Abstract: |
A geophysical (magnetometer) survey, covering approximately 5 hectares, was carried out at the proposed site of a three turbine windfarm to the south-east of Heysham. The survey covered areas of 1 hectare, centred on each turbine base, and a 20m wide corridor along the route of the access tracks and cable runs. Anomalies caused by sub-surface pipes, modern disturbance and recent agricultural activity have been identified. A number of possible archaeological anomalies have been identified in the area encompassing the proposed location of Turbine 3. However, all these anomalies are beyond the area that will be impacted by the proposed scheme layout. Therefore, on the basis of the geophysical survey the site is considered to have a low archaeological potential. |
