Abstract:		 Following the submission of a planning application for the proposed conversion of a former school room, on Main Street, Bardsea, Cumbria, into a domestic dwelling, Greenlane Archaeology was commissioned to carry out an archaeological building recording as a result of a condition on the application. The work was carried out by Greenlane Archaeology in December 2022. The school room and schoolhouse at Bardsea are known to have been constructed in 1852, replacing an earlier school established in the late 18th century that was on the edge of the village. It is recorded as having been extended in 1897 and map evidence shows that this primarily comprised an addition at the southern end. It is not known who the architect for the building was, but it may have been the Webster family, who constructed the nearby church at the same time. The building recording demonstrated that the original building had been initially enlarged by the addition of an outshut on the east side, before this and the main room was extended to the south. Both internally and externally it retains much of its original form, including an folding partition, although evidence for the extension of the main room is remarkably well hidden. The building represents an interesting and locally significant structure on account of its architectural style and preservation, although identifying the architect would potentially increase its significance.
