Abstract:
Capita Symonds on behalf of their client Mr Jones, commissioned Oxford Archaeology North (OA North) to undertake a programme of archaeological work at a site proposed for the erection of a dwelling at 109 Church Street, Workington, Cumbria (centred NGR NX 9964 2897). Planning permission was granted, with a condition to carry out a programme of archaeological work. To this effect a brief was issued by Cumbria County Council's Historic Environment Service (CCCHES) requesting that a rapid archaeological desk-based assessment and watching brief was required during any groundworks. The proposed development site is situated within the probable medieval town, near to the twelfth century Church of St Michael and, as such, is located within the St Michael's Conservation Area. It is also within an area designated by the Cumbria Extensive Urban Survey (EUS; Hartley and Hardman 2002) as being of high archaeological potential. Previous to the rapid desk-based assessment it was believed that the site was positioned within an area of medieval tenements known as the Cloffocks, identified in the EUS from historic mapping. This, together with the proximity of the site to St Michael's Church and its location within the medieval core of Workington, indicated that there was potential for remains of this period or later that would be impacted by the proposed development.
