In compliance with an approved project design a total of 4 trenches, each measuring 30m in length, were excavated throughout the proposed development area. Natural greensand was revealed at a height of between 105.47m and 106.92m AOD, sealed by subsoil and topsoil. One irregular feature of probable natural origin was revealed cutting the Greensand within Trench 1. 3 Land off Witchcombe Lane, Great Cheverell, Devizes, Wiltshire: Archaeological Evaluation © Cotswold Archaeological Trust 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 In May 2002 Cotswold Archaeological Trust (CAT) carried out an archaeological evaluation for Hannick Homes and Developments Ltd on land off Witchcombe Lane, Great Cheverell, Devizes, Wiltshire (centred on NGR: ST 9799 5400, Fig. 1). The evaluation was undertaken to accompany a planning application for the construction of 20 dwellings with vehicular access. 1.2 The evaluation was carried out in accordance with a detailed project specification produced by CAT (2002) and approved by Sue Farr, Archaeological Officer, Wiltshire County Council on behalf of Kennet District Council. The fieldwork also followed the Standard and Guidance for Archaeological Field Evaluations issued by the Institute of Field Archaeologists (1999) and the Standards for Archaeological Assessment and Field Evaluation issued by Wiltshire County Council Archaeological Service (1995). It was monitored by Sue Farr who also visited the site on 28th May 2002. The site 1.3 The site is approximately 0.9 ha in area and lies to the west of the village, adjacent to Witchcombe Lane (Fig. 2). It lies at approximately 107m AOD, with the ground rising gently to the north. 1.4 The underlying geology of the area is mapped as Upper Greensand of the Cretaceous period (Geological Survey of England and Wales, Sheet 282). 1.5 The site is currently open grassland and is traversed by the Fawley to Avonmouth petroleum pipeline (see Fig. 2 for location). Archaeological background 1.6 The proposed development site lies within an area of archaeological potential. In particular Wiltshire SMR records the presence of third to fourth century Romano- British coins, pottery, and metalwork, possibly indicative of contemporary settlement, 200m to the north of the site. 4 Land off Witchcombe Lane, Great Cheverell, Devizes, Wiltshire: Archaeological Evaluation © Cotswold Archaeological Trust Archaeological objectives 1.7 The objectives of the evaluation were to establish the character, quality, date, significance, and extent of any archaeological remains or deposits surviving within the site. This information will assist the Local Planning Authority in making an informed judgement on the likely impact upon the archaeological resource by the proposed development. Methodology 1.8 The fieldwork comprised the mechanical excavation of 4 trenches, each 30m long and 1.5m wide, representing a two per-cent sample of the proposed development area. 1.9 All trenches were excavated by mechanical excavator equipped with a toothless grading bucket. All machine excavation was undertaken under constant archaeological supervision to the top of the first significant archaeological horizon or the natural substrate, whichever was encountered first. Where archaeological deposits were encountered they were excavated by hand in accordance with the CAT Technical Manual 1: Excavation Recording Manual (1996). 1.10 Deposits were assessed for their palaeoenvironmental potential and, where appropriate, sampled and processed in accordance with the CAT Technical Manual 2: The Taking of Samples for Palaeoenvironmental/Palaeoeconomic Analysis from Archaeological Sites (1994). All artefacts recovered were processed in accordance with the CAT Technical Manual 3: Treatment of Finds Immediately After Excavation (1995). 1.11 The archive and artefacts from the evaluation are currently held by CAT at their offices in Kemble. Subject to the agreement of the legal landowner the site archive (including artefacts) will be deposited with Devizes Museum. 2. RESULTS 2.1 A broadly similar stratigraphic sequence was identified throughout the site. The natural geological substrate, comprising Greensand with occasional patches of 5 Land off Witchcombe Lane, Great Cheverell, Devizes, Wiltshire: Archaeological Evaluation © Cotswold Archaeological Trust sandstone, was revealed at an average depth of 0.85m below the present ground surface. This was overlain by mid green-brown clay sand subsoil typically 0.50m in depth, which in turn was sealed by mid brown clay sand topsoil typically 0.35m in thickness. 2.2 Within Trench 1, feature 104 was identified cutting the natural substrate. It was shallow (typically less than 0.05m in depth) and irregular in nature, and no artefactual material was retrieved from associated fill 105. The Finds 2.3 Two residual sherds of Roman pottery were recovered from the topsoil within trench 1. They comprise a rim fragment from a flanged bowl in a coarse greyware fabric and a mortarium base fragment in Oxfordshire red colour-coated ware. Both pieces are datable to the later third or fourth centuries AD. 3. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION 3.1 Despite the archaeological potential of the application area (see archaeological background above), the evaluation has demonstrated that no significant archaeological deposits exist within the development area. Although a cultural origin can not be entirely dismissed for feature 104, its poorly defined profile and its seeming isolation would suggest it is of probable natural origin. 3.2 Interpretation of the depositional history of the moderate accumulation of subsoil throughout the site remains problematic. It remains unclear whether the deposit is of geological origin, possibly resulting from geo-fluvial activity, or is the ploughed out remnants of a medieval ridge and furrow cultivation soil. 6 Land off Witchcombe Lane, Great Cheverell, Devizes, Wiltshire: Archaeological Evaluation © Cotswold Archaeological Trust 4.

