Abstract: |
Following a proposals by Louise Hetherington (Planning Application 4/04/2611) for a residential development at Numbers 1 and 2 Howgill Street, Whitehaven, Cumbria (centred NX 9725 1788), Cumbria County Council Historic Environment Service (CCCHES) requested that an initial scheme of archaeological investigation be undertaken to further inform the planning process. This initial programme comprised a desk-based assessment and visual inspection followed by an archaeological evaluation. Following the acceptance of a project design to meet the requirements of the CCCHES brief for this work, Oxford Archaeology North (OA North) was commissioned to undertake the initial phase of work in June 2005. Although future groundworks associated with any development of the site will have a negative impact on the mid-eighteenth century buried and standing archaeological remains associated with 2-5 Howgill Street (Site 19), the seriousness of this impact has been partially mitigated through the archaeological recording of a sample of the sub-surface remains and through the photographic recording of the rear boundary wall. |
