Data from an Archaeological Trial Trench Evaluation North of Moat Farm, Chetwode, Buckinghamshire, 2018 (HS2 Phase One)
No full textThis collection comprises the reports, site drawings, flint recording data and animal bone recording data, as well as the photographic archive, from an archaeological trial trench evaluation carried out on land north-east of Godington, Buckinghamshire by COPA between the 8th and 12th January 2018. The documentary and finds archive will be deposited with Discover Bucks Museum. The results of the evaluation indicated the likely presence of a previously unknown late Roman rural settlement. This included several ditches, a pit and several spread deposits which contained late Roman pottery. The later fills and spreads show evidence of waterborne activity and the Site may have been flooded after it was abandoned
Images and Report from a Level 2 Descriptive Buildings Recording Survey at Neamour Hall, Eggleston, County Durham, June-July 2024
No full textThis collection comprises images and a report from a level 2 descriptive buildings recording survey at Neamour Hall, Eggleston, County Durham. This work was undertaken by Minerva Heritage in June/July 2024. The complex of agricultural buildings had developed around two core units - a byre with hayloft over, adjoining a separate cottage. These date from the late 18th or more likely the early 19th century. The unusual concrete veneer and blockwork on the elevation facing towards Eggleston village was probably added c.1900-1919. Various extensions and outbuildings were added and removed during the lifespan of the complex. The cottage and byre at the core of the complex were of relatively crude construction and both perhaps suffered from structural instability from the moment at which they were joined together
Images and Text from a Building Survey at Flint House, Cliveden, Taplow, Buckinghamshire, July 2017
No full textThis collection consists of images and text from a buildings survey by Oxford Archaeology (South) of The Flint House, Cliveden, Taplow, Buckinghamshire, in July 2017. The Flint House is a small, circular grotto-type structure which appears to have been constructed in the third quarter of the 19th century as part of wider works to create a naturalistic designed landscape in the Rushy Valley to east of the mansion. The structure is constructed from flint and it is likely that it was built to provide a simple shelter on walks through the woodland and also to provide a platform above where views could be enjoyed looking west towards the Octagon Temple

Images from a Historic Building Recording Survey at North Farm, Elwick, Hartlepool, County Durham, March 2024
No full textThis collection comprises images from a building recording survey at North Farm, Elwick, Hartlepool, County Durham. This work was undertaken by the Archaeological Practice in March 2024. North Farm exemplifies the earlier type of County Durham farmstead which took the form of a row comprising the dwelling house and attached farm buildings. But unlike many similar sites, North Farm never underwent the full-scale transformation into a planned farm with ranges of buildings - barns, byres, stables, granaries, dairies etc. - all arranged around stackyards. Instead, the evolution was much more piecemeal and haphazard, with buildings gradually being added then enlarged over time in the farmyard to the north of the original range, but with no clear overarching scheme being evident. The present farmhouse probably originated as a hearth-passage longhouse of late 17th- or 18th-century date which was later divided into two properties and heavily modified. Buildings continued to be added in the 18th and 19th centuries. The final phase in the development of the complex is represented by the construction of large metal barns and open sheds, characteristic of later 20th century farming, on the north and west edges of the farmyard
Data from a Level 2 Historic Building Recording Survey at Stocksbridge Weir, Deepcar, Sheffield, October 2023
No full textThis collection comprises images and a photo catalogue from a Level 2 historic building recording survey at Stocksbridge Weir, Deepcar, Sheffield. This work was undertaken by Ecus Ltd. in October 2023. Stocksbridge Weir is a good example of a 19th century weir built as part of a by-pass water management system created to power the two waterwheels used by the Wharncliffe Fire Clay Works. It was built between 1855 and 1858 and consisted of two courses of sandstone ashlar blocks, built directly onto the bedrock forming the bottom of the river. At some point between 1931 and 1959, a footbridge was constructed close to the Weir and a new retaining structure was built. The original abutment and wingwalls at this end of the Weir were replaced
