Abstract: |
This technical note has been prepared to provide a summary of the existing archaeological information available in relation to the proposed construction of a new flood wall at Church Street, Whitby. The flood wall will be aligned on the west side of Church Street, for the site location see drawing 362876-MMD-00-XX-DR-C-1002. The location of the new flood wall will hereafter be referred to as the proposed development area. Information has been gathered from a search of the North Yorkshire Historic Environment Record and the results of an archaeological watching brief of geotechnical investigations undertaken in preparation for the construction of the proposed works. In conclusion, there is considered to be a moderate potential for post-medieval remains to be encountered during the proposed works. In addition, there is a low potential to encounter remains dating to the medieval period. These remains are considered to have the potential to be of local/regional significance. It is recommended that an archaeological watching brief is undertaken during excavations for the proposed works in accordance with a written scheme of investigation, the scope of which should be agreed with the North Yorkshire Historic Environment Team Archaeologist. |
