Abstract: |
Hall Wood is a relatively remote valley with distinctive topography and historic or semi-natural landscape, featuring a potential early linear boundary, remains of ancient woodland including a possibly pre-Norman boundary, and a post-medieval or earlier warren. Its heritage resource contributes significantly to the value of the settings of several sites of National Importance. It contains part of a Scheduled prehistoric fort, Hall Rings. The linear boundary, if confirmed as such, may be part of the Giant's Hedge, part Scheduled. Plans for forest lodges and associated works in the wood and on the approach to it include elements with potential adverse impacts on earthworks and buried remains, considered to be significant elements of the settings of Hall Rings and of other heritage assets beyond the main study area. Measures to avoid or reduce such potential direct (physical) impact are identified and are considered to mitigate for it satisfactorily (subject to approval by the LPA). These include archaeological watching brief, and section recording for the potential linear boundary should this be disturbed. Potential visual and traffic impacts from the scheme are also identified for consideration, together with suggested further archaeological mitigation (not related to any particular direct impact). |
