Whilst there are no designated heritage assets within the site boundary, the grade I listed All Saints Church lies to the north of the site. Therefore, any development of this site has the potential to impact upon the significance of this heritage asset. However, the church is at some considerable distance and there is substantial planting between the church and the site and therefore we do not consider it likely to have an impact on the heritage asset.
Bullet point 3 states that the HER should be consulted to determine the need for any archaeological surveys prior to development. In our view, some assessment is needed to inform any planning application.
We therefore advise that bullet point 3 should be amended to read, ‘Planning applications should be supported by archaeological assessment including the results of field evaluation where appropriate.’
