Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by CGMS to undertake an archaeological evaluation of land on Cheverton Down, to the north-west of the village of Shorwell on the Isle of Wight, centred on National Grid Reference 444100, 084200 (hereafter the Site). Planning permission for three wind turbine generators with hub height of 80m and rotor diameter of 90m (tip height 125m) has been applied for. Following submission of the application, the Isle of Wight Council has requested further information on the possible archaeological impacts of the proposed wind farm in the form of evaluation trenching. The evaluation trenches excavated on the proposed wind turbine locations identified a small number of archaeological features in addition to numerous geological anomalies and natural features. |
