Abstract: |
TThe proposed development site has been found to have lain within a medieval toft, probably associated with Town Head Farm, one of several farmsteads fronting the roads and together forming the settlement plan of the medieval village of Great Salkeld. A former benchmark on the west face of the western boundary, a sandstone dry-stone wall, have been identified as having the potential to be directly impacted on by a development within the site boundary. This would likely result in a limited impact on heritage significance in relation to this asset. It has also been found that a development within the site boundary would result in a limited impact on the heritage significance of the Great Salkeld Conservation Area, with no appreciable impact on nearby listed buildings, except for the grade II* listed Church of St Cuthbert, for which there is limited intervisibility. There is the possibility of as-yet unknown buried remains surviving within the site, particularly regarding the close proximity of the medieval village of Great Salkeld, and the fact that artefactual remains of the period have been found during a former archaeological investigation in the study area. A site to the west has received planning permission, but has had a condition of further archaeological mitigatory work imposed. |
