Abstract:		 The study area for the assessment encompasses the area over which the scheme could be reasonably expected to have an effect. With respect to archaeology, this generally only relates to the areas anticipated to be directly disturbed by the proposed works. However, consideration of a wider study area outside the site is necessary as outlined below: ● Designated heritage assets (see Section 4.2) have been assessed within the site, plus a 1km buffer. This is considered a wide enough area to take into account any impacts on designated heritage assets and/or changes to their setting. ● Non-designated heritage assets (see Section 4.3) have been assessed within the Site plus a 500m buffer. This has allowed a consideration of all known archaeological remains, which may indicate the potential for further unrecorded archaeological remains within the Site. The following actions have been undertaken for this assessment: ● An examination of the local and national planning policies in relation to the historic environment; ● A search of the National Heritage List for England1 (NHLE) for Listed Buildings, Registered Parks and Gardens, Scheduled Monuments, World Heritage Sites and Registered Battlefields within the study area; ● A search of the Warwickshire Historic Environment Record (HER) for archaeological sites, archaeological findspots and other non-designated heritage assets within the study area; ● A review of the relevant documents relating to the masterplan and archaeological investigation undertaken within the masterplan site to date. ● An examination of the relevant published and unpublished archaeological and historic sources e.g. journals and historic records; ● An examination of topographical and geological evidence; and ● A map regression exercise using historic maps, as available online, to determine previous land use of the site There are no designated heritage assets within the site or study area. There are archaeological remains within the site, as identified by archaeological investigation. The Iron Age D-shaped enclosure and Romano-British field system pit alignment are of potentially moderate significance. Archaeological remains, features and deposits within these areas have been recorded, in accordance with the WSI, and no remains are anticipated to survive in situ in these areas. There remains a residual risk of impact to unknown buried remains within the site outside of the excavated areas, particularly associated with the Middle Iron Age and Romano-British phases of settlement. This includes the potential for further human remains to be recovered in the north west, where a cremation burial was identified. Although built heritage is not the focus of this preliminary survey, no built heritage constraints have been identified on the construction of the school except for the potential for change in the setting of Top Farm, which may be considered a non-designated heritage asset. This has been considered as part of the outline planning application for the masterplan area.
