EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

This archaeological desk-based assessment of land off Uffington Road, Stamford has been prepared by RPS on behalf of Lambert Smith Hampton. The site is located on the eastern edge of the town of Stamford and comprises approximately 4.87 hectares of industrial estate. The site is proposed for mixed-use re- development. This assessment has been prepared with regard to Government’s National Planning Policy Framework, to identify and provide a description of the significance of heritage assets within the site and the likely effects of the planned development. This study concentrates on identifying any archaeological interest in the site and assessing the potential impact of development on the archaeological significance of any identified assets. The assessment is based on an examination of evidence in the Lincolnshire Historic Environment Record (HER), Historic England’s National Heritage List for England, historic maps, and online resources. The assessment has confirmed that there are no scheduled monuments or other designated heritage assets within the site. Development within the site will not affect the significance of any designated heritage asset in the surrounding area. The data provided by the HER contains a circular polygon within the south-west part of the site, which indicates the approximate location and potential extent of an early Saxon cemetery. The cemetery is inferred from the discovery of a Saxon burial during the construction of the railway on the western boundary of the site in the 1860s. As is common with records of Victorian discoveries, it is difficult to locate accurately and difficult to assess its significance. Saxon burials are more commonly found within cemeteries, but those cemeteries vary significantly in size. It has been assumed in preparing this assessment that the cemetery originally extended within the site, broadly as mapped. Making an assessment of the significance of the conjectured remains is complicated by the fact that their state of preservation is unclear. The extent of the modern development suggests that at best there are likely to be only islands of survival, but the original recorded depth of the burial at 4ft does suggest that burials could survive outside of deep intrusions. This assessment has also considered the potential for other, as-yet undiscovered, archaeological assets within the site. Historic maps demonstrate that the site was undeveloped open ground to the east of Stamford’s built area in the early 19th century, and this is likely to reflect the land use from at least the Medieval period onwards. The site remained undeveloped until the 1970s, when the existing industrial estate was built. Based on the HER dataset for the surrounding search area, the historic maps, and the existing development on the site, the site is considered to have a low potential for significant additional archaeological assets. The heritage interest in the site can be safe-guarded through an appropriately worded condition attached to any planning permission granted. In practice demolition should be permitted to slab level, to be followed by archaeological monitoring of removal of hard-surfacing to reveal the archaeological horizon. Targeted archaeological investigation comprising test- pits and trenches are then likely to be required to establish the presence/absence of further burials or other significant remains. Provision should be made for further archaeological mitigation measures to follow this work and for subsequent off-site analysis, recording and reporting leading to publication as appropriate.

1 INTRODUCTION AND SCOPE OF STUDY

1.1 This archaeological desk-based assessment of land off Uffington Road, Stamford has been prepared by RPS on behalf of Lambert Smith Hampton. 1.2 The site, also referred to in this report as ‘the study site’, is located on the eastern edge of the town of Stamford and comprises approximately 4.87 hectares of land centred at TF 041 077 (Figure 1). The site currently forms an industrial estate. It is bounded by Uffington Road to the south, the Stamford Retail Park and buildings on Ryhall Road to the west, open ground to the north, and by further parts of the industrial estate & the River Gwash to the east. 1.3 This assessment has been prepared with regard to Government’s National Planning Policy Framework, to identify and provide a description of the significance of heritage assets within the site and the likely effects of future development. This study concentrates on identifying any archaeological interest in the site and assessing the potential impact of development on the archaeological significance of any identified assets. 1.4 The assessment comprises an examination of evidence in the Lincolnshire Historic Environment Record (HER), and online resources. Information regarding Scheduled Monuments, Registered Parks and Gardens, Registered Battlefields and Listed Buildings was obtained from Historic England’s National Heritage List for England and the HER. Information on Conservation Areas was sought from South Kesteven District Council. 1.5 The assessment incorporates published and unpublished material and charts historic land-use through a map regression exercise. 1.6 As a result, the assessment enables relevant parties to assess the significance of archaeological assets on the site and the potential for previously undiscovered archaeological evidence, thus enabling potential impacts on the significance of any assets to be identified along with the need for design, engineering or archaeological mitigation.

