Abstract:
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by AMEC Power and Process Europe, on behalf of Centrica Renewable Energy Limited to undertake archaeological interpretation of marine geophysical data for three additional areas of Race Bank and Docking Shoal Offshore Wind Farms, associated with the export cable routes. This report comprises the interpretation of multibeam bathymetry, magnetometer and sidescan sonar data and an archaeological impact assessment covering the additional areas. The results identified a total of 13 sites in Area 1, of which one is a probable unknown wreck and two are UKHO wreck losses. A total of 25 recorded sites were identified in Area 2, none represented distinct wrecks or probable wreck material. A total of 80 sites were identified in Area 3, comprising six wreck sites or pieces of probable wreck material. The assessment also identified a possible palaeo-channel within Area 3. In order to facilitate the design stages of the development, 50 m temporary buffers have been placed around the extent of each known or probable wreck site (WA7038-WA7043). As the assessment of marine geophysical data did not establish the presence and extent of UKHO wreck loss records WA7100 and WA7001, a 100 m temporary buffer has been placed around the previously recorded centre point of each wreck. No temporary buffers have been proposed for the 109 anomalies of uncertain origin, though these remain of archaeological interest. These can be addressed on a case by case basis in the Written Scheme of Investigation once a detailed development scheme has been agreed.
