Abstract:
Lingley Mere Business Park Development Company submitted a planning proposal for the development of land at Lingley Mere, near Warrington, Cheshire. OA North undertook a desk-based assessment (2004), which identified a number of sites including a post-medieval farm (Site 10), two cropmarks likely to be ponds (Sites 11 and 12), and a possibly medieval wood (Site 19). A post-medieval mill (Site 13) and a kiln (Site 14) lay just south of the proposed development area. Following the advice of Cheshire County Council Historic Environment Service, the local planning authority requested as a condition of the development, that an archaeological watching brief be maintained on thoe intrusive groundworks close to these sites. Oxford Archaeology North was commissioned to undertake the works required to satisfy the planning conditions. The works were undertaken in two stages in 2006 and 2007. The first phase, monitoring groundworks within the central part of the site, comprised of the excavation of a large retention pond between the existing building of Borrow New Hall and the location of the proposed business park. This coincided with the locations of sites 10-12 and 19. Much of the area covered by standing water, so visibility was very restricted, and no archaeological deposits or artefacts were observed. The second stage of monitoring observed groundworks at the southern end of the site, close to Site 13. During the works, no evidence of the mill structure, associated components, or any other archaeological remains, were observed.