2 PLANNING BACKGROUND AND DEVELOPMENT PLAN FRAMEWORK

2.1 National legislation regarding archaeology, including scheduled monuments, is contained in the Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Areas Act 1979, amended by the National Heritage Act 1983 and 2002, and updated in April 2014. 2.2 In March 2012, the government published the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF), and it was last updated in February 2019. The NPPF is supported by the National Planning Practice Guidance (NPPG), which was published online 6th March 2014, with the guidance on Conserving and Enhancing the Historic Environment last updated 23 July 2019. (https://www.gov.uk/guidance/conserving-and-enhancing-the-historic-environment). 2.3 The NPPF and NPPG are additionally supported by three Good Practice Advice (GPA) documents published by Historic England: GPA 1: The Historic Environment in Local Plans; GPA 2: Managing Significance in Decision-Taking in the Historic Environment (both published March 2015). The second edition of GPA3: The Setting of Heritage Assets was published in December 2017. National Planning Policy

2.4 Section 16 of the NPPF, entitled Conserving and enhancing the historic environment provides guidance for planning authorities, property owners, developers and others on the conservation and investigation of heritage assets. Overall, the objectives of Section 16 of the NPPF can be summarised as seeking the: • Delivery of sustainable development; • Understanding the wider social, cultural, economic and environmental benefits brought by the conservation of the historic environment; • Conservation of England's heritage assets in a manner appropriate to their significance; and • Recognition that heritage makes to our knowledge and understanding of the past. 2.5 Section 16 of the NPPF recognises that intelligently managed change may sometimes be necessary if heritage assets are to be maintained for the long term. Paragraph 189 states that planning decisions should be based on the significance of the heritage asset and that level of detail supplied by an applicant should be proportionate to the importance of the asset and should be no more than sufficient to review the potential impact of the proposal upon the significance of that asset. 2.6 Heritage Assets are defined in Annex 2 of the NPPF as: a building, monument, site, place, area or landscape positively identified as having a degree of significance meriting consideration in planning decisions. They include designated heritage assets (as defined in the NPPF) and assets identified by the local planning authority during the process of decision-making or through the plan-making process. 2.7 Annex 2 also defines Archaeological Interest as a heritage asset which holds or potentially could hold evidence of past human activity worthy of expert investigation at some point. 2.8 A Nationally Important Designated Heritage Asset comprises a: World Heritage Site, Scheduled Monument, Listed Building, Protected Wreck Site, Registered Park and Garden, Registered Battlefield or Conservation Area. 2.9 Significance is defined as: The value of a heritage asset to this and future generations because of its heritage interest. This interest may be archaeological, architectural, artistic or historic. Significance derives not only from a heritage asset’s physical presence, but also from its setting.

26339 | Uffington Road, Stamford | 1.1 | April 2020 rpsgroup.com Page 2 UFFINGTON ROAD, STAMFORD, LINCOLNSHIRE. ARCHAEOLOGICAL DESK-BASED ASSESSMENT

2.10 Setting is defined as: The surroundings in which a heritage asset is experienced. Its extent is not fixed and may change as the asset and its surroundings evolve. Elements of a setting may make a positive or negative contribution to the significance of an asset, may affect the ability to appreciate that significance or may be neutral. 2.11 In short, government policy provides a framework which: • Protects nationally important designated Heritage Assets; • Protects the settings of such designations; • In appropriate circumstances seeks adequate information (from desk based assessment and field evaluation where necessary) to enable informed decisions; • Provides for the excavation and investigation of sites not significant enough to merit in-situ preservation. 2.12 The NPPG reiterates that the conservation of heritage assets in a manner appropriate to their significance is a core planning principle, requiring a flexible and thoughtful approach. Furthermore, it highlights that neglect and decay of heritage assets is best addressed through ensuring they remain in active use that is consistent with their conservation. Importantly, the guidance states that if complete, or partial loss of a heritage asset is justified, the aim should then be to capture and record the evidence of the asset’s significance and make the interpretation publicly available. Key elements of the guidance relate to assessing harm. An important consideration should be whether the proposed works adversely affect a key element of the heritage asset’s special architectural or historic interest. Additionally, it is the degree of harm, rather than the scale of development, that is to be assessed. The level of ‘substantial harm’ is considered to be a high bar that may not arise in many cases. Essentially, whether a proposal causes substantial harm will be a judgment for the decision taker, having regard to the circumstances of the case and the NPPF. Importantly, harm may arise from works to the asset or from development within its setting. Setting is defined as the surroundings in which an asset is experienced and may be more extensive than the curtilage. A thorough assessment of the impact of proposals upon setting needs to take into account, and be proportionate to, the significance of the heritage asset and the degree to which proposed changes enhance or detract from that significance and the ability to appreciate it. 2.13 In considering any planning application for development, the planning authority will be mindful of the framework set by government policy, in this instance the NPPF, by current Development Plan Policy and by other material considerations. Local Planning Policy

