Abstract:
The results of a desk-based assessment and walkover survey carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) for land at Castle Cary Railway Station, Ansford, Somerset in advance of a planning application for the site. The site comprises two small plots of land immediately north-east of Castle Cary Train Station; between the railway line and the River Brue. The site is north of the railway line, with industrial sheds, vehicles and debris (including old freight carriages) in the western plot, and the eastern plot remaining mostly clear bar some debris. Within 1km of the site are predominantly post-medieval structures associated with the railway lines and the turnpike road. Medieval and Roman activity has been identified on the higher ground to the north and south of the site, but the buried archaeological potential for the site appears low. In terms of indirect impacts, most of the designated heritage assets in the wider area would not be impacted upon by any proposed development. Three assets which lie in close proximity to the site were considered in more detail in this assessment, none of which would be affected by the proposed development (neutral to negligible), with minor impacts to the Historic Landscape. With this in mind, the overall impact of the proposed development can be assessed as neutral to negligible. The impact of the development on any buried archaeological resource may be permanent and irreversible.
