Abstract: |
A desk-based assessment and walkover survey was carried out of a proposed pipeline near Singleton, Fylde, Lancashire (SD 37998 38417 to 36467 39293) following a recommendation by the Specialist Advisor (Archaeology) at Lancashire County Council (LCC). The desk-based assessment comprised an examination of all of the information held in the Lancashire Sites and Monuments Record (SMR), aerial photographs and primary and secondary documents held at the Lancashire County Record Office in Preston (LRO(Preston)). A brief background to the area, outlining the main geological, topographical and historical features was prepared. This is intended to provide a general context for the results of the desk-based assessment, and help define the sort of remains that might be expected and the conditions in which they might be found. In total, 36 sites were identified by the desk-based assessment and walkover survey; ten of these were already recorded on the SMR. The walkover survey, which identified ten of the sites, primarily recorded the survival of field-systems already identified, along with numerous clay/marl pits which were adjacent to the proposed pipeline route. The relative significance of the sites was assessed in order to identify which were worth additional work if they were affected. Only sixteen sites were considered likely to be affected by the proposed development, and recommendations for further work were outlined based on the likely severity of the impact and the significance of the site. |
