Description

Fermyn Woods Hall Hall is Grade II* listed and has its origins in the 17th century although it has been significantly extended and remodelled throughout its history. The archaeological work took place during the creation of a new doorway between two existing first floor rooms. The demolition work cut through a plaster and lath stud wall dating to the mid-19th century with no earlier building materials being disturbed. The results of the investigation indicate that the two rooms were created within an earlier room by the insertion of the 19th century stud wall and that one of the rooms had its floor raised in order to avoid a step into the adjacent room.
