Abstract: |
The excavations in the North Front revealed an alignment of three stone plinths on either side of the North Portico roughly respecting the present arcade. These structures may have been built during or after the construction of the North Front by the first Lord Cobham. A modern or earlier 19th century system of brick and stone culverts was found under the cobbled walkway behind the arcade. In the South Front the excavations revealed a clay lined tank possibly associated with the construction of Stowe House. This structure was built over and within the substantial deposits of made ground forming the South Front terrace constructed in the late 18th century by Earl Temple. [Au(abr)] |
