Abstract:		 South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) was commissioned by a private client to undertake retrospective recording at the Grade II Listed Ash House, Henstridge, Somerset, that has undergone initial renovation works. This appraisal was undertaken in order to assess the significance of the buildings prior to further work taking place. Ash House forms one half of a short range of cottages, formerly a free-standing cottage that was awkwardly linked to the Old Bakehouse in the 19th century. The soft strip that has taken place has resulted in the loss of some 19th and 20th century fabric but has revealed historic features and blocked openings and facilitated the understanding of the structure. The building is Listed as early 19th century, but this appraisal has determined that the earliest parts of the structure are 17th century in date. The cottage was then comprehensively rebuilt in the early 18th century, perhaps following a catastrophic event. In the early 19th century it was split into two smaller dwellings. In 1839 the whole range was owned by Hugh White; he lived in the Old Bakehouse and it is tempting to suggest Ash House was an investment rental property. In the mid 20th century the two halves of the cottage were reunited and a two-storey concrete block extension built to the rear. Further work on the property should be subject to monitoring within a programme of work drawn up in consultation with the Conservation Officer.
