SEAGRY NEIGHBOURHOOD PLAN HISTORIC EVIDENCE The key source for the information in this report was the Wiltshire and Swindon Historic Environment Record. Specific information for Seagry Parish was supplied about: • Events • Monuments • Listed Buildings • Historic Landscape Characterisation That information follows overleaf. There are no obvious items in the information that necessitate a specific policy in the Seagry Neighbourhood Plan, although the Landscape section of the plan and the associated Design Statement both make reference to historic landscape issues. The Neighbourhood Plan does not allocate any development sites. None of those submitted during the Call for Sites includes a feature covered in the historic information, although some features may be nearby. The plan includes a policy on infill development. Any planning applications for infill development would, as a matter of standard practice, be required to note, and provide any necessary mitigation in relation to, on site or adjacent features or any affected by views to or from historic features.
