Abstract:
An English Heritage Level-3 type archaeological building recording of the Grade I listed Castle Dairy, Wildman Street, Kendal, Cumbria, was carried out prior to a proposed programme of renovation work. The building is thought to have formed a grange for Kendal Castle, and is remarkable in having retained elements of 14th century date within the structure. The original structure was perhaps a much simpler building comprising a medieval hall with a cross passage connecting to a buttery and pantry. This was probably soon altered with the addition of large wings at either end, although both of these phases include elements that suggest the building was at least partially defensive in character. In the 16th century it became the residence of Anthony Garnett and was modified to suit, although many of these changes seem to have been essentially decorative. The building was further added to in the 17th and 18th centuries, with more minor renovations carried out throughout the 20th century. It was passed to the town in 1923 to be preserved. The examination of the building provided a rare opportunity to record a structure of this type, which is remarkably well preserved and houses a number of features and fittings of historical interest, including an ornate bedstead from the 16th century, and the upstairs bedroom may have served as a chapel.