2.14 The current development plan for South Kesteven district is provided by the policies of the South Kesteven District Council Local Plan 2011 -2036 (adopted January 2020). Within the Local Plan, consideration of heritage assets is provided in Policy EN6 The Historic Environment: EN6: The Historic Environment The Council will seek to protect and enhance heritage assets and their settings in keeping with the policies in the National Planning Policy Framework. Development that is likely to cause harm to the significance of a heritage asset or its setting will only be granted permission where the public benefits of the proposal outweigh the potential harm. Proposals which would conserve or enhance the significance of the asset shall be considered favourably. Substantial harm or total loss will be resisted. Proposals will be expected to take Conservation Area Appraisals into account, where these have been adopted by the Council.

Where development affecting archaeological sites is acceptable in principle, the Council will seek to ensure mitigation of impact through preservation of the remains in situ as a preferred solution. When in situ preservation is not practical, the developer will be required to make adequate provision for excavation and recording before or during development. 2.15 In line with national planning policy guidance and Local Plan policy, this desk-based assessment seeks to clarify the site’s archaeological potential and the likely significance of that potential and the need or otherwise for additional mitigation measures.

3 GEOLOGY AND TOPOGRAPHY Geology

3.1 The British Geological Survey (BGS) 1:50,000 records the surface solid geology of the study site as limestone belonging to the Lower Lincolnshire Limestone Member. 3.2 There are no superficial deposits recorded over the solid geology for majority of the study site, although deposits of 1st Terrace sand and gravel have formed on the eastern margin of the site, and the northern quarter of the site is mapped as containing alluvial deposits along the River Gwash. Topography

3.3 The study site is located on level ground to the north of the River Welland, on the eastern edge of Stamford. 3.4 The site lies between the River Welland and its tributary, the River Gwash. The Welland flows west to east around 150m south of study site; the Gwash runs roughly north to south passing around 50m east of the study site’s eastern boundary. The confluence of the two rivers lies approximately 700m south-east of the study site. 3.5 The site is currently occupied by areas of hardstanding and brick buildings forming an industrial estate, with scrubby overgrown areas around its margins.

Introduction

4.1 This chapter reviews the available archaeological evidence for the study site and the archaeological/historical background of the general area, and - in accordance with NPPF - considers the potential for any as yet to be discovered archaeological evidence on the study site. 4.2 This chapter provides a summary of known assets within the study site and a review of recorded archaeological information within a 1km radius of the study site, also referred to as the search area, based on information held on the Lincolnshire Historic Environment Record (HER) and the National Heritage List for England (Figures 2-4), together with a historic map regression exercise charting the development of the study area from the 19th century onwards until the present day (Figures 5- 11). Information from this search area is used to predict the study site’s potential for additional archaeological assets. 4.3 Chapter 5 subsequently considers the site conditions and whether the proposed development will impact the theoretical archaeological potential identified below.

Designated Heritage Assets

4.4 Data obtained from Historic England and the Local Planning Authority confirms that there are no Designated Heritage Assets (World Heritage Sites, Listed Buildings, Scheduled Monuments, Conservation Areas, Registered Battlefields or Parks and Gardens) within the study site (Figure 2). 4.5 The closest Scheduled Monument is the Ruins and site of St Leonard’s Priory (NHLE entry 1007690), which is situated 250m southwest of the study site, on the south side of Uffington Road. The ruins of the priory are also designated as a Grade I Listed Building (NHLE 1062210). The Priory is separated from the study site by existing modern built development along both sides of Uffington

26339 | Uffington Road, Stamford | 1.1 | April 2020 rpsgroup.com Page 6 UFFINGTON ROAD, STAMFORD, LINCOLNSHIRE. ARCHAEOLOGICAL DESK-BASED ASSESSMENT

