of red brick and the occasional animal bone, as well as ceramic Victorian drainage pipes.
