Abstract:		 Level 3 Building Record The building recording comprises a Level 3 record as set out in the Historic England guidance ‘Understanding Historic Buildings: A Guide to Good Recording Practice’ (2016). A Level 3 building record is defined by Historic England as an ‘analytical record’. It is not an assessment of heritage significance such as informs the decisionmaking process. This record was also produced in accordance with the CIfA publication ‘Standard and Guidance for the archaeological investigation and recording of standing buildings or structures’ (2020). Level 3 drawn record This element includes items 2-3 of the Historic England guidance regarding ‘the drawn record’. A full suite of building plans and elevations, including photogrammetry, have been compiled by Cotswold Archaeology’s Geomatics team. A building plan has been compiled, showing the location of the rooms and internal spaces within the Building (Figs 4a-c). These also record the form and location of any structural features and/or detail of historic significance including any evidence for former fixtures and fittings. Other illustrations to support the historical analysis and survey are also provided. Existing measured elevations and floor plans with photo location points have been used to illustrate the report. Level 3 photographic record A digital photographic record has been compiled. Photography has been undertaken with a Canon EOS 600D 20mpx TTL digital camera in accordance with items 1-9 of the Historic England guidance (HE 2016). The photographic record includes general views of the Building, shots of the external appearance and the overall appearance of principal spaces and functional areas. Specific architectural details that relate to date, alteration, or function have been subject to more detailed photographic recording. Where surviving, external or internal detail (structural or decorative) relevant to the Building’s design, development and use has been photographed, with scale where appropriate. The photographic survey comprises digital images of the Building and specific features of interest. Selected images have been converted to .jpeg format for use in the report.levels of Metadata will be maintained and included in the digital archive following the approach set out in the aforementioned guidance. Appropriate scales are located in most 10 The Air Balloon Public House HBR © Cotswold Archaeology archive photographs. However, where appropriate (i.e. where scaling can be seen from items within the view, or shots that may be used in publications) photographs without scales have also been taken. Level 3 written record The Level 3 written record is analytical in its composition and includes the Building location, the dates of the record and the name of the recorder. The written record includes a brief summary of the Building’s historic and architectural context, based upon the site inspection. It includes commentary and analysis of structures, features and any relevant uncovered building fabric which reveal additional evidence and information about the historical development of the Building and its use and alteration over time. Detail of the Building’s history, development and use has been informed by secondary sources consulted at the Gloucestershire Archives as well as accessible published online sources. The report includes a map regression to illustrate the development of the building (Figure 2). The components of the written record are in-line with Items 1-3,6-9, 11-13 and 23 of the Historic England guidance (HE 2016). In December 2022 Kier Highways Ltd commissioned Cotswold Archaeology to undertake a historic building recording of the Air Balloon Public House in Birdlip, Gloucestershire. The recording is required to preserve the building by record prior to its demolition as part of the A417 Missing Link road infrastructure scheme.
