Abstract:
A Level 2-type archaeological building recording was carried out on the former auction mart buildings near the junction of Lightburn Road and Brogden Street, Ulverston, Cumbria. The desk-based assessment revealed the original plans for the cattle market, which were approved by the Ulverston Local Board in September 1877. Several other plans showing alterations carried out in the later 19th and early 20th century were also discovered and a detailed account of the development of the building could be produced from these. The market, which was originally owned by The Ulverston and North Lonsdale Auction Mart Company Limited, appears to have opened by 1878. A second sale ring and further pens were built to the south-east of the cattle market in 1892, and further sheds were added in 1908, although these later sheds appear to have been foreshortened by 1913. Plans were approved for new offices at the north end of the Auction Mart in 1914 and further alterations of the buildings occurred during the 20th century. The Ulverston and North Lonsdale Auction Mart Company Limited relocated in May 1962 after which the building was occupied by a 'Transport Depot' and latterly by a glass factory. The site is identified simply as 'Works' on later editions of the Ordnance Survey. The building recording identified a number of features that could be related to these recorded phases of alteration, as well as extensive additions made after the building went out of use as an auction mart in 1962.
