Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by DONG Energy A/S on behalf of Barrow Offshore Wind Ltd to conduct an archaeological assessment of geophysical data acquired for post-construction monitoring for the Barrow Offshore Wind Farm, Lancashire centred on 480600 E, 5982550 N (WGS84 UTM zone 30N).
Wessex Archaeology has previously completed a desk-based assessment of the potential impact of the scheme on the marine archaeological environment prior to its development and an archaeological protocol for the development stage of the wind farm. The previous archaeological works had defined ten exclusion zones: eight within the wind farm area and two on the cable route. The post-construction monitoring has confirmed that all the recommended exclusion zones appear to have been observed with geophysical anomalies found within all ten exclusion zones.
Two new sites of high archaeological potential have been identified from the review of the post-construction monitoring survey, both of which are located on the cable route. These sites lie within areas of complex geology and may have natural origins.
No sites of high archaeological potential were identified within the navigation route area. |
