All sites identified by the SHLAA and ELAA were assessed in a two stage process. This comprised 453 potential development sites subdivided by type as follows: SHLAA 2018 0 - 5 Year Sites: 157 SHLAA 2018 6 -15 Year Sites: 67 SHLAA 2018 Green Belt Sites: 150 SHLAA 2020 0 - 5 Year Sites: 3 SHLAA 2020 6- 15 Year Sites 12 SHLAA 2020 Restricted and excluded: 1 ELAA 2018 Available Sites: 22 ELAA 2018 Not Available Sites: 37 ELAA 2020 Town Centre Office Sites: 2 ELAA 2020 Not Readily Available Sites 2 Seven sites with identical boundaries appear on both the SHLAA and ELAA. These sites (the ELAA numbers in brackets) comprised C86 (CE46); C504 (CE73); N13 Part 1 (NE2); N13 Part 2 (NE2); N18 (NE6); N57 (NE8); and R127 (RE24). These sites were assessed once in the HIA under their SHLAA numbers. In line with the guidance set out in Historic England Advice Note 3, the aim of the exercise was to identify those sites on which development would have the potential to harm the significance of designated and non-designated heritage assets with a view to avoiding that harm. A further aim was to identify opportunities to better reveal the significance of heritage assets through sensitive development. The objectives of the exercise were: • To identify the heritage assetspresent; • To assess the significance of those assets, their setting and the contribution of their setting to significance; • To assess to what extent the site contributes to the significance of the asset; • To describe the potential impact of development on the site on the asset; and • To identify opportunities for development to maximise enhancement and minimise harm. To aid the assessment AECOM’sGISteam preparedGISmapping containing the following data: • Ordnance Survey base mapping; • SHLAA and ELAA site boundaries; • Conservation Areas; • Designated heritage assets; • Staffordshire Historic Environment Record (HER) data; • Locally Listed Buildings; and 1 Cannock Chase Heritage Impact Assessment - 2020 • Chase Through Time mapping. In the first stage of assessment, sites for which no significant impact on heritage would occur as a result of development (apart from the possibility of undiscovered archaeology) were taken out of the assessment. Sites for which it was considered development could result in impact on heritage assets, either physicallyor as a result of change to setting, were taken through to the next stage. These included sites where: • A designated asset or assets (listed building or scheduled monument) was present within the site boundary; • The site was within a conservation area; • The site was within the setting of a designated heritage asset (listed building, scheduled monument or conservation area); • There was a non-designated built heritage asset within the site boundary; • There was significant non-designated archaeology within or close to the site boundary; or • The site formed an essential part of the setting of a significant non-designated asset. Of the 453 sites assessed, 142 fell into one or more of these categories. Prior to the second stage assessment the following site types were removed from the assessment: • Completed sites; • Sites located within a conservationarea or within the setting of a conservation area, but with no other heritage constraints; and • Sites containing non-designated built heritage assets of very low or negligible significance. For sites located within a conservationarea or within the setting of a conservationarea , but with no other heritage constraints the requirements for new development set out in the relevant Conservation Area Management Plan Supplementary Planning Document should be brought to bear for all applications. A total of 69 SHLAA sites and seven ELAA sites were taken through to the second stage of the assessment. A proforma was produced to facilitate the second stage of the assessment. The site is identified at the top of each proforma by its name, type and planning reference. The proforma continues with five sections to be completed as follows: • Identification of heritage assets; • Significance and contribution of setting to significance; • Potential impact of allocation on significance; • Maximising enhancement and mitigating harm; and • Conclusions and recommendations. In the first section designated and non-designated heritage assets within and in proximity to the site are identified. In the case of designated heritage assets their designation and National Heritage List for England (NHLE) number is given. In the case of non-designated assets identified from HER data references their HER UID is given. In the second section each asset is described, its significance and setting are assessed and the contribution the site makes to that significance discussed. The definitions of significance and setting used were taken from the National Planning Policy Framework (2019) and are reproduced here in full: 2 Cannock Chase Heritage Impact Assessment - 2020 Significance (for heritage policy): The value of a heritage asset to this and future generations because of its heritage interest.
