Abstract: |
Allen Archaeology Limited was commissioned by Ajaks Properties to undertake a historic building survey as a condition of planning consent for demolition of existing buildings and a residential development, on land at 15 Station Road, March, Cambridgeshire. The shops and former accommodation (in total six structure) at 15 Station Road are non-designated heritage assets built in the 19th and mid/late 19th centuries. The survey identified at least four broad construction phases on site. The first and second phase originates from a row of cottages with an extension along the east side. They date from the 19th century, original fabric includes; the exterior brickwork apart from the north and south elevation, partial fireplaces, staircases, interior wall material of reed/rush, plaster and the majority of a poorly constructed Mansard roof. There appear to have been few interventions in the early 20th century and it is not until between 1952-71 that the shopfront in a 19th century style appears to have been constructed. The latest phase in the 1980s include removal of the southernmost cottages and internal shop partitions and merging all structures into one entity and perhaps ownership. The survey has allowed for the historical structures to be preserved by record. |
