Abstract: |
The project comprises a heritage statement commissioned by North Lincolnshire to inform a proposed development within land at Yeadland Flats, Belton Road, Epworth, North Lincolnshire (hereafter 'the site') located at NGR: SE 78010 04406. The proposal is for a residential development. The site comprises an area of open agricultural land on the edge of Epworth. The area was historically part of the open field system of Epworth and retains a number of landscape features diagnostic of its former division into strip fields. The surrounding area has evidence of human activity dating back to the Mesolithic period, and there is a low potential that this extended into the site. The site has significance as part of a wider landscape of ancient open fields within the Isle of Axholme which whilst non-designated has been previously identified to be of national interest. The site also makes a small positive contribution to the setting of the nearby Grade II Listed Maw's Mill and Epworth Conservation Area, and a key positive contribution to the setting of the non-designated Brook's Mill which borders the site. Whilst the details of the proposed residential development at the site have yet to be finalised, it is likely that any level of development within the site will result in some level of harm to the historic environment. It is considered that a sensitively scheme could reduce, although not fully avoid, harm through design. Any residual harm will be weighed against the public benefits of the scheme. |
