Abstract:		 Lilleshall Hall was built de novo in the 1820s, and its park laid out in the 1830s, for the Dukes of Sutherland. The park was augmented and expanded towards the end of the 19th century, but was sold in 1914×1918. It briefly served as an amusement park, children's home and school before being opened as a National Sports Centre in 1951. Lilleshall Hall is a Grade II* Listed stately home with Grade II Listed ancillary buildings and garden features within a Grade II Registered Park. Since 1951, a series of large modern buildings have been constructed around the historic core, mostly obviously to the east where they flank the historic approach to the house from the main drives to the Gatehouse. A golf course has been built to the east, and the former open parkland to the south has been adapted to playing fields. The proposed biomass boiler building would be located on the eastern side of the complex next to Wenlock Hall. The archaeological implications of the proposed build are likely to be relatively slight, as the footprint of the build falls within an area likely to have been heavily disturbed during the construction of Wenlock Hall. The archaeological implications of the installation of the underground pipes which will connect with other buildings in the complex is also minimal for the same reasons, running as they do largely within areas disturbed by construction. The proposed development would constitute a minor to moderate change to the current setting of some of the heritage assets nearby. Individual and collective changes since 1951 have already had a profound impact on the setting of the Listed assets here. The proposed biomass boiler building would be located immediately adjacent to an existing structure, and would benefit from some screening provided by parkland trees. Replanting of trees to the south and southwest will ensure that it is also screened from the approach from the south, and the approach from the Gatehouse.
