Description
NRHE data transfer:
The excavation was successful in matching the revealed building foundations and a large number of structural postholes with maps dating to the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries. The majority of bricks that were sampled during the investigations were 18th century in date, suggesting that the building material from the early farm complex was re-used when the farm was remodelled in the mid 19th century. They also provide the only potential physical evidence of the earlier farm. Accession no: SAFWM:2012.4.
