Abstract: |
DBA for RSPB. The results of this DBA suggest that there is a moderate to high potential for there to be archaeological material from most periods throughout the Proposed Development Area (PDA). There is a greater potential in the western part of the PDA for encountering Roman material associated with the known occupation site within and adjacent to the PDA. The documentary study has highlighted the potential for there to be an Anglo-Saxon and medieval watermill within the PDA close to Langham Bridge. The topographic and hydrological properties of the PDA indicate that there is a high potential for encountering waterlogged or palaeo-environmental material. The land-use of the PDA until the end of World War II was reclaimed marshland, maintained as pasture. In the post-war period until the 1990's the PDA was in use for arable production. Post 1990 the PDA was returned to pasture. Therefore any archaeological remains present under the cultivation layer are likely to be preserved. |
