Abstract: |
A heritage assessment was undertaken on behalf of Lioncourt Strategic Land at Orchard Farm, Pershore, Worcestershire (NGR ref (SO 93432 45283); HER ref WSM68390). The area of proposed development contains no designated heritage assets, though a Grade II Listed Building lies on the site's boundary. Two assets were identified as part of this assessment, and these relate to an assart (woodland clearing) probably medieval in origin and boundary earthworks relating to it. There is potential for assets existing as buried archaeological deposits relating to either prehistoric to Roman occupation or settlement, isolated medieval activity relating to either occupation or woodland exploitation. The impact of the development has been assigned a minor adverse impact on known assets and there is potential to make a beneficial impact through design that reflects the wooded enclosure of the assart. |
