Abstract:
This assessment addresses the implications for the historic environment at land south west of Hampton, Evesham (centred on NGR SP 020 430) on behalf of Bellway Homes Ltd, who intend residential development of the site. The assessment aimed to identify heritage assets within the site, to establish their significance, and to consider whether they would be affected by development. The assessment involved collecting and analysing a range of sources including Historic Environment Records, maps and archives. It was also informed by a site visit. The results of the assessment can be summarised as follows: There are no designated heritage assets within the site but there are undesignated heritage assets in the form of ridge and furrow and historic hedgerows. The ridge and furrow is concentrated in the south of the site, where it has been seen as crop and soil marks, but is also shown by the line of the orchards planted in the north of the site. The historic hedgerows have not met the criteria for importance as designated by the Hedgerow Regulation Act 1997. Therefore their overall significance can only be assessed by their age and their input to the landscape of the site. Other undesignated assets in the form of archaeological deposits may exist within the proposed development area, though their extent and date cannot be assessed. Historic Environment Record entries for the surrounding area provide a context for archaeological remains within the vicinity. The topography of the site indicates where remains of ancient settlement and land use are most likely to exist. On this basis it is possible to identify a moderate potential for Roman deposits and a lower potential for prehistoric or Saxon deposits in the north and east of the site. According to the current development framework two of the six identified historic hedgerows would be removed: the others would be retained and improved.
