Abstract:
In order to assess the archaeological risk posed by a proposal to redevelop the site of the North Hertfordshire College, Cambridge Road, Hitchin, the Heritage Network was commissioned by North Hertfordshire College to undertake a desk-based archaeological assessment of the site. The map and aerial photographic evidence shows that the northern end of the study area was occupied by Walsworth House and its associated grounds. The southern end has remained largely undeveloped since at least the mid 18th century, and is likely to have remained so since the late medieval period. Archaeological remains of late prehistoric and Romano-British date have been recorded in the vicinity. On the basis of the known evidence, there is a moderate risk that archaeological remains, of potential significance, could be preserved on the site, and would be damaged, destroyed or otherwise affected by its development. The actual nature of such remains, if they are present, can only be characterised with any certainty by intrusive investigation.
