Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned to undertake an archaeological assessment of geophysical data obtained from the proposed Subzone 1 and Offshore Cable Route of the Round 3 Hornsea Zone. The review included an assessment of these results in conjunction with both historical data and previously acquired geotechnical and geoarchaeological data. A total of 494 geophysical anomalies of possible archaeological potential were identified; Of these, 10 have been identified as wreck sites with a further 11 considered of high archaeological potential, and 13 are recorded wrecks or obstructions that have not been definitively identified within the geophysical data. A number of palaeogeographic features, all interpreted as Holocene features, were identified along the Offshore Cable Route, of which a number were considered to be of possible archaeological potential. These included a series of dendritic fluvial channels of high archaeological potential which record a period of time when the Offshore Cable Route was exposed as a terrestrial environment and is likely to have been inhabited by Human communities. |
