Abstract: |
AB Heritage was commissioned to carry out an Archaeological Desk Based Assessment for a site at Paiges Lane, Barnstaple, Devon. There is one known non statutory recorded feature within the proposed development site,in the form of 4 Holland Street [AB 89]. The historic interest is unknown and the specific form, function and importance of the structure needs detailed assessment. The town has been continually developed and re-developed since the Early Medieval period onwards. This situation is likely to be reflected on the site of proposed development where past construction, such as that of 4 Holland Street [AB 89], may have partially truncated surviving archaeology; however, due to the anticipated depth of below ground remains and the localised nature of such past impacts, it is possible archaeology from all periods still survives. Based on the above information it is concluded that there is a medium potential for the recovery of archaeology dating to all periods within the limits of proposed development. While it cannot be confirmed at this time, the perceived value of the above features are likely to be of local-regional. |
