Abstract:
The trench within the former bus station on Bransty Row, Whitehaven revealed the relatively well preserved footings of a portion of the former dye works. Structures within the trench included upstanding walls, intact floors, sumps, drains and tanks/pits. These features accurately reflect the structures depicted on the 1874 Ordnance Survey map and relate to the mid 19th century redevelopment of the dye works. Evidence of an earlier floor surface within indicates that the buildings underwent a degree of redevelopment over their lifetime. Cartographic evidence suggests a programme of redevelopment between 1874 and 1899, when the buildings were extended and a number of additional buildings out-with the strip and map area were constructed. The majority of the finds came from the backfill of the buildings presumably post demolition so are not related to the use of the buildings. However, the finds from the sandy deposit (070) that separated the earlier and later floor surfaces may be related to the activities undertaken in the buildings.
