Abstract:
Poole Farm, Slapton was subject to an archaeological watching brief, excavation and additional historic building recording in 2008 and 2009 by Robert Waterhouse. Subsequently South West Archaeology were commissioned to draw together the results of these works to be supplemented by a desk-based assessment. Poole Farm has medieval origins and several of the buildings have surviving elements of medieval architecture, much of which has been reused. The first phase of surviving buildings and landscaping seems to have formed the footprint of a medieval chamber block (c.1350-1450) with a substantial (and perhaps slightly later) hall (?) extending north from this structure. The chamber block was subsequently extended to the east with additional lodgings added and a possible service building (kitchen block?) constructed to the north (c.1450-1550). The 16th-17th century witnessed substantial changes to the buildings and additional buildings erected and it may have been that during this period a new manor house was constructed beneath the present house. It was only after a devastating fire c.1812 that significant (re-)building again occurred with only the stables, service block and Pound House largely surviving; the present farm house and granary were constructed at this date with further modifications to the range of service and agricultural buildings.
