Abstract: |
The character of the study area is characterised by a patchwork of mainly small nucleated settlements and discrete settlement, some of which pre date 1770, and many of these are associated with documented medieval assarts. As such, the preserved early fieldwork pattern is retained, meaning that many of the surviving hedgerows may be protected under Hedgerow Regulations 1997. These would be of district or county significance, likely to require further mitigation should they be adversely impacted. Of the 92 known non hedgerow heritage assets, 21 may be identified as being of higher than local significance. For four of these, this is based on known criteria, in that they are designated sites, and the assessment of the potential impacts of development on these designated assets is not within the remit of this archaeological study. Of the remaining 17 assets, as most of these were previously unknown, their significance would depend on how well they survive, and whether a good state of preservation might warrant their inclusion on a local list. The strong legibility of landscape elements of medieval origin and the rarity of studies concentrating on dispersed medieval settlement might suggest that many of the assets in the study area may be of higher than local significance. Further features, identified through cropmark evidence, and known within the Historic Environment Record database, may also prove to be of higher significance. |
