Abstract: |
Border Archaeology was commissioned by Rachael Johnstone on behalf of the National Trust to carry out archaeological observation of drainage ground works and associated structural disturbance relating to the conversion to dwellings of the Dower House and associated outbuildings. Of note was the discovery during the course of the ground works of a brick-built tank or cistern with a vaulted roof. This feature predated the existing garden wall and was thought to be associated with the Dower House, possibly for storing water. All finds from the site were of later post-medieval and modern date and post-dated construction of the Dower House. Their presence was noted, but they were not retained. |
