Abstract:
A planning application was submitted by Vattenfall UK to connect the Ormonde Offshore Windfarm to the Heysham Electricity Sub-Station in Lancashire. Part of the works involved the excavation of a trench from the landfall at Half Moon Bay, Heysham, (SD 4075 6085) to the sub-station (SD 4200 5986). RPS Planning and Development, at the request of Vattenfall UK, had previously compiled a desk-based assessment on the route of the cable to assess the impact of the development on the potential archaeological resource (RPS Planning and Development 2009). Based on the results of this document, Lancashire County Archaeological Services (LCAS) requested an archaeological watching brief to be conducted on the excavation of the cable trench in three areas as a condition of the planning consent. Oxford Archaeology North were employed by RPS Planning and Development on behalf of Vattenfall UK to carry out the archaeological watching brief, which was undertaken November of 2009, April-June and September of 2010. No archaeologically significant deposits were recorded in the watching brief undertaken between the sea wall and Old Smithy Lane at Half Moon Bay. Approximately 2m of cable trench still needs to be excavated at this location, to be undertaken in 2011, although it is argued that given the nature of the findings to date that no further work should be done.
