Abstract:
A Level 3 analytical record (Historic England 2016, 25) was carried out comprising historic research and the production of a drawn, written and a photographic record. The initial fieldwork was undertaken on 20 September 2022. Additional recording was undertaken on 30 September as part of a volunteer workshop. An additional visit to inspect the roof, once scaffolding had been erected, took place on 3 November. Full access was gained to the monument. A historical baseline was established for the Roman Monument. This was founded on a desk-based review of existing publicly accessible sources of primary and synthesised information. Sources consulted comprised: • historic cartographic sources, including Ordnance Survey maps • published historical studies • documents held at the West Yorkshire Archives. A photographic record of the structures was compiled, comprising, where possible, detailed and general viewpoints using a 20.2-megapixel, digital SLR camera (Canon EOS 6D). Graduated photographic scales were positioned within the photographs, where practical, and the location and subject of each viewpoint recorded. Elements of recording were undertaken using Structure from Motion photography (SfM). This involved taking a continuous series of overlapping vertical and/or oblique subject images with a high-resolution digital camera at a suitable distance to retain sufficient surface detail. These images were then processed through software that reconstructs the original subject matter in three dimensions, thereby creating a point cloud of the scene. After filtering, the point cloud was converted into a mesh-based model of the scene over which the photo imagery was draped. Scales or geo-referenced ground markers were included in the photographs to establish suitable control for the resulting model, allowing scaled orthoimages to be produced of plans and elevations. The Roman Monument is a single-phase 18th-century garden building of sandstone and limestone with later repairs. Precise dating is currently elusive, but the assembled evidence indicates a date between 1740 and 1760 under direction of William Aislabie. Designed on an historical roadside tomb outside Rome, the monument survives as a square structure with door and windows, but its original five rooftop pillars are lost. Its clifftop location maximised a range of long and short, high and lower-level viewpoints within the designed landscape of Seven Bridges valley and beyond.
