Abstract: |
In September 2008 Archaeological Solutions carried out an historic building appraisal of 10-12 The Wash, Hertford, Hertfordshire in order to inform proposals to convert the upper floor, the rear part of the ground floor and an outbuilding into seven residential units. The premises form half of a fairly modest, Grade II listed 17th century timber-framed row of shops which appear to have been occupied separately until the 20th century. When separate, both elements seem to have been refurbished in the 19th century. The outbuilding probably originated as four discrete cart or carriage sheds with storage lofts above in the mid-19th century. It is listed grade II as part of the curtilage of the main building. There is no evidence to suggest that they were used as stables, as has been suggested. Much original fabric survives intact, and little change has occurred since its construction. The appraisal concluded that the redevelopment scheme for the main building would have very little adverse impact upon its historic fabric and that the proposals were broadly sympathetic to the house. However conversion of the outbuilding would result in substantial impact and loss of historic fabric, retaining only a cosmetic sense of their original scale and purpose. |
