Abstract:
Border Archaeology (BA) has been instructed to produce an Archaeological Desk Based Assessment with regard to a planning application for the proposed demolition of an existing dwelling and erection of a replacement three-storey dwelling with basement at 35 Sudbury Court Road, Harrow, London HA1 3SD. This ADBA assesses the impact of the proposed development on buried heritage assets (archaeological remains). It forms an initial stage of investigation of the proposed development site and may be required in relation to the planning process, so that the local planning authority can formulate an appropriate response in the light of the impact upon any known or potential heritage assets. These are parts of the historic environment which are considered to be significant because of their historic, evidential or aesthetic and/or communal interest. The overall archaeological potential of the site has been assessed in overall terms as Low to Moderate, with particular reference to encountering possible evidence of medieval occupation associated with the hamlet of Sudbury and the nearby manorial site at Sudbury Court (designated as an Archaeological Priority Area). Although the site is located about 150m WSW of the manorial site at Sudbury Court, evidence of medieval occupation has been identified in the surrounding vicinity. The potential for prehistoric, Romano-British and post-medieval remains has been assessed as Low. However, as the site of the new dwelling will be largely located within the footprint of the existing house, it is likely that any buried features and deposits will already have been disturbed by previous groundworks, thus reducing the likelihood of encountering significant archaeological remains. Recommendations: It is BA’s considered opinion that, prima facie, the archaeological potential of the site does not present an impediment to the proposed development. Given the Low to Moderate potential of the site in archaeological terms, it is suggested that a limited watching brief on the excavation of the basement and foundations for the proposed new dwelling may be the most appropriate form of mitigation, in this instance.
