Abstract: |
The research has found that the southern part of the proposed development site was utilised by the Burgess Land Coal Pit and contained two shafts, a possible engine house, a square building, a pond and a track for access, in 1850. By 1893, none of these features survived, and from this date onwards, the land was used for agriculture, with seven former field boundaries once surviving within the site. Any development in this area will have a substantial impact on these features within the site boundary, and further archaeological work is likely to be required. This risk of archaeological potential is lessened in the northern part of the site, where 20th century levelling occurred to provide a level playing field |