Road, and the dense vegetation along the former railway line on the western boundary of the study site. There is no inter-visibility between the site and the scheduled monument; the study site is seen as part of the modern built development along Uffington Road and makes no positive contribution to the setting of the scheduled monument. 4.6 Further west within the search area, around 800m west of the study site within the modern built area of Stamford, lie a series of designated heritage assets relating to Stamford’s Medieval religious houses: the scheduled Greyfriars Priory (site of) (NHLE 1004973), the scheduled Whitefriars Gate (NHLE 1005006), and the scheduled Site of Brazenose College (NHLE 1004972 & Brasenose Gate (NHLE 1005008). 4.7 Just outside the eastern edge of the search area, around 1.1km from the study site, lies the scheduled Neolithic Causewayed Camp at Uffington (NHLE 1004938). 4.8 The Greyfriars Priory, and Brazenose College scheduled monuments lie within the Stamford Conservation Area, which extends eastwards as far as the junction of Ryhall Road and Uffington Road. There are numerous listed buildings within the Conservation Area. The Conservation Area, listed buildings and scheduled monuments within it are not inter-visible with the study site. 4.9 The Grade II* Registered Parkland of Burghley House (NHLE 1000359) is located to the south of the study site, on the south side of the River Welland. within the north-eastern and eastern extent of the search area, c.550m away from the site. The parkland is not inter-visible with the site. 4.10 None of the designated heritage assets were assessed as sensitive to development within the study site. No further consideration is given to designated heritage assets within this report. Non-Designated Heritage Assets and other archaeological monuments

4.11 The data provided by the HER records one non-designated heritage asset within the study site: an Anglo-Saxon burial (HER ref 30676) discovered in the mid 19th century during excavation of a cutting for the Stamford to Essendine Railway. The burial was described as being found “at a depth of 4 feet near the Uffington Road”. Later 19th century OS maps show the railway cutting forming the western boundary of the site. 4.12 This burial is anticipated to have formed part of an early Saxon cemetery rather than an individual isolated burial, and the asset is discussed on this basis throughout this report. 4.13 The HER data for the surrounding search area provides details of archaeological sites and finds dating from the Mesolithic to the Modern periods. The dataset is heavily weighted towards Medieval, Post-Medieval and Modern sites within the historic core of Stamford (on the western edge of the search area) but includes sufficient records for earlier periods and for areas outside modern Stamford to allow characterisation of the area’s earlier archaeology. 4.14 The HER data is reviewed and discussed on a period-by-period basis below to provide an assessment of the study site’s potential for the presence of additional (as-yet undiscovered) archaeological assets. 4.15 A gazetteer of HER records is included in Appendix A. Their locations are shown on Figures 3-5.

Previous Archaeological Work

4.16 There are no records of previous specific archaeological investigations within the study site, although – as outlined above - archaeological finds were recovered during railway construction work immediately adjacent to the site in the mid 19th Century.

26339 | Uffington Road, Stamford | 1.1 | April 2020 rpsgroup.com Page 7 UFFINGTON ROAD, STAMFORD, LINCOLNSHIRE. ARCHAEOLOGICAL DESK-BASED ASSESSMENT

4.17 Twentieth & twenty-first century archaeological investigations recorded within the search area relate largely to work undertaken in association with individual development proposals, including multiple small-scale works within the core of Stamford. 4.18 A programme of archaeological trial investigation was undertaken in advance of proposed development at the Gwash Valley Business Park, immediately to the north-east of the study site: Geophysical survey in 2006 (ELI 12939) was followed by a programme of trial trenching in 2007 (ELI7743). These investigations identified a number of linear features which were thought to represent the remains of former drainage ditches and possible flood defences on the eastern side of the River Gwash. Small quantities of Roman pottery were recovered from the fills of several of the ditches, indicating a Romano-British date for this activity. 4.19 Later small-scale trial trenching to inform works to the River Gwash immediately east of the study site in 2015 (ELI12543) recovered a further single sherd of Roman pottery, but no archaeological features or deposits were encountered. 4.20 Archaeological trial investigations (geophysical survey – ELI8693, and trial trenching – ELI8694) were undertaken in advance of development at New College, 500m west of the study site in 2008. No significant archaeological features or finds were identified. 4.21 A programme of archaeological fieldwalking (ELI509) was carried out in 1991 in advance of a proposed golf course development on a large site at eastern edge of search area . This recovered numerous finds including Prehistoric flint and pottery of Roman to Post-Medieval dates. Subsequent trial trenching of the proposed development (ELI251) recovered a range of archaeological features believed to be from Mesolithic to possible Saxon in date. 4.22 Programmes of geophysical survey in 2001 (ELI2566) and archaeological trial trenching (ELI10511) are recorded in advance of development on Barnack Road, around 400m south of the study site, on the south side of the River Welland. The geophysical survey identified possible evidence for Bronze Age round barrow. The trial trenching produced evidence for Iron Age activity, Roman industrial activity and Medieval agricultural evidence. 4.23 The locations of recorded archaeological investigations within the search area are shown in Figure 3, a gazetteer of archaeological ‘events’ is included in Appendix A. Mesolithic – Bronze Age

