Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation by trial trenching and a strip and record exercise investigated the former farmstead and adjacent area of open space. The trial trenching was largely negative and the strip and record revealed the foundations of the 18th century farmhouse and 17th century timber framed barns that were demolished in 2004 following building recording. A stone built cellar was located below the 18th century farmhouse that may represent an earlier dwelling contemporary with the barns. Pottery from the cellar backfill suggests this was demolished in the mid to late 18th century. A contemporary stone constructed waterhole or well and a large circular below ground cold store were located close to the house. The latter was later converted into a soft water tank before backfilling in the late 19th century. Other features included gullies, boundary walls and culverts all contemporary with the farm. |
