Activities

Standing Building Recording (20 February 2023)

NM 71874 78571 Buildings Archaeology Ltd produced a historic building survey of an early 20th century farmhouse in advance of proposed alterations. The archaeological investigation was carried out through photographic, drawn and written survey. The extant farmhouse was constructed at the turn of the 20th century on behalf of the Blackburn family, as part of a series of “improvements” carried out on the Roshven Estate. The building was constructed using the mass concrete construction method and replaced an earlier stone building. This farmhouse has been subsequently adapted and extended through the 20th century, resulting in its present form.
