Abstract: |
In October and November 2004 an historic building assessment was carried out on a property in Church Lane, Berkhamsted, in response to proposals for partial demolition, and conversion (with extensions) to residential use. The property lies within the market area of Berkhamsted, and forms a parcel with premises at the adjoining 134 High Street. The two large brick buildings on the site appear to have been constructed in the early 19th century as a slaughterhouse and candle maker's, associated with a butcher's shop at 134 High Street, which was owned by the same family for much of the 19th century. Both buildings are quite basic in character, with few surviving clues as to their function. The three other buildings on the site are all of 20th-century date, and are less substantial structures. Two were probably built to provide additional space for furniture storage when 134 High Street became a furniture shop. |
