Abstract: |
The programme of Standing Building Recording undertaken by Border Archaeology (to RCHME Level 4) on the 'Old Coach House', a derelict building at St James' Close, Quedgeley, supported by further detailed documentary research, identified three distinct phases of construction ranging broadly in date from the early 19th century up to the late 20th century. Phase 1 (early 19th century): The existing two-storey gabled brick building with chimneystack attached to the north end appears originally to have formed the northernmost of a pair of two cottages, probably constructed at some point between c.1810 and 1839. Phase 2 (mid-late 19th century): In about 1860, it appears that the cottages were transferred by the Curtis-Hayward family to the endowment of Quedgeley Rectory (which had been rebuilt c.1840). Shortly after this date, it appears that the southern cottage was demolished and the remaining building was converted into a coach house, harness room and laundry/washhouse associated with the Rectory. Phase 3 (mid-late 20th century): This phase of activity, which may be dated to the 1960s-70s, is represented by the demolition of the two lean-to structures at the north and south gable ends, which were erected in the mid-late 19th century, and the construction of two single-storey brick garage extensions attached to the south- and west-facing elevations. |