  • Swindon Bus Station
    What is this document? We (primarily Lee) have looked at what the bus network might look like under option 24/7 in a pilot area, at the request of Philip Whitehead (meetings March and April 2016) The area selected was from (in the north) the Bath – Corsham – Chippenham – Calne – Royal Wootton Bassett corridor through to the Bath – Bradford-on-Avon – Trowbridge – Westbury – Warminster corridor to the West, covering all of West Wilts, services within that area out to Devizes. There is always considerable overlap across boundaries with public transport services, so you'll find significant services off the edge listed here, many of which are adjustments of ongoing supported services to continue to provide a logical, useful service. The suggestions here reduce the number of vehicle diagrams in the area from 59 to 52 – a saving of around 14%. The number of drivers required would be reduced somewhat less due to extension of some ENCTS time only services to cover journeys to and from work and in the evening and on Sundays and perhaps where appropriate a night bus. In general, very very few places / streets have lost their services, whilst areas such as the Pewsham Estate in Chippenham and Pickwick Road in Corsham see regular buses return, having been withdrawn under the current system. A number of new journey opportunities are provided too (some significant, some making use of much better bus / train connectivity) but there are cases where a change of vehicle will now be needed in place of a through service. Currently commercial services which thrive as “turn up and go” operations remain hardly changed – we are not proposing messing with what works – keeping the good.

  • Great Cheverell Conservation Area Statement Is Part of the Process
    86 High Street GREAT CHEVERELL CONSERVATION AREA STATEMENT October 2003 1 INTRODUCTION The purpose of this Statement is to identify and record those special qualities of Great Cheverell that make up its architectural and historic character. This is important in providing a sound basis for the Local Plan policies and development decisions, as well as for the formulation of proposals for the preservation and enhancement of the character or appearance of the area. The Conservation Area was designated in 1989. This Statement includes a review of the Great Cheverell Conservation Area and is intended for all those with an interest in the village, or undertaking work on the buildings, landscape, roads or public spaces. It is also essential reading for anyone contemplating development within the area. By drawing attention to the distinctive features of Great Cheverell it is intended that its character will be protected and enhanced for the benefit of this and future generations. Rear of Manor House and St Peters parish church LOCATION Great Cheverell is 4.5 miles south of Devizes close to the centre of Wiltshire. It is situated on a secondary road joining the A360 (Devizes - Salisbury road) to the B3098 (Westbury - West Lavington route) east of Erlestoke. BRIEF DESCRIPTION The village lies on a northeast facing hillside with the parish church high on the northern edge. The junction of High Street with Church Road forms the centre of the village. Here a cluster of brick and slate historic buildings includes the village inn, a mansion, orchard and a barn. Large mature trees on a sloping green are significant in the approach to the church, to the grounds of the former rectory and to the manor house beyond.

  • Minutes of Little Cheverell Parish Council Meeting Held Remotely Using
    Minutes of Little Cheverell Parish Council Meeting held remotely using “Zoom Meetings” on Wednesday 13 May 2020. Present: Wes Parfitt, Chair; Sue Ivey, Vice Chair; Benjamin Thompson; Bill Mowatt - minute taker. No members of the public were present. 1. Approval of the minutes of the Council meeting held on 11 March 2020. Minutes approved and signed by the Chair. 2. Apologies Dennis Heather. 3. Public Forum. No issues had been raised with councillors prior to the meeting. 4. Responsible Finance Person Dennis Heather was unable to attend. Chair had been informed that Dennis was unable to continue in the post of Responsible Finance Person for personal reasons but is willing to stay on the Council. It was decided to seek a person to continue the Responsible Finance Person role either in a professional or voluntary role. The possibility of a requirement for a full time Parish Clerk was discounted. 5. Speed Indicator Update The application form was sent to the CATG in March after the last meeting. However presumably, due to the Covid19 lockdown no further progress has been possible on this topic. 6. Damaged Road Sign The damaged road sign has not been re-established and little hope was held for further developments until the Covid crisis has abated due to additional pressures on Wiltshire Council departments. 7. Planning Application 20/02559/OUT Due to the significant majority support (8 for versus 2 against) sent to the Planning Department by the village residents and no objections from the Parish Council members, the Chair had written a letter of support for the application.

    Wiltshire Local Development Framework Working towards a Core Strategy for Wiltshire Topic paper 3: Settlement strategy Appendices Wiltshire Core Strategy Consultation January 2012 Wiltshire Council Information about Wiltshire Council services can be made available on request in other languages including BSL and formats such as large print and audio. Please contact the council on 0300 456 0100, by textphone on 01225 712500 or by email on [email protected]. Appendix A – Role and Function Study of Local Service Centres Planning Policy Statement 12 (PPS12, 2008) recognises that a settlement strategy is key to ensuring sustainable patterns of development are delivered in appropriate locations at an appropriate scale. The Settlement Strategy Topic Paper provides the detailed background explaining how the settlement strategy for Wiltshire has been identified. Categorising the role and function of settlements is an important first step that will help to understand appropriate levels of growth that should be planned for within settlements. The 2011 Settlement Strategy seeks to provide a framework within which the ambitions of Wiltshire‟s rural communities can be realised. As part of this framework a number of settlements, which are considered to have a pronounced role in the rural area and in most cases act as local services centres serving the wider rural hinterland are identified. There were 5 settlements that have been identified as potentially having a service centre role. These settlements are; Cricklade, Lyneham, Market Lavington, Pewsey & Purton. In very general terms a Local Service Centre will have some or all of the following characteristics. Large population (over 2,000) Significant employment base; A very good range of services; A secondary school; Excellent transport connections; Potential to support development in the rural area; The largest settlement within the community.
