Abstract: |
In January 2007, Birmingham Archaeology undertook a programme of Historic Building Recording at Mill House, Tutbury Mill, Rocester, Staffordshire. With its initial phases dating to the early 19th century, Mill house was used as the foreman's house at Tutbury Mill from at least the mid 19th century. Tutbury Mill is a site with a long history of the production and processing of textiles, and seven distinct and separate phases of construction have been previously identified there. The mill complex contains structures built by and associated with Richard Arkwright, one of the key personalities and catalysts of the Industrial Revolution. It was found that the main block of the house, which was construction in the late 18th/early 19th century, this retains some of its original fixtures and fittings such as moulded cornices, skirting boards, fireplaces, and staircases. Further domestic quarterd were added to the rear in the mid to late 19th century, whilest subsequent additions and alterations were carried out duringthe 20th century. |
