Abstract:
29-31 High Street, Jedburgh In poor condition, consent had been granted for the demolition of this large street frontage property. Addyman Archaeology recorded the building prior to demolition, and during the strip-out and dismantling. The project demonstrated the structure to be of 17th century date though incorporating remains of an even earlier building, including parts of a stone turnpike stair. Demolition afforded the rare opportunity to scrutinise every part of the structure, and the methods and materials employed in its construction. 17th century floor structures , mostly of oak, remained intact, as did parts of the early roof; from these an important series of tree-ring dates were recovered by dendrochronologist Dr Coralie Mills. The structure was dated to c.1668 making it the latest oak-built vernacular building recorded in Scotland. Though the structure was substantial, of 2½ stories, its masonry was clay-bonded; a variety of stone types were employed, much of this recycled material from earlier buildings. These stones included medieval architectural fragments from an ecclesiastical source, most probably Jedburgh Abbey. The study of this building has very clearly demonstrated the potential for the survival of significant elements of the early townscape, much of this still hidden behind unprepossessing facades.
