Abstract: |
A desk-based assessment which considered sources including the Historic Environment Record, historic mapping, aerial photographs, archaeological research and site walkover survey has been completed. The research demonstrated that the site has already been significantly impacted by development in the 20th century which resulted in the excavation of the site with subsequent landfilling and restoration in areas to the south and west of the site. It was though that any previously unrecorded archaeological remains would have been removed and no further works were recommended. Within the remainder of the site were two recorded sand pits of post-medieval date of negligible heritage value and no further archaeological work was recommended. The site of Totty's Hall lies within the east of the study area. The Hall was present in the mid 19th century, however it had been substantially rebuilt in the late 19th century. it is not considered to be of significant heritage interest and no further works are recommended. The Grade II Listed Leighton Hall Farm was located to the north-west of the development site. Potential setting issues were identified and the introduction of vegetation screening recommended. Within the north-east of the site there was considered potential for previously unrecorded remains of prehistoric or Roman date to be identified. Further archaeological research was recommended. |
