Abstract: |
David Coles Architects are gathering baseline information on Whitehouse Farm, Stanbridge, in order to support a planning application for the partial demolition and conversion of existing buildings into private dwellings, and the erection of a number of new residential buildings. The archaeological evaluation confirmed the evidence provided by the Historic Environment Record. The majority of archaeological features revealed dated to the 19th and 20th centuries and related to the use of the farm complex and adjacent post-medieval cottages which were demolished at the turn of the century. Medieval furrows suggest that the area always lay some distance from the contemporary settlement foci and was used for agriculture. The exception to this was the presence of a small un-urned cremation, which contained 2g of human bone from a juvenile, c. 3 years of age. |
