Abstract:		 In order to determine the archaeological potential of the Watershyppes Clubhouse, Brocket Hall, Welwyn, Herts, The Heritage Network was commissioned by the developer, to undertake a desk-based archaeological assessment and historic buildings impact assessment of the site. The study area consists of a group of listed and other buildings which form part of an 18th century estate, developed on a medieval manorial estate. No specific medieval or Saxon activity has been recorded in the immediate vicinity of the study area, but a Roman occupation site exists on a natural plateau within 200m, and Iron Age activity has been recorded throughout the locality. The development proposals include the construction of a line of new buildings to the north of the existing buildings. This will involve the excavation of the existing slope to the north of the entrance courtyard, which is the most likely potential location for surviving archaeological remains predating the 18th century. The excavation of footings for the new conservatory, to the south of the Laundry House, has the potential to uncover post-medieval remains associated with the original courtyard, and remains associated with the former pumphouse which stood in this location. The impact of the proposed development on the existing historic buildings will be visual rather than physical, but is not considered to be greater than that of the existing extensions to those buildings.
