Abstract: |
Border Archaeology has undertaken a Heritage Assessment of a proposed Free Range Egg Production Unit at Greenfield Poultry Unit, Ash Magna, Whitchurch, Shropshire, based upon a consultation of readily available sources of archaeological and historical information together with a site visit. Out of the 10 heritage assets considered, only two were identified as having views towards the site of the proposed development, namely, Christ Church, Ash Magna (a Grade II Listed Building) and the possible enclosure feature 150m NW of Ashwood Cottages. The site of the proposed development at Greenfields Poultry Unit cannot be viewed from the other heritage assets, being obscured by terrain and/or existing buildings, tree cover and hedges. In the case of Christ Church, Ash Magna (a Grade II Listed Building), the overall significance of impact of the proposed development on views looking either towards or from the church has been assessed as Neutral/Slight. This reflects the fact that these views are very heavily obscured by existing tree cover. In summary, it may be stated that the potential for encountering significant archaeological remains on the site, in overall terms, may be assessed as Low. The results of the visual impact assessment demonstrate that the proposed development, in overall terms, will have no measurable impact on views to or from specific heritage assets identified in the vicinity of the proposed poultry site, including the nearby Grade II listed building of Christ Church, Ash Magna. |