4.24 The earliest evidence for Prehistoric activity within the search area takes the form of a concentration of Mesolithic and Neolithic flints (HER refs 35077, 35078) recovered as surface scatters of finds from fieldwalking (ELI509) on the Uffington Estate Golf Course development site 900m east of the study site. Subsequent trial trenching (ELI1251) identified spreads of charcoal and large patches of fire-reddened clay which the excavators interpreted as Mesolithic hearths. 4.25 The HER records a probable Neoltihic Causewayed Enclosure (HER 30050) on the valley slope overlooking the River Gwash and River Welland, around 1.1km east of the study site. 4.26 Later, Bronze Age, worked flints (HER 35079) were found as part of the fieldwalking at the Uffington Estate golf course site 900m to the east of the study site. Further Bronze Age flint finds were encountered in trial works at Barnack Road 400m south of the study site (HER 39047). Structural evidence, in the form of possible funerary ring ditches/round barrows of Bronze Age date, has also been identified on the Barnack Road site (HER 35446). Further possible Bronze Age activity was identified in the centre of Stamford from small-scale archaeological works on Wharf Road (HER 36514). 4.27 Taken overall, the existing HER evidence from the search area suggests some utilisation and exploitation of the river valley floor landscape from the Mesolithic period onwards, and with the area around the river confluence becoming a possible focus for ceremonial activity in the Neolithic period

26339 | Uffington Road, Stamford | 1.1 | April 2020 rpsgroup.com Page 8 UFFINGTON ROAD, STAMFORD, LINCOLNSHIRE. ARCHAEOLOGICAL DESK-BASED ASSESSMENT

evidenced by the construction the causewayed enclosure, and later Bronze Age activity and probable burial sites. 4.28 The study site is considered likely to have had a moderate potential for the presence of further similar scatters of finds, particularly of Bronze Age material, although this potential is likely to have been significantly reduced by development of the study site in the late 20th Century. The study site is now assessed as having a low potential for the presence of significant archaeological remains of Bronze Age or earlier date. Iron Age - Roman

4.29 Evidence for Iron Age activity in the local area is more obvious, with sites of probable Iron Age settlement or farming enclosures identified from aerial photography at Barnack Road (HER ref 36471 – 400m south of the study site), and on Uffington Road south of Newstead (HER 36693- 600m east of the study site); and also confirmed through archaeological trial works on the Barnack Road site (HER 39044). Parts of larger landscape-scale pit-alignment boundaries of probable Iron Age date are recorded running down the valley sides south of the River Welland (HER 36472 – 550m south-east of the study site) and north of the river (HER 36124 – 800m east of the study site). A further un-related section of pit-alignment is recorded 900m north-west of the study site at Kesteven Road School (HER 34256). 4.30 Evidence for Roman activity is recorded directly north-east of the study site on the opposite side of the River Gwash (HER 36827). The majority of these features were thought to represent the remains of former drainage ditches, moving water into the adjacent River Gwash. A small assemblage of pottery was recovered from the fills of several of the ditches, with all but one fragment being from a variety of 2nd to 4th century vessels. Fragments of Romano-British ceramic building material were also recovered, including possible roof and hypocaust tile, suggesting the presence of a Roman building somewhere in the vicinity. However analysis of environmental samples taken from the ditch fills recorded a very low density of charred plant remains and grains, suggesting the site was well away from any centre of habitation or arable cultivation. 4.31 Other evidence for Roman activity in the search area is present in an occupation site with possible evidence for a building 900m west of the study site (HER 30685), and in Roman iron production evidence recorded on the Barnack Road site 500m south of the study site (HER 39045); the HER also records the discovery of ‘a number of Roman coins’ from a garden around 400m west of the study site (HER 30692). 4.32 The HER data for the search area indicates increased utilisation and shaping of the local landscape in the Iron Age and Roman periods, with evidence for individual settlements (likely to represent small farmsteads) set within a agricultural landscape of enclosures and larger scale land divisions. 4.33 The study site is considered likely to have had a moderate potential for the presence of further evidence of Iron Age or Roman activity. Although evidence for Roman period activity is recorded directly north-east of the study site (HER 36827), as this lies on the opposite bank of the River Gwash it is unlikely that additional directly-associated remains would have been present within the study site. Potentially, the adjacent parts of the study site could contain other equivalent similar Roman drainage ditches. 4.34 The study site’s potential for surviving Iron Age or Roman archaeology has also been reduced by the effects of development within the study site in the late 20th Century. The study site is assessed as having a low potential for the presence of significant archaeological remains of Iron Age or Roman date.

