Introduction
The archive collection comprises a digital archive only. This includes text, including the Project Plan, Location Specific Written Scheme of Investigation (LSWSI); and raster images, comprising photographs selected to support the historic building recording.
Project Summary
Recording has been undertaken in accordance with a project plan (Document number: 1EW02-CSJ-EV-PLN-S003-000041) and LSWSI (Document Number: 1EW02-CSJ-EV-PRO-S003-000012) and HS2 Technical Standards (Specification for Historic Environment Investigations, Document number HS2-HS2-EV-STD-000-000035) have been adhered to during the recording exercise. In addition, the recording was undertaken in accordance with Historic England’s Understanding Historic Buildings guidance (Historic England, 2016) and the Standard and guidance for the archaeological investigation and recording of standing buildings or structures (CIfA, 2014). A building recording of Level 1 survey was required for the asset, as defined in Understanding Historic Buildings: A guide to good recording practice (HE, 2016), which identifies a Level 1 survey as a basic visual record. This provided a sufficient level of recording to make a record of the existing building in its present condition, and to understand any changes to the building over its lifetime, including a photographic record of the Building and its immediate setting.
Re-Use Value Statement
This archive provides a comprehensive descriptive, analytical and visual record of 67-79 Euston Street and their setting as of 2018.
The archive is of value as the demolition of the asset means that the archive provides the last remaining record of the asset.
Additionally, the archive can provide information for any future research regarding the asset as an early 19th century residential terrace, as well as about the early 19th century development around Euston Station, which is otherwise inaccessible to the public.
