Abstract:
Planning Permission has been granted at appeal (subject to conditions) for the construction of a photovoltaic park with associated PV equipment on land at Hook Valley Farm, Wincanton, Somerset, centred on NGR: ST 685 285. In accordance with the NPPF, a Planning Condition has been attached to the permission to safeguard any archaeological interests. Pre-Construct Archaeological Services Ltd., were commissioned by Solar Power Generation Ltd to undertake archaeological work on site. A previous assessment of the site based on information held in the Somerset Historic Environment Record, a geophysical survey, and a ten trench evaluation that revealed enough archaeological potential to expand two areas into a strip, map and record phase of excavation. Both areas in this excavation provided good archaeological evidence. Area 1 contained a total of 51 cut features, and produced finds, which included Mesolithic worked flint, fragments of Iron Age and Medieval pottery. Whilst Area 2 contained a medieval enclosure, as well as one related structure and a possible hearth. These results suggest a long history of occupation on this site.
