| Abstract: |
The area considered for development covered an area of c.3.68ha and lay to the east of the canalised course of the River Nene. The site lay in an area of potentially rich archaeological remains. There were prehistoric and Roman remains in the vicinity but nothing was known from the site itself. The site appeared to have been agricultural or horticultural over the last two centuries. Apart from Selwyn Farm on South Brink and a house in the north-western part of the area there did not appear to have been any development during the past century and recently it had been under grass. To the north of the site there had been housing development and to the east a superstore had been built in recent years. The evidence of past activity in the area and the lack of recent development on the site implied a high potential for preservation of any remains within the development area. [Au(abr)] |
