Abstract:
In order to assess the archaeological risk posed by a proposal to construct three new dwellings on a former builder's yard between 84 and 85 Tilehouse Street, Hitchin, the Heritage Network was commissioned by Lantern Construction Ltd to undertake a desk based archaeological assessment of the site. The map evidence shows that the study area has remained largely undeveloped since at least the mid 17th century, and is likely to have remained so since the late medieval period. Archaeological remains of late prehistoric, Romano-British, Anglo-Saxon and medieval date have been recorded in the vicinity. On the basis of the known evidence, there is a high risk that archaeological remains, of potential significance, could be preserved on the site, and would be damaged, destroyed or otherwise affected by it's development. The actual nature of such remains, if they are present, can only be characterised by intrusive investigation.
