Abstract: |
Between March 2011- January 2012 a watching brief was carried out at the North Car Park, Hatfield House, Hertfordshire, during the construction of a fountain in the centre and knot gardens along the east and west sides of the north car park. The works revealed a series of made-ground deposits containing frequent quantities of building debris and a number of structural foundations. The deposits are thought to have been primarily brought to the area to form the surface of the court, when the site was extended in the second half of the 19th century. A further explanation is that the structural debris and foundations may have derived from the temporary buildings that were erected in the North Court during the Second World War, when Hatfield House was a military hospital. Or that the deposits and structural foundations are related to the former garden layout of the site. |
