Craven Fold Farm, Langho Lancashire ARCHAEOLOGICAL BUILDING INVESTIGATION

Planning permission for the demolition of Craven Fold Farm, Langho, Blackburn, Lancashire (SD 69380 36385), was granted by Ribble Valley Borough Council (RVBC). The demolition is part of a project to construct a new larger dwelling on the site (planning reference 3/2005/0434/P). RVBC was advised by Lancashire County Archaeology Service (LCAS) that, due to the historic interest of the building, a condition of the planning permission should be an archaeological building investigation to take place prior to demolition. Oxford Archaeology North (OA North) was commissioned to carry out the work, which was undertaken in November 2009.
