Abstract: |
An archaeological trench evaluation and historic building recording was carried out at the former Royal Eye Infirmary, Plymouth. The trench evaluation targeted the line of the 16th-century Stonehouse Leat. The evaluation demonstrated that the area to the east of the infirmary consisted of modern made ground to a depth of almost 2m, which directly overlaid the top of natural geology. As part of the redevelopment of the site a 1938 extension to the infirmary is to be demolished; this section of the infirmary was recorded. It is of a utilitarian design; there were few indications remaining of the functions of individual rooms. |
