Abstract:
In June 2007, Archaeological Solutions Ltd carried out a programme of historic building recording of The Old House, 27 Leyton Road, Harpenden, Hertfordshire; a Grade II Listed structure. The work was undertaken to satisfy part of a planning condition, which required the making of a detailed record of the parts of the building that are to be affected by proposed alterations. It is thought that the building originated as an inn and historic sources refer to it as the Bull as early as the late 16th century. The form and sturcutre of the main east-west range suggests that the existing building. is essentially 16th century and was probably originally built on the typical baffle-entry system, with rooms to either side of the central stack. A kitchen range was added to the south at a slightly later date. Several windows and doors within the building indicate a refurbishment in the early 17th century and it is perhaps around this time that a stair-turret, which lies to the north of the stack, was constructed. Several additions were made to the house in the subsequent centuries, with the two most significant being a barn/cart-shed probably in the late 17th or early 18th century and a domestic wing in the 1830s. In the 20th century a conservatory was added at the rear of the building.
