Mansion House, Hurstpierpoint is a prominent and historically significant Grade II * listed Georgian village property in Hurstpierpoint, South East England. The substantial family home is situated in the heart of Hurstpierpoint with the High Street at the front and South Downs to the rear. The brick faced timber framed building has surviving medieval sections dating back to the mid to late 16th century. The earlier origins of the property remain unknown but reportedly date back to 1350. Maggie Henderson, an historic buildings archaeologist, was commissioned to carry out a historic building survey of the grade II * Listed Mansion House, High Street, Hurstpierpoint, West Sussex. The report was commissioned to assess the origin and development of the property over time based on the surviving fabric of the building. As part of the project, a programme of documentary research was also carried out including an assessment of available historic maps. == Scope and methodology == The principal elements of the survey involved the creation of a record and description of the historic building together with an analysis and interpretation of the building’s origin and historic development. The building was visited by Maggie Henderson in order to carry out the on-site recording work. Subsequent visits were made by the author accompanied by Jane Briscoe in the first instance and David and Barbara Martin of the Rape of Hastings Architectural Survey. The survey, a visual, non-intrusive examination of the fabric comprised the compilation of a detailed description of the building supplemented by an internal and external digital photographic record including details of all surviving historic fabric, features, fixtures and fittings. A set of measured outline survey drawings of the house, including plans, sections cross-sections were created. As always, the findings are based on the extent of visible fabric at the date of inspection. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mansion House - Hurstpierpoint」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
