Archaeological Evaluation Report Lytham Hall, Lytham, Lancashire

Whittall, Kirsty

Abstract

In July 2015, Salford Archaeology (formerly known as the Centre for Applied Archaeology) were appointed by Simon Thorpe of the Heritage Trust for the North West (HTNW) to lead a programme of archaeological works at the Grade I listed Lytham Hall in Lytham, Lancashire. The trust was successful in obtaining a Heritage Lottery Fund grant to restore the buildings and the archaeological works are a response to the physical works which could affect the historic fabric. However there is also a further opportunity to explore the history of the site through investigating the below ground remains also. The Heritage Lottery Fund also places a strong emphasis on learning and participation, therefore volunteers also play a strong role in helping to understand the history of Lytham Hall.
