Abstract: |
In February 2021 KDK Archaeology undertook an Archaeological Observation and Recording at White Hart Farm, Stocking Pelham, Hertfordshire. The work, which is part of a requirement of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF), has been defined by Alison Tinniswood of Hertfordshire County Council on behalf of the Local Planning Authority (LPA), East Herts Council. No archaeological features or finds were encountered. This may be because prior, post-medieval and modern development on the site truncated any evidence of human activity in the area. Despite the site being a historic farmstead and Grade II Listed barn, within an Area of Archaeological Significance, the excavation of the drainage trenches and plot for the new water tank within the yard of the barn conversion did not reveal any archaeological features, deposits or artefacts. The groundworks exposed multiple layers of surface and made-ground, and the natural substrate was only observed within Plot 1. The extensive ground disturbance and lack of top/subsoil may well be due to the construction and later reworking of the of the barn and adjacent outbuildings as well as the installation of services in the 20th century. |
