Abstract: |
An archaeological desk-based assessment was undertaken in advance of the proposed construction of 24 new apartments with surface parking and gardens. The site could be shown to have a low archaeological potential for the early prehistoric periods and a moderate archaeological potential for the later prehistoric periods. The site had a moderate archaeological potential for the Roman period. The site had a low archaeological potential for the Saxon, early medieval, late medieval and post-medieval periods. The survival of archaeological deposits on the west of the site had been severely compromised by the construction of the existing and former buildings. On the remainder of the site any archaeological deposits present were now sealed by between 0.90m and 2.50m of modern fill. It was unlikely that the new apartments on the west of the side would have any significant archaeological impact due to past post depositional impacts. On the remainder of the site any archaeological remains present could be preserved in situ beneath the new gardens and surface parking. On the basis of the available evidence the report did not recommend the implementation of any further archaeological mitigation measures. [Au(adp)] |