Anglo-Saxon/Early Medieval

4.35 As outlined above, railway construction directly west of the study site in the 1860s discovered evidence for an early Saxon cemetery (HER 30676) immediately adjacent to – and presumably extending into - the study site. Finds recovered from the railway cutting included one cremation urn, along with a spear, other pottery fragments and skull and bone fragments. The full extent of this Saxon cemetery is unknown, but it is reasonable to assume that further remains lay within the study site boundary. 4.36 By the end of the 10th century, Stamford was an urban centre of commercial, military and political importance. The HER dataset included a series of records relating to Saxon iron-smelting on the south-east side of the town (HER 34882, 38906, 38902). The study is however thought located well outside the Late Saxon urban area, within its agricultural hinterland. 4.37 To the south-west of the study site, the priory of St Leonard (a cell of the Benedictine cathedral monastery of Durham) had been established possibly by the end of the 12th century. The Norman priory was built on the supposed site of an earlier Saxon monastery dating back to the 7th Century (HER 301612) – although evidence to confirm this earlier Saxon monastery is described as “extremely tenuous”. 4.38 The study site is considered to have had a high potential for the presence of further Saxon burials associated with those discovered in the 1860s. This potential is likely to have been affected by development within the study site in the late 20th Century, but the study site is assessed as retaining a moderate potential for the presence of significant archaeological remains of early Saxon date. The site’s potential for later Saxon remains is considered to be low. Medieval

4.39 The study lies around 600m outside the outer limits of Medieval urban settlement in Stamford. 4.40 A series of Medieval religious houses are located outside the eastern edge of Medieval Stamford, including the Benedictine priory of St Leonard (HER 30611 – 300m south-west of the study site) founded in the 12th century, a 13th century Carmelite (Whitefriars) friary (HER 30613 – 250m west of the study site), and Stamford’s Franciscan (Greyfriars) friary (HER 30621 – 550m west of the study site). 4.41 A further Medieval priory, dedicated to St Mary (HER 33538), was located 500m east of the study site at Newstead, within Uffington parish. The Priory of Newstead was originally founded in the late 12th century as a hospital before becoming a house of Augustinian canons in the 13th century. The priory was located next to the River Gwash about halfway between Stamford and Uffington 4.42 The study site lies well outside the precincts of all of these religious houses, and is anticipated to have formed agricultural or valley-floor grazing land throughout the Medieval period. 4.43 The site is assessed as having a low potential for significant Medieval archaeological assets. Post Medieval & Modern (including map regression exercise)

4.44 The HER dataset includes a substantial number of records relating to extant structures within the historic core of Stamford and to finds of archaeological artefacts from sites within the town. Other than confirming the continued presence and importance of Stamford through the Post-Medieval period, these have no relevance to the assessment of the study site; These HER records are included in Figure 4 but are not individually labelled.

