Abstract:
The Bishops Palace at Chudleigh is a nationally important site although only a few ruined features and low earthworks now survive. The core of the palace is probably the impressive though extensively robbed vaulted lower storey building with a ruined, much altered superstructure, located on the west of the site. Nearby are the fragmentary remains of three free-standing walls, which are parts of the medieval range of buildings. Elements of an enclosure wall also survive. The earthworks are visible as levelled stances with associated amorphous low banks and traces of agricultural activity. These earthworks indicate much surface disturbance but also suggest the potential for the survival of footings and foundations of structures, especially in areas where the soil cover is quite deep. A long standing requirement to fully record this scheduled monument was fulfilled when Exeter Archaeology was commissioned to undertake a measured drawing of the standing structures in February - March 1999. The RCHME Exeter office completed a 1:500 scale survey of the ruins and the earthworks during this period.
