This report has been prepared to support the HS2 Sustainability Statement including Post Consultation Update, a report which describes the extent to which the Government’s preferred scheme for HS2 Phase Two supports objectives for sustainable development. This document is a technical appendix which summarises the methodology adopted and conclusions of the Cultural Heritage appraisal, informing the Sustainability Statement main report. The Sustainability Statement places emphasis on the known key impacts only at this stage in the design, prior to commencing the Environmental Impact Assessment. 2. SCOPE AND METHOD 2.1. Scope of the appraisal 2.1.1. The Cultural Heritage appraisal focused on five types of heritage asset. Scheduled Monuments, Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas are three of the five designated asset types and all three are protected by primary legislation. Registered Parks and Gardens (RPGs) and Battlefields are also designated heritage assets; however, these are not offered the same protection by statute. 2.1.2. The reasons for the exclusion of other assets of archaeological and heritage interest are set out in the ‘Assumptions and Limitations’ section below. 2.2. Methodology 2.2.1. Due to the strategic nature of the appraisal, the Appraisal of Sustainability (AoS) adopted a suite of study areas to capture an understanding of the potential heritage assets that could be impacted. This included the following, with distances measured from the edge of the extent of the proposed operational earthworks: Registered Battlefields and Registered Parks and Gardens within 1km; Conservation Areas within 500m; and Listed Buildings and Scheduled Monuments within 350m. 2.2.2. There are a small number of designated assets that lie within expansive and open landscapes outside of these study areas and these assets could be sensitive to some forms of change. These comprised Bolsover Castle, Towton Battlefield and Hickleton Hall. Therefore these assets have been included within the appraisal. 2.2.3. Impacts arising from the operational footprint of the preferred route (including stations and depots) were considered. These were divided into two categories, direct impacts and setting impacts. Direct impacts arise from physical impacts to the asset. Setting impacts arise from changes to the surroundings of an asset which contribute to its heritage significance and changes to the way in which significance is experienced. This appraisal has not considered impacts that may arise from construction works and other associated ancillary works. Page 1 2.3. Use of sources 2.3.1. Geospatial digital mapping data and associated text descriptions on Listed Buildings, Scheduled Monuments, Registered Battlefields and Registered Parks and Gardens (RPGs) were derived from Historic England. 2.3.2. The Conservation Area boundaries were obtained from the relevant local planning authorities and digitised by the project team in order to create mappable GIS data. 2.3.3. Further information on the significance of heritage assets was obtained from readily accessible on-line sources which typically comprised Conservation Area Appraisals and Conservation Management Plans for RPGs. 2.3.4. More detailed Scheduled Monument descriptions were available on-line through the National Heritage List for England maintained by Historic England. For some assets, the list contained only the briefest of descriptions - or occasionally no substantive data at all - and in these cases the data was augmented by on-line Historic Environment Records held by County or Unitary authorities. Additional information on battlefields was gathered through the website of The Battlefield Trust. 2.3.5. The key source of information for appraising the potential impacts on both heritage and archaeological assets was the GIS mapping. The preferred route, including earthworks data and route buffers, were supplied by HS2 Ltd in a GIS format. Buffers for the 350m, 500m and 1km study areas boundaries were created to help capture the relevant information. 2.3.6. Plan and profile drawings for the route alignments were also made available to support the appraisal process, to better understand how the proposed route would change the landscape and townscapes. On-line aerial images, Google ‘streetviews’ and specific images of heritage assets were also used to assist the appraisal, alongside site visits to selected locations. 2.4. Evaluation criteria 2.4.1. Section 3 of this Appendix lists and describes all of the designated heritage assets that lie within the study areas referred to in Section 2-2. The potential impacts are presented for the western and eastern legs respectively, south to north in terms of each heritage designation. 2.4.2. For the purposes of this appraisal a simple four tiered approach to presenting the scale of impacts has been adopted. These adverse impacts comprise Major, Moderate, Minor and No Impact, as summarised in Table 2-1. Table 2-1 – Cultural Heritage Evaluation Scale Scale of Example description of impact adverse impact Major A change such that the significance of the asset is totally altered or destroyed (e.g. demolition of a structure). A comprehensive change to the setting of an asset affecting its significance such that relevant elements of its historic context can no longer be experienced or understood. Moderate A change that adversely affects key elements of the significance of a heritage asset. Changes to the setting of an asset that compromises our ability to experience or understand its significance. Page 2 Scale of Example description of impact adverse impact Minor A change that affects the significance of a heritage asset, such as one that perceptibly alters part (or parts) of its setting. Although the nature of this change will affect the way in which its significance is experienced, our ability to understand its historical context is unaffected. No impact1 The change will not result in any impact on the significance of the asset or the way in which it is experienced. 2.4.3. The adoption of a methodology that focuses on the impacts of the change on the significance of heritage assets ensures that a far more robust appraisal is presented than one that is derived purely from associating the scale of impact with the proximity of the scheme to the asset. Some heritage assets that lie relatively close to the scheme can be unaffected (or have only a minor impact), while greater impacts can come to heritage assets that lie further afield from the scheme but where the change is directed towards its significance. This approach is aligned with industry good practice. 2.4.4. The main report of the AoS focuses on those heritage assets that are likely to be most greatly affected by the preferred route (those that are appraised as being Major or Moderate impacts). 2.5. Assumptions and limitations Assumptions 2.5.1. It was assumed that there would be no impact on any heritage assets located along the line of the scheme where the route was within bored tunnel. It has been assumed that no substantive impacts would arise from vibration or settlement. 2.5.2. It was assumed that the Conservation Area datasets received is up to date. Limitations 2.5.3. Inevitably given the strategic nature of the AoS process, the appraisal is relatively high level and should not be confused with a full and detailed environmental impact assessment. The level of detail of the appraisal is commensurate with the data available and the strategic nature of the preferred route. Work has relied primarily on desk study supported by a number of site visits. 2.5.4. It was not always possible to make a robust appraisal of the impacts on a heritage asset using available on-line imagery. Aerial imagery only presents a single perspective of the landscape / townscape and not one that forms a meaningful contribution to the understanding of the ‘experience’ of an asset. Google Streetview images do not cover all roads, particularly minor roads or lanes can be absent; and hedgerows and other built form can often obscured views

