Abstract: |
The primary objective of this desk-based assessment is to assess the impact of the development proposals on the historic environment, including designated heritage assets. This will help inform future decision making, design solutions and potential mitigation strategies. The aim is to make full and effective use of existing information in establishing the archaeological significance of the site, to elucidate the presence or absence of archaeological material, its character, distribution, extent, condition and relative significance. The work includes a comprehensive assessment of regional context within which the archaeological evidence rests and aims to highlight any relevant research issues within national and regional research frameworks. No registered Historic Landscape, Conservation Area, Scheduled Monument, registered Historic Park & Garden or Listed Building, will be directly or indirectly affected by the proposed development. There are eight non designated archaeological sites recorded on the Suffolk HER within the proposed development site. In total there are 39 sites recorded within a 1km radius of the site. Only two of these, possible Roman Road (TNG011 MSF664) may be directly impacted by the development. The 19th century farmstead at Park Farm (TNG042 MSF39963) lies outside the planning application boundary but within FCC's landholding and will not be directly impacted by the development., However, the majority of the proposed development is situated within the former extraction area and therefore impact will be minimal. The archaeological potential of the site is assessed at negligible for the former gravel extraction pit and medium for other parts of the site. |
