| Abstract: |
During the summer of 2011, Archaeology South-East (UCL Institute of Archaeology) carried out a complex phase of excavation at Stanmer House, Stanmer, East Sussex. The fieldwork, commissioned by ABIR architects, took place in advance of construction of a new rear wing to the building. This occupied the footprint of the earlier northern wing of Stanmer House which had been demolished in the 1960s. The excavations revealed archaeological evidence largely supporting the known historical development of the building. Remains included an Elizabethan or Jacobean manor house, a country residence built in the reign of Queen Anne and details of the Palladian rebuild designed and overseen by the architect Nicholas Dubois. |
