Abstract:
The Oxford Archaeological Unit (OAU) was asked by Andrew Townsend Architects to undertake an assessment and rapid record of the fabric of the Chapel at Widmere Farm, Marlow, Buckinghamshire during the course of building works which included external repointing. Visits were made to the house in April 1999, and this report is based on observations made on those visits but not any extensive archival or historical research. An earlier watching brief on the digging of new drains, in November 1998, revealed no significant buried features. The principal matter of record was the appearance of the exterior of the building after the removal of rendering, and this has been drawn to indicate the features apparent in the masonry. Comments are also made here on internal features, and in particular the very interesting roof, but no recording was required or undertaken on these aspects. Summary: The Grade II* listed Chapel at Widmere Farm was stripped of external render, and its fabric recorded in August 1999 by the Oxford Archaeological Unit. The 13th-century chapel is of special interest in being on an estate belonging to the Knights Hospitallers. Evidence was found for the changes in the walls when new windows were added in the 14th century, and the survival of the original roof (with notch-lapped joints) was noted as a significant feature. A watching brief on the digging of drains revealed no significant buried features.
