Abstract:
In August 2010, Archaeological Solutions Ltd conducted a programme of historic building monitoring and recording at The Grove, near Wheathampstead, Hertfordshire. The programme was carried out in order to comply with a condition attached to planning consent for the creation of a boot room / cloakroom and first floor study area. The development included the removal of an earlier 20th century staircase and associated partitions at first floor level. The removal of these elements had little impact into earlier fabric although where such fabric was uncovered this allowed an opportunity to record further information relating to the development of the house. There was no evidence for any 18th century internal features, although the removal of the staircase reveals the formerly external brickwork of the main house. The presence of a plinth along with tuck-pointing of the brickwork provides evidence that the stair turret was a later addition to the pre-existing rear wall of the house, albeit what appears to be a short time later, suggested by the similarities in fabric used. The brickwork of the north-west extension to the stair turret, along with the sash window preserved at first floor level, retaining delicately moulded glazing bars and no horns, suggests a date for this addition somewhere in the early-mid 19th century.
