The objective of the assessment was to identify the nature and extent of the recorded heritage resource both within the site and its immediate environs. A solar farm is proposed for the site. The desk-based assessment has not identified any evidence to indicate that the proposed development site was a focus for prehistoric or Roman activity. The area was most likely marshland prior to enclosure in the medieval/post-medieval periods. Any remains of buildings associated with the historic Goldborough Farmhouse, recorded within the proposed development site on 18th and 19th-century cartographic sources, and drainage channels visible on 1940s aerial photographs, are considered to be of limited heritage significance. Slight extant ridge and furrow earthworks, most likely of post-medieval origin, are also considered to be of limited heritage significance. Current design plans show that areas of former buildings will not be impacted by the proposed development. Hedgerows within the proposed development are considered to have statutory protection under the Hedgerow Regulations 1997 (criteria for archaeology and history, reproduced in full in Appendix B) as they are depicted on a source which pre-dates the Enclosure Act for the parish. These hedgerows are considered to be of local heritage significance. Hedgerows will be retained within the proposed development. The proposed development will not adversely impact designated heritage assets in the vicinity. Specifically, it will not adversely impact the Grade II Listed buildings at Wootton Fields Farm, Lower Ham Farmhouse or at Cotmarsh, or Bincknoll Camp Scheduled Monument. 1 © Cotswold Archaeology Land at Goldborough, Broad Town, Wiltshire: Heritage Desk-Based Assessment 1. INTRODUCTION Outline 1.1 In August 2013 Cotswold Archaeology was commissioned by Good Energy Generation to carry out a Heritage Desk-Based Assessment of land at Goldborough, Broad Town, Wiltshire (centred on NGR SU 0841 8037, Fig. 1). A solar farm is proposed for the site. Location and landscape context 1.2 The proposed development site is approximately 22.6ha in area and is located c. 1.5km south of Wootton Bassett. The proposed development site is bounded to the west by residential properties (Goldborough Cottages) and Broadtown Lane, and to the north, east and south by agricultural fields. The proposed development site is situated across agricultural fields, pasture at the time of the site visit. Boundaries are predominantly hedgerow. A small block of woodland is located within the southern area of the proposed development site. Objectives, scope and consultation 1.3 The assessment focuses upon the cultural heritage resource of the site itself, although the heritage resource of a minimum 1km ‘buffer’ around the site has also been assessed in detail, referred to as the ‘study area’ (Fig. 2). 1.4 The main objectives of the assessment were: • to identify and gather information on designated heritage assets within the site and study area; • to identify and gather information on non-designated heritage assets within the site and the study area; • to assess the above baseline information and offer an analysis of the potential for currently unrecorded heritage assets within the site; and • to provide an assessment of the potential impact of the proposed development upon the significance of Grade II Listed buildings within the study area, and upon Bincknoll Camp c. 2.2km south-east of the proposed development site. 2 © Cotswold Archaeology Land at Goldborough, Broad Town, Wiltshire: Heritage Desk-Based Assessment 2. METHODOLOGY 2.1 The methodology employed during this assessment was based upon key professional guidance including the ‘Standard and Guidance for Historic Environment Desk-Based Assessment’ (Institute for Archaeologists 2012); The Setting of Heritage Assets: English Heritage Guidance (2011); and the English Heritage ‘Conservation Principles’ (2008). 2.2 A study area was defined (as described in paragraph 1.4 above) in order to better contextualise the identified heritage resource by enabling examination of its wider landscape setting. The baseline data is discussed in Section 4 and a gazetteer of all known and potential heritage assets is provided in Appendix A. All heritage assets have been attributed a unique reference number and their locations are recorded on Fig. 2. 2.3 The baseline survey involved

Page 29 1. Introduction The White Horse Trail is a c90 mile circular way-marked long distance walking trail. It was originally created in 2000 by Wiltshire Ramblers with assistance from Wiltshire Council. The route passes through Pewsey, Marlborough, Broad Town, Cherhill, Devizes, Steeple Ashton and Bratton providing views of eight white horses which are cut into the turf of the chalk hillsides of Wiltshire. The walk runs through some beautiful Wiltshire countryside and also visits fascinating historical sites such as Avebury Stones and Silbury Hill. Other highlights include the Landsdowne Monument near the Cherhill White Horse and there is a long waterside section along the Kennet and Avon Canal through Devizes. The Trail nominally starts at the Westbury White Horse, although the route can be picked up at any point. Guides are available to walk the trail in either a clockwise or anti-clockwise direction. This survey was carried out on the Broad Town section as if walking the route in the clockwise direction. 2 2. The route through Broad Town Travelling the route clockwise, the White Horse Trail enters the parish of Broad Town from Clyffe Pypard. Clyffe Pypard path number CPYP11, joins BTOW8, a bridleway, at grid ref. SU084773. This joins the public road at the top of Thornhill and uses Pye Lane, crosses the B4041 then Chapel Lane turning right at the end of Chapel Lane and continuing up Horns Lane.

It was a very popular destination for people from Clyffe Pypard and its surrounding villages. I know that many of us have hoped that it would re-open. In May the current owner informed Wiltshire Council that she wished to sell the pub. A community group now has until November to raise the funds and negotiate to buy it. If a community group fails to buy the pub by November, then the owner can put the pub on the open market. A group of over thirty people interested in saving the pub met in the village hall in June. A steering committee of local volunteers has been set up to find out what kind of pub the people want and how we can achieve it. The committee are starting the process of raising funds to hopefully purchase, refurbish and re-open the pub for the community. They will need your help. Part of this process is issuing a questionnaire to the local people to find out what they want, and to build the support we need to make this happen. This questionnaire will be delivered to you the week beginning July 15th, please feel free to copy the questionnaire as many times as you need, and share it with anyone who you think may be interested.
