Historic Buildings

The archaeological investigation of historic buildings can come in many forms, from examination and recording of a specific feature of a building, to detailed recording and interpretation of a large group of related structures. It may involve assessment, undertaken to inform the planning process, or recording of a building prior to refurbishment, conversion or demolition. At the core of most projects is preparation of a detailed photographic and drawn survey of the structures concerned, supported by background historical research. From this information, the structural history of a building and changes in its function can be determined, and significant architectural and historical features can be identified.

ASC's expertise in historic buildings covers a wide range of structures including farms, houses of all sizes, hospitals, industrial and military buildings. Our staff are also highly experienced in monitoring restoration work to all types of buildings.
