Archaeological Assessment CPM Cirencester : CPM , 2004, 22pp, figs, refs Work undertaken by: CPM A desk-based archaeological assessment was prepared in advance of a proposed prison extension. No archaeological remains were recorded within the site itself, but a number of burials of probable early medieval date had been recorded 'at the prison' during previous works. The assessment indicated that similar archaeological finds and subsurface features relating to an Anglo-Saxon cemetery may have survived within the study area. Information suggested that previous finds had been made on the south- western side of the prison. Further archaeological mitigation was recommended. The report also contained a previous watching brief (May 2004) report carried out during test pitting and borehole excavation.

This statement should be read together with all additional documents submitted for this application. 2.0 Site Description and Setting The site is located on the corner of Church Road and Church Close, Darton, Barnsley S75 7HQ in South Yorkshire. Access into and out of the building is currently via a sloping path that has a gradient of approximately 1:14. There is no intermediate landing and only one handrail which is at approximately 1100mm from the gradient pitch line which is outside the limits of the required 900mm height. There is also no upstand to either side of the gradient. This is the only access to and from the building for visitors as there is no stepped access. The main visitors’ car park is across the road on Church Close. Dropped kerbs are already in place. There is also another car park to the rear of the building. Visitor access from this car park is via the existing footpath and up to the area where the entrance gradient begins at the corner of Church Road and Church Close.

  • Barnsley Rail Vision 2018 to 2033
    Barnsley Rail Vision 2018 to 2033 Getting Barnsley on Track Key Messages 1 Barnsley Rail Vision Getting Barnsley on Track Foreword The 1980’s and earlier rail rationalisations were particularly savage in disconnecting Barnsley Dearne Valley and the former coalfield communities of South East Wakefield and the ‘Five towns’ from the direct inter-city and inter-regional rail network. This had the further consequence of those communities being marginalised by subsequent rail investment. Today Barnsley Dearne Valley passengers experience poor rolling stock deployed on routes with low line-speeds and journey times that compare poorly against car travel. The Barnsley Rail Vision is welcomed as setting out a strategy for re- connecting Barnsley and its neighbouring Wakefield and Kirklees communities more directly to inter-city and inter-regional rail services. Delivering the vision will enable the Barnsley Dearne Valley economy – 10th most populous built up area in the Northern Powerhouse – deliver its full potential to both Sheffield and Leeds City Regions and the Sheffield- Barnsley-Wakefield-Leeds growth corridor. We look forward to promoting to key stakeholders full awareness of the rail vision and its importance to the national and sub-national economy and urging them to ensure inclusion of its aspirations in their own infrastructure and operational investment strategies. In particular HS2, Northern Powerhouse Rail, Network Rail and inter- city/inter-regional franchise investment strategies must provide excellent, high quality services linking Barnsley Dearne Valley and its Wakefield and Kirklees neighbouring communities and into the national high speed networks. Dan Jarvis MBE MP, Mayor of the Sheffield City Region Barnsley, its Dearne Valley and western rural communities all have a place in the Barnsley Rail Vision.
