Abstract:		 The School that opened in June 1911 had been built within a 19th century orchard. The original school buildings are still in use but are now surrounded or encased by later structures. The site is terraced into the gentle south-south-west facing slope, and this has clear implications for the preservation of archaeological features and deposits. The key issue for this site is the likelihood that a medieval ecclesiastical building stood on or close to the site of the Baptist Church. An article written in the later 19th century by William Ellis, a native of Bovey Tracey living in West Toledo, Ohio, contains a detailed account of this structure that implies it was a fragment of a larger building that extended to the west. However, William Ellis is not a credible source and it is tempting to dismiss his account entirely. The two 15th century arches close to the site provide some corroboration, but one - if not both - are re-set. The Baptist Church, Cromwell's Arch, and the Arch into the Church Graveyard are all Listed; the two arches are also protected by Scheduling. Provided the scale and massing of any proposed development on the School site does not exceed that of the current structures, harm to the setting of these assets will be minimal. If intrusive groundworks are to take place close to the Baptist Church, these should be monitored in case structural remains are present that might corroborate the account of William Ellis.
