Abstract: |
A desk-based assessment for the historic environment was undertaken at Flanesford Priory, Goodrich, Herefordshire (HER reference HSM 832; NGR SO 5792 1938). It was completed on behalf of Mr Nigel Roper, who intends demolition of one modern barn adjacent to the historic buildings and construction of a workshop and a grain store further to the north, for which a planning application will be submitted. A separate application will be made for construction of a weighbridge. Listed building consent will also be sought for removal of a modern barn, which partially obscures a historic barn. This report describes and assesses the significance of the heritage assets (and potential heritage assets) that are likely to be affected by the application. The setting of heritage assets is also considered. The impact of the proposed development is considered to be primarily beneficial to the conservation and setting of heritage assets, some of which are of the first importance. The main reasons for this lie in the removal of a modern barn that helps to visually separate the modern farmyard from the historic priory and later farm. This improves views especially from Goodrich Castle. A historic barn will also be fully exposed by the removal of the modern barn. The three new buildings are screened from views from the castle and Kerne Bridge. An archaeological evaluation has demonstrated that it is highly unlikely that significant deposits will be affected by the proposed development. |
