Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was completed at The Banyers Hotel, Royston (TL 35742 40738) prior to the construction of a conservatory to the rear of the structure and a two storey extension to the east of the building. The watching brief revealed a palimpsest of development by successive owners yielding information of the early history of The Banyers relating to its initial development as a timber framed 14th structure and later development of the building in the 18th and 19th centuries. In total four phases of development were identified during the work. The watching brief during the insertion of service trenches for the current development revealed no archaeological activity earlier than post medieval, other than made up ground. |