4.45 The study site is likely to have remained undeveloped agricultural or grazing land throughout the Post-Medieval period, but its history can be traced with greater reliability through the 19th and 20th Centuries through review of historic mapping. 4.46 The earliest map which shows the study site in any real detail is the 1814 Ordnance Surveyors’ Drawing (Figure 5). This shows the site as open ground lying some distance outside Stamford, on the north side of the road (Uffington Road) which runs east from Stamford to cross the River Gwash at Newstead. The map shows the River Gwash passing directly past the north-east edge of the site, with a minor watercourse (presumably a cut off former channel of the river) looping through the northern part of the study site. 4.47 The subsequent 1886 first edition of the Ordnance Survey ‘County’ series of 6” maps (Figure 6) shows the study site itself in similar undeveloped state, but with the cutting of the Stamford and Essendine railway (constructed in the 1860s) now forming its western boundary. Construction of the railway had also isolated the former watercourse in the northern part of the site. East of the railway line the 1886 map shows the growth of industrial development on the north side of Uffington Road in form of the lime kilns and buildings of the “Stamford Limeworks”. 4.48 The second edition of the county series map, published fifteen years later in 1901 (Figure 7) shows no change within the study site, though east of the railway the Stamford Limeworks are shown in an enlarged (and partly quarried) site, with the buildings of the ‘Rutland Works’ shown to their north off Bourn Road. 4.49 By the 1930s (1932 map shown in Figure 8), the industrial development west of the study site had become more extensive, with substantial built development at the ‘Rutland Engineering Works’ to the west of the study site and continued westward expansion of the Stamford Limeworks to their south (simply labelled as “Lime Wks” on the map). The 1932 map shows further new development to the south of the study site, with the creation of a Sewage Works and filter beds on the north bank of the River Welland and further (unlabelled) built development in the parcel south of the Uffington Road opposite the study site. In contrast to this increasing industrialisation of the land to the west and south, the study site is shown remaining as undeveloped open land. 4.50 The 1951 map (Figure 9) presents a very similar picture, albeit with some limited new development within the study site, in the form of an overhead electricity line with two pylons or poles mapped within the south-east and central-east parts of the site. 4.51 Significant changes to the study site and immediately surrounding area are shown on the 1975 OS large scale map (Figure 10). By the time this map was published, the Stamford and Essendine railway had been closed and dismantled, and its former line immediately north and south of Uffington Road is shown on the map as ‘dismantled’, further north the railway route had been re-purposed to form access roads within the Rutland Engineering Works. More significantly, the southern half of the study site itself is shown as heavily developed, with a ‘Transport Depot’ occupying the area adjacent to Uffington Road, and a ‘Ready-Mixed Concrete Depot’ to its north. Further industrial development (a ‘Wool Warehouse’) are shown to the east of the study site. The northern half of the study site continues to be shown without new built development, although a new boundary is shown marking the northern edge of the depot and the eastern side of the Engineering Works. 4.52 The later 2000 aerial image (Figure 11) shows additional industrial buildings in the centre of the study site, to the north of the 1970s industrial estate, and shows the northern half of the study in use for materials storage. 4.53 In summary the study site formed open, undeveloped land from at least the early 19th century through to the 1970s, when it was extensively developed as industrial estate. 4.54 The site’s potential for the presence of significant Post-Medieval or Modern period archaeological assets is minimal. The development of the site in the 1970s is also anticipated to have had an adverse impact on the survival of any earlier buried archaeological assets that may have previously present.

Assessment of Significance (Non-Designated Assets)

4.55 Paragraph 189 of the NPPF outlines the requirements for an applicant to describe the significance of heritage assets affected by the proposed development, and states that the level of detail supplied by an applicant should be proportionate to the importance of the asset and should be no more than sufficient to review the potential impact of the proposal upon the significance of that asset. 4.56 There is one non-designated heritage asset identified within the study site: an early Saxon cemetery (HER 30676), inferred from finds recovered during construction of a railway cutting immediately adjacent to the site. 4.57 The original extent of the cemetery is unknown, and Saxon cemeteries are known to vary significantly in size. It is clear however that any parts within the area of the railway were destroyed during construction of the railway cutting in the 1860s; any remains west of the railway are also likely to have been destroyed through development and quarrying within the Stamford Limeworks site from the late 19th Century onwards. The extent of the cemetery east of the railway line, within the study site, is unclear. However development of the study site in the 1970s, particularly in the southern part of the site, is likely to have affected survival of buried archaeological remains. The extent of the modern development suggests that at best there are likely to be only islands of survival, although the original recorded depth of the burial at “4ft” does suggest that burials could survive outside of deep intrusions 4.58 Around 1000 Saxon inhumation cemeteries have been recorded in England. They represent one of our principal sources of archaeological evidence about the Early Anglo-Saxon period, providing information on population, social structure and ideology. Any surviving evidence for the Saxon cemetery within the study site would have archaeological interest but is not considered to be of national importance because of the reduced level of survival of the cemetery overall. 4.59 With regard to the study site’s potential for other, as-yet undiscovered, buried archaeological assets, based on the HER dataset for the surrounding search area and the previous development of the study site itself, the site is considered to have a low potential for significant additional archaeological assets. Any surviving remains are likely to be of local interest and would be significant for their archaeological interest and potential to contribute to regional research agendas.

