Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Planning and Design Group on behalf of the Chatsworth Settlement Trustees to carry out an archaeological desk-based assessment of land off Worksop Road, Mastin Moor, Chesterfield centred on National Grid Reference (NGR) 445559 375356. This assessment has established that there a potential for the presence of buried archaeological remains, in particular relating to 18th and 19th century coal mining activities in the western part of the Site. However, due to a lack of previous archaeological investigations, the potential and significance of any such remains could not be assessed. The Scheduled Monument, Grade I Listed Building and Grade I Registered Garden at Bolsover Castle may be negatively affected by the proposed development. The proposed development will have a Minor impact on the setting of the castle but will be part of a cumulative effect on the historic landscape around the castle from development. Three Grade II Listed Buildings lie within close proximity to the Site; Netherthorpe Grammar School, Norbriggs House and the Church of St Peter. It is considered that the effect of development on Norbriggs House will be Negligible due to the presence of extant screening and similarly at Netherthorpe Grammar School due to the distance between the Site and the asset. The effect of the proposed development on the setting of The Church of St Peter is considered to be Moderate due to the proximity of the building to the Site and the lack of any apparent screening. It is likely that additional archaeological work may be necessary. A geophysical survey of the Site is recommended in the first instance. |
