Abstract: |
ARCHAS Cultural Heritage Ltd. were appointed by Terrenus Environmental on behalf of The Natural Power Company Scotland Ltd to complete an archaeological Desk Based Assessment (DBA) and walkover survey in advance of a proposed development at Dippool Farm, Fordmouth near Carnwath in South Lanarkshire (centred on NGR: NS 98015 50626). The proposed development involves construction of a solar to hydrogen renewable energy project across an area covering 18.52 hectares. The development area was identified during scoping as one with archaeological potential. As a result, the client requested a DBA and Walkover Survey of the site be completed in order to inform the proposals and the council decision. This assessment identifies any archaeological features that may be affected by the development and recommends mitigation as required. This report will guide South Lanarkshire Council's archaeological response to the project. The DBA and walkover demonstrated that no known archaeological sites, features or built heritage were identified and the development will have no direct impact on any known features. A number of sites were identified within the environs of the development, one of which had the potential to be indirectly affected - a mausoleum on the perimeter of the development. While the setting of this monument is important, the DBA discussed this and on the whole showed the impact of the development to be minor. |