5 THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT & REVIEW OF POTENTIAL DEVELOPMENT IMPACTS ON ARCHAEOLOGICAL ASSETS Proposed Development

5.1 The proposed development will see demolition and removal of the existing industrial estate buildings within the site, and construction of a mixed-use development including a housing, a care home, and a retail unit. 5.2 The retail, supermarket, element is proposed for the southern part of the study site, with associated surface car parking occupying the frontage onto Uffington Raod. The proposed care home is located to the northwest of the supermarket, with elements are located in the centre and northern parts of the site. 5.3 The new development will be accessed from Uffington Road via a new spine road which will enter the site at the south-west corner. Review of Potential Development Impacts on Non- Designated Assets

5.4 The data provided by the HER identifies one non-designated heritage asset within the study site: the site of a possible Saxon cemetery (HER 30676), located in the south-west part of the study site. This is based on finds made during construction of the adjacent railway cutting in the middle of the 19th Century; the study site has subsequently been developed with concrete hardstanding and brick buildings occupying this southern part of the site. This previous development is anticipated to have had an impact on survival of buried archaeology within the site. 5.5 The assessment above has established that the study retains a low potential for the presence of other significant archaeological assets. 5.6 Potential development impacts in this south-west part of the study site (i.e. the area of greatest potential archaeological interest) relate to construction of the new access road, and formation of the new surface car park on the road frontage. 5.7 If further evidence for a Saxon cemetery survives in this part of the site, construction of the new road and excavation for any new services positioned under the road have the potential to remove the archaeological remains. Construction of the surface car park is likely to have little impact given the previous development in this area. 5.8 Elsewhere within the site the constructional techniques employed in modern development are such that it is unlikely that any buried archaeological remains still present on the study site would survive the development process. 5.9 Any development impact can be appropriately mitigated and the heritage significance of any archaeological assets within the site can be safeguarded through a targeted programme of archaeological investigation undertaken during the early stages of development. Such a programme can be facilitated by a suitably worded condition attached to planning permission. 5.10 In practice demolition should be permitted to slab level, to be followed by archaeological monitoring of removal of hard-surfacing to reveal the archaeological horizon. Targeted archaeological investigation comprising test-pits and trenches are then likely to be required to establish the presence/absence of further burials or other significant remains. Provision should be made for further archaeological mitigation measures to follow this work and for subsequent off-site analysis, recording and reporting leading to publication if appropriate.

6 SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS

6.1 This archaeological desk-based assessment has considered a 4.87ha brownfield site off Uffington Road, Stamford. The site is proposed for mixed use re-development. 6.2 The archaeological potential of the site and the significance of heritage assets within the site has been assessed through desk-based review of existing archaeological information for the site and surrounding area, and review of historic maps. 6.3 Data available from Historic England and the Local Planning Authority show that there are no scheduled monuments or other designated heritage assets within the site. Development within the site will not affect the significance of any designated heritage asset in the surrounding area 6.4 The site contains one non-designated heritage asset: an early Saxon cemetery (HER ref 30676), inferred from finds made during construction of a railway cutting immediately west of the site in the 1860s. Development of the current site in the 1970s with concrete hardstanding and brick buildings is anticipated to have had an impact on survival of any buried cemetery evidence within the site. The extent of the modern development suggests that at best there are likely to be only islands of survival, but the original recorded depth of the burial at 4ft does suggest that burials could survive outside of deep intrusions. 6.5 This assessment has also considered the potential for other, as-yet undiscovered, archaeological assets within the study site. Based on the HER dataset for the surrounding search area and the previous development of the study site itself, the site is considered to have a low potential for significant additional archaeological assets. 6.6 The impact of the proposed development on archaeological assets within the study site can be appropriately mitigated through a targeted programme of archaeological investigation undertaken during the early stages of development following demolition to slab level. Such a programme can be facilitated by a suitably worded condition attached to planning permission.
