Archaeological Desk-Based Assessment: Land to the South of Station Road Non-Technical Summary Lanpro was commissioned by Walker & Son (Hauliers) Ltd. to produce an archaeological desk-based assessment to inform the planning application for a proposed residential development at Land to the South of Station Road, Sutton cum Lound. This addresses the information requirements set out in the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) and provides the proportionate response sought by the NPPF. The study site consists of 2.8ha situated to the south of Station Road, approximately 0.3km to the east of the centre of Sutton cum Lound. The site is currently occupied fields in pastural use. It is bounded to the west and south by field boundaries, to the north by Station Road, and to the east by Sutton Lane. The assessment has established that there are no designated or recorded archaeological assets in the study site and that the proposed development will have no impact upon any designated heritage assets in the wider area. The eastern part of the study site is identified by Bassetlaw District Council as an area of archaeological interest, however, the reasoning behind this is not made clear. The Nottinghamshire Historic Environment Record does not identify any archaeological sites within the study site and it is assumed that the district council have based the area of archaeological interest upon the historic core of the village (as identified by the HER) and a surrounding buffer zone. There is, however, nothing to suggest that the study site has ever formed anything other than agricultural land. The available archaeological records, combined with the results of the analysis of historical mapping suggest it is unlikely there will be sub-surface remains dating to any period, if any remains are present these would likely comprise medieval agricultural evidence and be of negligible to local significance only. The assessment concludes that further assessment of the site’s archaeological potential is not necessary to inform decision-making on the proposed planning application. Furthermore, given the low potential of the study site, it is considered that the imposition of a planning condition requiring further archaeological works would not be justified. 1155H/01 iii Lanpro Services Ltd. Archaeological Desk-Based Assessment: Land to the South of Station Road 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 This archaeological desk-based assessment of land to the south of Station Road, Sutton cum Lound, Nottinghamshire has been prepared by Lanpro Services Limited on behalf of Walker & Son (Hauliers) Ltd. 1.2 This assessment has been undertaken to inform a planning application for a proposed residential development on the site. 1.3 This document provides an assessment of the potential for the survival of archaeological remains within the study site and assesses the potential impacts that the proposed development could have. This study focuses on archaeological and designated heritage assets, assessment of potential impacts upon non-designated built heritage is beyond the scope of the report. 1.4 The assessment has been undertaken to meet the requirements of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF; Chapter 16: ‘Conserving and enhancing the historic environment’, paragraph 189) and is in line with the Chartered Institute for Archaeologists (CIfA) guidelines Standard and guidance for historic environment desk-based assessment (CIfA 2014). 2 LEGISLATION, POLICY AND GUIDANCE 2.1 In considering any planning application for development, the local planning authority will be guided by current legislation, the policy framework set by government planning policy, by current Local Plan policy and by other material considerations. Current Legislation 2.2 The applicable legislative framework is summarised as follows: • Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Areas Act (AMAAA) 1979; • Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) (P(LBCA)) Act 1990 2.3 The AMAAA largely relates to Scheduled Monuments (SMs) and designated archaeological areas, detailing in particular what can and cannot be undertaken on archaeological grounds. 2.4 The P(LBCA) Act provides for the protection of Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas, and is largely expressed in the planning process through policies in regional and local planning guidance, as outlined above. 2.5 The Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act of 1990 is the primary legislative instrument addressing the treatment of listed buildings and conservation areas through the planning process. 1155H/01 1 Lanpro Services Ltd. Archaeological Desk-Based Assessment: Land to the South of Station Road National Planning Policy Framework 2.6 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. 2.7 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, and • Conservation of England's heritage assets in a manner appropriate to their significance. 2.8 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 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. 2.9 Heritage Assets are defined in Annex 2 of the NPPF as: ‘ A building, monument, site, place, area or landscape identified as having a degree of significance meriting consideration in planning decisions, because of its heritage interest. It includes designated heritage assets and assets identified by the local planning authority (including local listing)’. 2.10 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. Heritage Assets with archaeological interest are the primary source

See the individual church profiles for details of each church.

However, a significant part of their time will be spent leading on the Growing Disciples element of the diocesan vision to welcome 7,000 new disciples into our churches in the years ahead. As a diocese we are working through the implications of last year’s report produced by the Church of England entitled: ‘Released for Mission – Growing the Rural Church’. We believe this will help us to deliver our vision. The priest appointed will be based in Sutton-cum-Lound whilst working across the parishes.

  • History of Lound, Retford, Nottinghamshire
    History of Lound, Retford, Nottinghamshire Lound is a Scandinavian name, being the modern form of the old Norse ‘Lund’, a term denotes a wood or grove. Some indicate it may be a copse in which pagan rites were celebrated. The name is common and there are several instances in Nottinghamshire, such as Haughton Lound, Northlund at Blyth, Eastlund at Trowell and perhaps Birkland of which the suffix has become perverted into ‘land’. Until far into the 13th century this village constantly occurs in records as Lound next to Mattersey and sometimes as Lound upon Idle. Fortunately, for its inhabitants it lies more than a mile from that once badly-flooding river, and its sandy soil preserved it from becoming an unproductive marsh. More commonly, the village is referred to in records, old and new, under the compound name of Sutton-cum-Lound, Sutton being the larger of the two, but unfortunately, the annals of both villages are so intermixed that it is difficult to distinguish between them. The earliest known documentary reference to Lound date back to 986, when like Sutton, it 1 formed part of King Edwy’s large grant of lands to Oskytel, Archbishop of York. By 992 both villages were incorporated among the permanent possessions of the archbishopric and by the time of the Norman Conquest, Sutton and its dependencies, of which Lound was one, had attained some importance. The archbishop was then the largest proprietor, his Sutton manor (estate or territorial unit) included land in Lound, Barnby Moor and Scrooby. Together, they were taxed in 1066 at £8 - no small sum in those days and as Scrooby Palace was not in being.
