Abstract:
A Building Assessment was carried out at Starbank House, 23 High Street, Thame, Oxfordshire (NGR SP 70481 06042). The structure lies in the historic town, parish and manor of Thame and is sited on the south side of the High Street Thame is known to have originated as an early medieval ecclesiastical centre probably in the 7th century, although earlier origins are sometime claimed. The original settlement is considered to have been located at the west end of the High Street and extending north to the area around the abbey and minster church. This is the area of the town in which Starbank House is located. The Building Assessment and site observations indicated that the development of the structure was probably more complicated than had previously been imagined. Stone foundations were identifiable under the front part of the house and a kerb principal rafter in the west wall, which had mortise joints that would have held timbers extending into the present space occupied by Starbank House. The structures 23 and 24 were probably all part of one structure and part of a brewing establishment. Phase 2 probably saw the construction of a stone structure to the rear of the building. The cellar was also probably part of an earlier construction, possibly phase 3, and there was also a brick culvert uncovered. The back part of the building had had its early 19th century front moulded to an earlier component. This had parapet gables and is thus presumably post 1707. Phase 4 saw the addition of the 19th century structure.
