Abstract:		 Archaeological monitoring and recording was undertaken by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) at the request of Amanda Burden (Luscombe Maye) on behalf of James Shinner (the Client) during the construction of a manure store at Stretchford Farm, Staverton, South Hams, Devon. The monitoring work was carried out by B. Morris on 25th September 2017; the weather was fine and dry. This work was undertaken in accordance with a Written Scheme of Investigation (Boyd 2017) drawn up in consultation with Stephen Reed of the Devon County Historic Environment Team (DCHET). Stretchford Farm is located adjacent to the A384 between Buckfastleigh and Totnes, towards the base of a shallow valley dropping down to the River Dart at an altitude of c.35m AOD. The soils of this area are the slowly-permeable and seasonally-waterlogged clayey loams of the Denbigh 1 Association (SSEW 1983), overlying the slates of the Upper Devonian Slate series (BGS 2017). The site lies in an area of some archaeological potential, with cropmark enclosures to the north (MDV28875) and west (MDV28876) of the site. The farm itself dates to the 1860s; two smaller farms were amalgamated by the landowner (the Dean and Chapter of Exeter Cathedral) and a new and more convenient farmstead built. The current owners (the Shinners) have leased the land since c.1850. The farm house and buildings are of grey slatestone with dressed squared grey limestone quoins and segmental arches to the windows and doors. The pitched roofs are of equal-sized slate with dark blue ridge tiles. The cartshed has a simple queen-strut roof structure.
