Bald Faced Stag, 36 Edward Street, Southampton (SOU1571)

The project was an archaeological building record, to level 2, of the cellar of the Bald Faced Stag public House at 36 Edward Road in the Freemantle area of Southampton. The public house dates from the 1870s when it was known as the "Stag Inn." Stylistic and map evidence suggests that the upper stories may have been rebuilt at some time between 1896 and 1909. The bricks used in the cellar were smaller than those of the ground floor, perhaps indicating that the cellar belonged to the original building phase of the 1870s. The cellar was originally accessed by a brick staircase at the north end, but this was replaced by a wooden stair against the west wall. This change may either have occurred during the refurbishment/rebuilding of about 1900, or when the bar area was reformed, probably in 1965.

本项目为南安普顿弗里曼特尔区爱德华路36号白面雄鹿酒馆酒窖的二级考古建筑档案。该酒馆始建于19世纪70年代，时称“雄鹿客栈（Stag Inn）”。风格特征与地图史料显示，其上层楼层或于1896至1909年间的某个时段进行过重建。酒窖所用砖块较首层更小，或表明该酒窖属于19世纪70年代的原始建造阶段。该酒窖原本北端设有砖砌楼梯作为入口，后改为依附西墙的木质楼梯；这一改动或发生于约1900年的翻新/重建工程期间，亦或是在1965年左右进行酒吧区域改造之时。
