Abstract: |
This heritage assessment has been prepared in support of an outline planning for residential development. The application site is located south-west of the village core lying immediately south of Main Street and comprises an approximately rectangular plot of land covering an area of c. 3.7 acres (1.5 ha). A map regression exercise and documentary research were undertaken to provide a background to the history of the site. The land appears to have always been in agricultural use with no evidence of any development. In the 19th century it was part of a fruit orchard and the subsequent removal of the tress may have caused some disturbance to any archaeological remains that might be present. Undesignated heritage assets within the study area mainly lie north-east of the site, except for two areas of medieval ridge and furrow to the west and the site and a medieval tile kiln immediately to the north of the site. The archaeological potential of the site for all periods is considered to be low, on the current available information, except for the proximity of the medieval tile kln and the presence of further industrial activity cannot be ruled out. . The land is currently under cultivation and access to the site is not possible until after harvest. It is proposed that geophysical survey, followed by trial trenching be carried out in order to identify what mitigations measures may be necessary once there is detailed information on specific ground impacts through the site. |
