Abstract:		 Aeon Archaeology was commissioned by H J Lea Oakes Ltd to produce a level 2 historic building record of no. 7 Game Street, H J Oaks Ltd Wheelock Corn Mills, Crewe Road, Sandbach, CW11 3RS prior to demolition. The Sandbach tithe map of 1841 depicts No.7 Game Street as the eastern end terrace of a row of terraced houses fronting on to Game Street to the south. The higher quality 25 inch Ordnance Survey maps of 1898 and 1909 show No.7 as being one of four terraces, the remaining of which were demolished during the 20th Century to make way for commercial development. The structural stratigraphic evidence shows that the building had two first floor windows on the rear northwest elevation blocked up, and a single storey extension added. This extension is of similar machine made red brick to the rest of the property and appears to be depicted on the Ordnance Survey map of 1898. At some undetermined point the centralised rear doorway within the extension was blocked up to create a window and the doorway from the extension into the rear yard was moved further to the northeast. This was a practical alteration to allow for a longer kitchen counter top. Internally the building retains an almost original layout with the exception of the ground floor bathroom which was likely added upon construction of the rear extension. It is also likely that around this time the doorway opening between the Living Room and Pantry / Cellar steps was also blocked up. The layout, appearance and building materials of No.7 Game Street are of a typical early Victorian terrace and although there is no cartographic evidence predating the 1841 tithe map, it would appear likely that this building is of the first half of the 19th century and not earlier.
