Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology was contracted by Innogy UK Ltd. to undertake an archaeological assessment of 2015 and 2016 geophysical data acquired from the proposed Export Cable Route (ECR) corridor for the Galloper Offshore Wind Farm site. This was undertaken as part of ongoing assessments in advance of the proposed development, and incorporates previous interpretations undertaken by Wessex Archaeology in 2010 and 2015. This report is an amended version after interpretation of the nearshore and final infill data acquisition. Data assessed from the following types of geophysical surveys: sidescan sonar, magnetometer and multibeam echosounder. A total of 603 anomalies have been identified within or impacting on the proposed ECR corridor; fourteen of which have been assigned an A1 discrimination ('anthropogenic origin of archaeological interest'). A total of three historic wreck records of A3 archaeological discrimination exist ('historic record of possible archaeological interest with no corresponding geophysical anomaly'); two of which represent contemporary accounts of recorded losses. A further 586 anomalies of A2 archaeological discrimination ('uncertain origin of possible archaeological interest') have been identified within the ECR corridor. |