    WW GUIDE THE PEAK FOREST AND ASHTON CANALS You begin in urban Manchester – and 21 miles later, you’re in a historic basin in the glorious Peak District, moored up beside a real pub. Richard Fairhurst savours a fine canal journey The Ashton Canal FOR MANY YEARS, THE ASHTON CANAL was synonymous with all that was wrong with urban waterways. The 1896 Oarsman’s Guide was uncompromising: “Its course is entirely through a manufacturing district with the usual unpleasant surroundings. The vapour rising from its waters caused by the factories on the banks, condensing their exhaust Bugsworth steam therein, is sometimes so thick as Basin. to make it diffi cult to see one’s way.” Downloaded by David A Calverley from waterwaysworld.com June 2012 Waterways World 71 WW GUIDE 1 1 Ancoats Lock 1 – By the 1960s, its star had sunk lower note the duplicated still. Though never formally closed, it was chamber. totally unnavigable: its channel dry, its lock-gates rotten or swinging loose. Local councillors and anxious parents demanded its infi lling. Its branches to Stockport and Hollinwood were abandoned, and the main line, like so many industrial urban waterways, looked set to go the same way. What saved it was an idea fi rst hatched in 1965: the Cheshire Ring. Adventurous holidaymakers were beginning to discover the canal system, and circular routes were perfect for a week’s holiday. The Ashton and adjacent canals would provide the ‘missing link’ in one such route. Volunteers from the Peak Forest Canal Society, the Inland Waterways Association, and (latterly) the new Waterway Recovery 2 Group set about bringing the canal back to life.

  • Manchester Urban Historic Landscape Characterisation Section 7
    7 Manchester’s Historic Character – Analysis and Recommendations 7.1 Unenclosed land broad type Figure 4 The area of the former Shadow Moss is indicated by the distinctive field boundary patterns depicted on OS 6” 1 st edition mapping of c1882 Description This character type comprises areas that are currently of low economic value and where there is little or no settlement. It includes marginal land such as open mossland and marsh, and other unimproved land which may nonetheless be exploited, such as common land, pasture and moorland. Unenclosed land only occurs in Manchester district as a previous type. 7.1.1 Open moorland Description and historical context Moorland does not exist as a current type within the Manchester landscape; it appears as a previous type only in the Baguley Moor area. Some areas of the former moorland have not been developed and although their character has changed, they may still contain palaeoenvironmental and archaeological evidence. 27 For example, the playing fields associated with Brookway High School (HLC Ref HGM13548) and the playing fields east of Church Stoke Walk (HLC Ref HGM13842) have both been enclosed from farmland that was formerly moorland. 7.1.2 Mossland Description and historical context Although there is no surviving untouched mossland in Manchester, there were several mosses in the district in the past. Mossland has thus been recorded as a previous rather than a current character type. Like the upland moors, the former lowland mosses were probably enclosed at a relatively late date. The three main former mosses in Manchester are Hough Moss in the area which is now Moss Side and Whalley Range; Shadow Moss, near Moss Nook and Manchester Airport in the south of the district; and White Moss, near Charlestown in the northern part of the district.

  • Greater Manchester Canals Heritage Partnership Agreement
    GREATER MANCHESTER CANALS HERITAGE PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT Revised 2014 21.5.14 1 Review- 21/05/2014 Greater Manchester Canals Heritage Partnership Agreement EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Greater Manchester Canals Heritage Partnership Agreement (HPA) is intended to improve the management of heritage assets upon the various Canal & River Trust (CRT) canals situated within the Greater Manchester area. It is intended that the HPA, which brings together the principles of existing CRT heritage guidance and processes will provide reassurance for local planning authorities (LPA’s) and stakeholders that works of repair are completed to a high conservation standard. The canals within Greater Manchester are a multi-designated historic environment that contains high value heritage assets. These assets include archaeological remains, working heritage, listed buildings and conservation areas and are subject to ongoing development and maintenance. The HPA is designed to reduce bureaucracy, save time on consent procedures and embed effective heritage management within the corporate culture of CRT by increasing both accountability and self-regulation. The HPA is based around a traffic light system of agreed works that are categorised in terms of requiring consent (red) or clearance (amber) or are permitted works (green). The partners of the Greater Manchester Canals HPA are: Canal & River Trust (the main landowner), English Heritage, Bolton Council, Bury Metropolitan Borough Council, Manchester City Council, Oldham Metropolitan Borough Council, Rochdale Metropolitan Borough Council, Salford City Council, Stockport Metropolitan Borough Council, Tameside Metropolitan Borough Council, Wigan Council and the Greater Manchester Archaeological Advisory Service (GMAAS). The HPA will run for a period of five years and shall be subject to annual monitoring and review by the partners, with the potential for further extension at the discretion of the partners.
