Abstract:		 A number of resources were consulted in the production of this heritage statement, including: ● Cambridgeshire Historic Environment Record (HER) (received 02/02/22); ● The National Heritage List for England (NHLE); ● Local, regional and national planning policies relating to the historic environment. This includes conservation area appraisals and management plans; ● Available online cartographic sources; ● Additional available online historic resources; ● Huntingdonshire Archives Mott MacDonald have been commissioned by Huntingdonshire District Council to produce a historic environment desk-based assessment (DBA) for four proposed development areas within the St Neots Priory Quarter / Priory Centre area. Within proposed development area 1 a four-storey residential building with a plot size of 3,382 m2 is proposed, whereas within proposed development area 2 a three-storey building with a plot size of 2,076 m2 is proposed for both retail and residential use. Within proposed development area 3 a three-storey building with a plot size of 1,157m2is proposed for both office and community use, within area 5 a three-storey building with a plot size of 1,196m2 has been proposed for residential use. The proposed development areas are located within the town of St Neots to the east of the River Great Ouse, within the Ouse Valley and fall within the St. Neots conservation area. Two scheduled monuments and 126 listed buildings are within the 1km study area. There are no designated or non-designated heritage assets within the proposed development boundaries, however, it has been determined that the scheduled Priory likely extended further than it’s scheduling suggests. This assessment has identified that there are known archaeological remains within the study area, indicating that there was activity within this landscape from the prehistoric period. Cartographic and aerial photographic evidence indicate that only proposed development area 1 has remained undeveloped. The potential for palaeoenvironmental evidence within the proposed development areas is considered to be medium. The potential for archaeological remains dating to the early medieval and medieval is considered to be high within all proposed development areas, with remains dating to the late post-medieval considered to be high within proposed development areas 1-3. The potential for early post-medieval remains is considered to be medium within all proposed development areas, with the potential for late-post medieval remains within proposed development area 5 also considered to be medium. The potential for Prehistoric, Roman and Modern remains within all proposed development areas is considered to be low.
