Abstract: |
Planning permission (W/15/00658/OUT) for a proposed single dwelling with revised access to serve No 3 Church Street was approved on appeal by the Borough Council of Wellingborough on land adjacent to 14 Avenue Road, Finedon, Northamptonshire. The development area (DA) is situated in the north-west margin of Finedon, less than 100m to the east of the church. It is centred on grid reference SP 91335 72020 and covers an area of c. 0.25 ha. The DA is an open plot of land, located on the south side of Avenue Road. At the time of the fieldwork it was a largely grassed garden, bisected by a gravel access track to No. 3 Church Street, immediately to the south of the plot. The Assistant Archaeological Advisor (AAA) for Northamptonshire County Council advised that due to the archaeological potential of the site a programme of archaeological mitigation would be required. Accordingly a condition (no. 5) was attached to the appeal decision. The entire footprint of the proposed building was stripped to the underlying ironstone geological strata on 5th September 2017. In addition, a soak-away and associated drainage run were excavated into ironstone on the same day. Notwithstanding the DA's archaeological potential, no evidence of former human activity in the form of archaeological features or artefacts was revealed during the groundworks No further analysis or reporting is required beyond deposition of the archive and unloading of this report onto the OASIS database (ref. albionar1-290555). |
