Abstract:		 North Lanarkshire Council commissioned WSP to undertake an Archaeological Desk Based Assessment in advance of a phase of Ground Investigation for a site suitable for future development. This document will identifies the likely types of archaeological remains, if existing, which may be encountered within the Site, and the impacts of the GI work on the archaeological resource. As identified through Historic Map Regression and aerial images, the majority of the Site has remained relatively undeveloped with the Site currently occupied by modern play park to the south and a large grassy area that was a former playing field to the north. The eastern extent is occupied by a small clubhouse and the construction of this building and the playgrounds may have had a detrimental impact on the potential for the survival of the archaeological resource. The south-eastern section of the Site formerly contained part of Old Bellshill Village. The demolition of the village in the 19th century and subsequent re-development in the 20th century including shopfronts and the playground, would have had a damaging impact on the potential for survival of the village structures. However, there is a potential for remnants of these to survive as sub-surface remains in the form of possible foundations or remnants of field systems further from the road. The other undeveloped areas also have the potential to contain remains of previously unknown archaeological assets. The high density of potential Medieval activity in the surrounding area and the nearby Prehistoric artefact suggests that there is the potential for the discovery of previously unknown archaeological deposits
