Abstract:		 Greenlane Archaeology carried out an archaeological building recording of the former gatehouse at Calder Bridge, Gosforth. The gatehouse forms part of the medieval abbey at Calder, which was founded in 1134 as an off-shoot of Furness Abbey. It was destroyed in a Scottish raid on the area only a few years later after which the monks returned to Furness but they were refused entry and ended up at Byland. The abbey at Calder was re-established in 1143 and flourished in the late 13th century. Following the Dissolution it passed through a number of families. Much of the original medieval fabric of the structure remains though the building has been subject to a number of alterations, the earliest being the probable insertion of mullion windows at second floor level, perhaps in the later medieval period. The building had essentially its present form by the early 18th century, although the original doorways had been mostly blocked and a row of outbuildings attached to the north side by the late 19th century. In the late 18th or 19th century the original openings were blocked, a new floor added, an additional first floor doorway added to the north, and a chimney and flue added to the south-east corner, all as part of the incorporation of the building into a range of outbuildings and an adjoining garden. More recently the later floor has been removed due to the change in use of the building into a garage.
