Abstract: |
Between August and September 2015, a programme of Historic Building Recording and Archaeological Observation and Recording was undertaken in 44 Station Road, Long Marston, as a condition of Listed Building Consent for the restoration of the building. The works showed that the building had undergone considerable rebuilding and repair including extensive rebuilding of the east wall, the construction of a concrete floor throughout the ground floor and the rebuilding of the oven in Room G1. Earlier fabric that was revealed included the studwork and early 19th century timber window in the north wall of the main reception room, the former north wall of the rear section of the house, and most significantly a substantial timber post that may represent a crosswing to the west of the house. A well and a culvert were revealed during the groundworks. The well was in what had once been an open passage between number 44 and its neighbouring property. Originally built in the 18th century, it was rebuilt in the 19th century before the passage was incorporated into the main body of the house. The culvert ran parallel to the rear of the building and appears to have been built in the 18th century. |
