Abstract: |
This desk-top assessment has been commissioned by P2M (UK) Ltd on behalf of Batavia Road 1 Limited as part of the submission of an application in relation to the proposed redevelopment of the site at Batavia Road, New Cross, SE14 6BQ. The site lies in an APZ as designated in the London Borough of Lewisham's LDF. A study of the known archaeological remains within 500m of the site has revealed that there are 26 entries on English Heritage's GLHER. Cartographic evidence shows the site has been developed since 1746, prior to which it lay in cultivated fields and open land. Based on the archaeological and cartographic evidence there is thought to be a low probability of finding prehistoric, Saxon, Roman or Medieval remains; and a moderate probability of finding post-Medieval remains on the site. The application is for a mixed-use commercial/residential development comprising two blocks: a part 4/part 5 storey building along Batavia Road; and a part 5/part 7 storey building along Clifton Rise. The block along Clifton Rise and part of the northern element on Batavia Road will have accommodation involving construction below existing ground levels. Due to truncation of the site from earlier and current development, the site is thought not to contain any archaeological deposits of importance which should be preserved in situ. |
