Abstract:		 Cornwall Archaeological Unit (formerly Historic Environment Projects, Cornwall Council) was commissioned by the National Trust to carry out historic building recording in advance of conservation work on the Cider House at Godolphin located at NGR SW 60203 31907. It is proposed that the Cider House (a Grade II listed building) should be converted for use as a flexible space open to the public. The present building was purpose-built as a cider house in the 18th century. Projecting footings along part of the present west wall indicate that it replaced an earlier, smaller building of unknown date. It seems likely that the cider house continued to be used as such throughout the 19th century and into the first half of the 20th century. During the 1970s the building was converted for use as a pottery. A total of four major construction phases have been identified as a result of this study. Phase 1 (17th or 18th century) comprised a building at the northern end of the present structure which was extensively demolished or ruined before the erection of the present building during phase 2 (18th century- pre 1786). Phase 3 occurred as a series of repairs and minor alterations in the 19th century which included the widening of the door opening in the north wall, replacement of some first floor joists and floor boards, repairs and some replacement of roof timbers and replacement of windows and doors. Phase 4 (20th century) saw the removal of the mill and press and the conversion of the building into a pottery which involved alteration of the external steps to form a ramp, insertion of two concrete bases at the south end of the ground floor room, insertion of a fire/brazier at the north-east corner of the first floor, addition of pottery racks on the first floor and the insertion of a roof light in the east pitch. The survival of this building is significant as it is a relatively rare early example of a cider house in Cornwall.
