Abstract: |
<summary>Bromsgrove District Council commissioned the Archaeology Section of Hereford & Worcester County Council to develop a series of archaeological policies for their Local Plan. The policies were based upon broad guidelines in the DoE's then draft {italon}Planning{italoff} {italon}Policy Guidance 16:{italoff} {italon}Archaeology and Planning{italoff}. In order to develop the policies a rapid assessment of the archaeological resource within the district was undertaken, involving examination of the Sites and Monuments Record, cartographic sources, Listed Building information, aerial photographs and historical sources, together with selective site visits. The rapid assessment, and in particular the examination of a collection of aerial photographs taken in 1989, revealed a total of 47 previously unrecorded sites. These included 10 groups of ring-ditches, 13 enclosures and 2 buildings showing as crop marks. The final stage of the project involved the designation of mapped zones of archaeological constraint, based upon the rapid assessment, which would provide the local authority planners with an early warning system when receiving applications for development within areas of potential archaeological sensitivity. In addition, the project contributed a series of policies for inclusion into the Local Plan, to ensure that archaeology would become a material consideration within the planning process. {italon}Sec(abr)(21a){italoff} |
