Abstract:		 The present route of the A595 near Bothel has its origins as a Roman road linking Papcastle to Carlisle, though there is little evidence for Roman settlement in the vicinity of Bothel, a settlement first documented in c. 1125. Elements of Bothel's medieval origins are preserved in the present landscape, and several moated sites and towerhouse dot the wider study area. The majority of extant features within the study area, however, date to the post medieval period, reflecting the impact of enclosure on agricultural processes, and the wider increase in population and industry, demonstrated by extractive activity. The Roman route was likely utilised throughout the medieval and post medieval periods, formalised as a turnpike road in the 18th century with associated infrastructure, some of which survive. It was diverted to bypass Bothel in the 1930s and upgraded to become the A595. A total of 118 known heritage assets have been identified within the study area and 49 of these are at risk of direct impact from the Scheme, 26 being potential historic hedgerows, and the remaining being a grade II listed milestone. The remaining 22 of the 49 known heritage assets at risk of direct impact are of local significance
