Abstract:
South West Archaeology Ltd. was commissioned to undertake archaeological monitoring and recording during external works at Bidgood's, Bury, Brompton Regis, Somerset. The cottage is a Grade II Listed, detached, two storey stone and cob house with a thatched roof towards the southern end of the village of Bury. The programme of works focused upon monitoring and recording the ground reduction in the areas immediately to the south, east and west of the building. The monitoring confirmed that there had been a severe level of cutting into the slope for the 20th century kitchen extension, and surrounding footpath/patio areas. The topsoil was shown to be up to 1m deep, where not truncated. The works tentatively suggest that the 20th century extension may overlay an earlier (18th or 19th century) feature (a well is shown on the 1st Edition OS Map). The limited evidence for this is that the cut for the footing trench appears to be around double width to the south-east. The footings of a small stone built lime bonded building (water-closet) was exposed abutting the eastern elevation of Bidgoods. The only other features were the modern retaining walls of the garden, a modern soak-away and two service pipes (electric and water). No features or finds recovered pre-dated the 17th century, but the archaeological potential of the area remains high.
