Abstract:		 The site lies in the Broad Green APZ as designated in the London Borough of Croydon's UDP. The submitted application is for the proposed demolition of the existing car rental depot and garage and the building of 37 residential apartments in a seven-storey building. The site has been developed since 1858 prior to which it lay in open or agricultural fields. During the late 1850s a large villa was built which was subsequently divided into two semi-detached houses by 1894. These remained until c.1932 when the two semis were converted back to a single villa. Following the Second World War the villa was again divided into two semi-detached houses until some time after 1955 when the houses were demolished and replaced with a car maintenance garage which is now used as a car hire depot. A study of the archaeological remains within 500m of the site has revealed that there is a low occurrence of sites: two from the prehistoric period; six from the Roman period; one from the medieval period; and 12 from the post-medieval period. Five archaeological investigations produced negative results. Based on this evidence there is thought to be a low probability of finding any prehistoric, Saxon or medieval remains and a low to medium probability of finding Roman and post-Medieval remains on the proposed development site. Due to truncation of the site from previous development, the site is thought not to contain any archaeological deposits of importance which should be preserved in situ.
