Abstract: |
Baseline information has been gathered within a 250m radius from the site boundaries of each of the sites (hereby referred to as study areas 1-7 for each of the seven sites). This search radius is considered sufficient to produce a comprehensive baseline, due to the small scale of the proposed scheme. It will allow for an understanding of the archaeological potential and historic significance to be established, and subsequently for the impact of the proposed works to be understood. This technical note has been informed by desk-based research, utilising the following sources: ● An examination of local, regional and national planning policies in relation to the historic environment; ● A search of the Historic England National Heritage List for England (NHLE) dataset for designated heritage assets within the study area; ● A search of the local Historic Environment Records (HER) database for non-designated heritage assets within the study area; ● A search of the relevant published and unpublished archaeological sources within the wider area via the Archaeological Data Service (ADS); ● An examination of the British Geological Survey (BGS) data; ● An examination of Google Earth Pro, for historic images; ● An inspection of the cartographic evidence for the land use history of the site; and ● An examination of the other available online historic sources (identified in footnotes where relevant). This technical note has been undertaken to assess the likely historic environment impacts of the proposed scheme in Southend-on-Sea. This has incorporated a review of the available data from the NHLE and Southend HER within the study areas for the different sites. Within the study area there is one scheduled monument and two grade II listed buildings. At the suggestion of Historic England, an additional scheduled monument was also considered in this assessment. There is likely to be no impact on the significance of these assets, as there are no physical changes to the assets or proposed works that would impact their settings. The archaeological potential of all the proposed scheme sites is considered to be low to medium for archaeological remains from all periods. Additionally, due to coastal erosion and previous development at the scheme sites, it is unlikely that archaeological finds and features have survived. |
