Abstract:
The present document provides a report on a baseline cultural heritage assessment undertaken by The Archaeological Practice Ltd as part of the overall environmental impact assessment for the proposed Eldon Square improvement scheme. The report incorporates an audit of both discrete and more extensive historical landscape components and presents a synthesis of the overall chronology of the defined area. The report aims to identify areas or locations where further investigative evaluation is necessary to clarify areas of uncertainty regarding the nature and significance of the archaeological resource and makes recommendations regarding the work required to mitigate the impact of the scheme. The main findings of the assessment are that successive phases of development have occurred within the bounds of the development area since the Norman period or earlier, with the majority of potential remains of these periods of development having been removed in turn by each succeeding phase, leaving only isolated pockets of potential, principally along relatively undisturbed historic street frontages. Recommendations based on these findings call for the archaeological examination of geotechnical test excavations carried out for structural engineering purposes, to establish the presence or absence of archaeological remains. Any remains of significance revealed during this process should be recorded. Should complex archaeological remains be encountered and insufficient time available in which to record them, subsequent, more detailed archaeological evaluation may be warranted. Further archaeological evaluation is likely to be required along the Newgate Street frontage and in the area between Newgate Street and Clayton Street.
