Abstract:
As a result of a proposed planning application for the re-development of an area of the Quayside quarter of Workington, Cumbria County Council's Historic Environment Service (CCHES) advised that an archaeological desk-based assessment and site visit was required. The desk based assessment concludes that the proposed re-development area has a low potential for recovering evidence for prehistoric to early medieval activity, a moderate potential for medieval remains and a high and known potential for below ground post-medieval to modern remains, comprising of housing and factories. These remains, if preserved, might offer important insights into the later social history of Workington. However, the level of destruction of archaeological deposits at the proposed re-development site remains unknown. Archaeological attendance during systematic invasive geotechnical work or a trial trench evaluation would resolve these presently unknown issues of preservation and potential.
