Abstract:
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Innogy UK Ltd on behalf of Galloper Wind Farm Limited to undertake an archaeological assessment of the Unexploded Ordnance (UXO) Clearance and Disposal survey data attained for the offshore transmission areas (OFTO), comprising the Export Cable Route (ECR) and Offshore Substation Platform (OSP), undertaken as part of the Galloper Offshore Wind Farm (GWF) project. This document details the results of this assessment. A total of 340 remotely operated vehicle (ROV) targets were reviewed for the archaeological assessment; 312 within the ECR, 34 within the OSP, and six that lie within both the ECR and OSP areas. The majority of these targets were selected as UXO targets for ROV survey, however additional ROV targets were added by Wessex Archaeology to gain further insight into the material present. Of the 340 ROV targets, 240 corresponded with geophysical anomalies identified by Wessex Archaeology. Of the 340 ROV targets, 259 related to material encountered on the seabed, which were classified as 78 targets are of archaeological interest; 110 targets are of possible archaeological interest; five targets are of unknown archaeological interest that were excavated through the ROV dredge pump before they could be assessed; and 66 targets that relate to modern debris of no archaeological interest. Mitigation measures were recommended for each individual target or site, based on professional opinion and past experience.
