Abstract: |
This report sets out the results of an Archaeological Investigation of monitoring and observation that was carried out on the 26th April 2012 during the groundworks associated with the erection of one 50kW wind turbine to generate electricity for farm use on land south of Gladvic Farm, Main Street, Potter Brompton, Scarborough, North Yorkshire, (SE 97064 76506). The Archaeological Investigation was undertaken as a pre-planning requirement attached to the Planning Application Consent (Ref: NY 12/00158/FUL). Based on a previous fluxgate gradiometer survey of the site (Landscape Research Centre, 2009), the development had the potential to affect significant archaeological remains associated with a landscape spanning the prehistoric to medieval periods. Accordingly, the developer was required by the heritage unit at North Yorkshire County Council to arrange for a programme of Archaeological Work to be carried out prior to commencement of the development. The initial groundwork stages of the wind turbine base installation involved the preliminary topsoil strip of an area by an excavator. Machining initially ceased at the surface of the wind-blown sand deposit revealing the absence of archaeological remains. Subsequently, the area was excavated by machine to formation level, the course of the wind-blown sand being levelled in shallow spits to enable the identification of archaeological features, deposits or finds (none were present). All machining took place under archaeological supervision. No archaeological features, deposits or finds were encountered during the Archaeological Investigation. |
