Land at Market Street, Buxton High Peak Borough Council Land at Market Street, Buxton Heritage Impact Study Wood Environment & Infrastructure Solutions UK Limited – September 2018 3 © Wood Environment & Infrastructure Solutions UK Limited Executive summary High Peak Borough Council (hereafter ‘the Council’ proposes to redevelop land at Market Street in Buxton for residential development of up to 40 dwellings (hereafter ‘the proposed development’). The site is located at National Grid Reference (NGR) SK058730 within the historic heart of Buxton, Derbyshire. This report has been produced for the purpose of assessing the potential impact of the proposed development upon heritage assets within the site and the surrounding area. Impacts may occur through disturbance within the site or upon the setting of surrounding assets, changing the way they may be viewed, understood or experienced. Due to the intimate and enclosed character of the Conservation Areas contained within the area surrounding the site there is very limited visibility towards the proposed development form these and their associated individual listed buildings and historic structures. As the site is outside of the designated areas and of a design that is sympathetic to the character of the neighbouring Conservation Areas it will have a negligible effect upon the built heritage of Buxton. There is a potential for as yet unknown archaeological material to be present within the site as identified by the site being contained within the Central Buxton Area of Archaeological Interest and the presence of numerous Historic Environment Records present within the surrounding area. The majority of the site appears to be relatively undisturbed by recent activity with the exception of the current structures that are present and as such if any archaeological remains are present they are likely to have survived in a coherent form. It is recommended that a programme of archaeological investigation should be arranged for the site ahead of construction work in order to identify the presence, extent and nature of any archaeological remains within the site. These investigations should be designed and managed in consultation with the Derbyshire County Council Archaeologists.

Impacts may occur directly through disturbance within the site or upon the setting of surrounding assets, changing the way they may be viewed, understood or experienced. If any adverse effects are identified, this report will provide suggestions of potential mitigation for these. 1.3 Site Location and Description 1.3.1 The site is located at National Grid Reference (NGR) SK058730 (Figure 1 and Plate 1) within the heart of Buxton, Derbyshire. It is bounded to the north by housing in South Mews and College Place off of South Street, to the east by Market Street and associated housing, to the south by houses along Hollins Street and to the west by an access road, garages and boundary walls for the commercial properties located along High Street.

Methodology 2.1 Data Collection 2.1.1 In order to establish whether the proposed development will have an impact upon the heritage of the site and the surrounding area data was collected for an area spanning 500m from the site boundary, not including the existing associated access. Data was initially obtained from two primary sources with designated data contained within the National Heritage List for England (NHLE) obtained from Historic England Website and data for local non-designated heritage records and designated conservation areas received from the Derbyshire County Council (DCC) Historic Environment Record (HER). The data covered by these sources are as follows: Historic England: World Heritage Sites; Scheduled Monuments; Listed Buildings; Registered Park and Gardens; and Registered Battlefields. DCC HER: Designated conservation areas; Non-designated asset records including: Extant structures and monuments; Sites of former activity and buildings; and Records of artefact find spots. Records of previous archaeological events including: Desk-Based Assessments (DBA); Archaeological Watching Briefs and Monitoring; Evaluations including Trial Trenching, Geophysics and Field Walking; and Site Excavations. Historic Landscape Characters 2.1.2 All Historic Environment asset data collected is shown on Figures 1, 2 and 3 and the associated titles and descriptions of the individual assets are provided in Appendix A. th 2.1.3 This information has been supplemented by a visit to the Derbyshire Record Office on Thursday 5 July 2018 and through documentary and online sources where relevant. Site and receptor visits within the study area were undertaken on Wednesday 4th July 2018 in order to assess the data collected and assess the current conditions of the area.

  • NEWSTRACK July 2009
    NEWSTRACK July 2009 Fairy podium used for control feature at Hardwick Newstrack is the magazine of Derwent Valley Orienteers. Editor: Neil Forrest, 40 Riber View Close, Tansley, Matlock, Derbyshire. DE4 5HB. Tel. 01629 583899. e.mail : [email protected] Editor’s Opener Thanks to those of you who have contributed articles to this July issue of Newstrack. My interpretation of the role of editor is the person who seeks out and assembles contributions from members of the club with a bit of proof reading, correcting and formatting as necessary with the odd item produced by myself. The electronic copy is taken to my friendly local printer then packaged and posted as hard copy to the membership (only two current members have requested electronic copies.) Newstrack started in the days when only a minority had personal computers so it may well be asked why bother these days when most club members could access it on the Club’s website or even just use the website for regular information and articles about club activities. The view has been expressed however that people still like a hard copy magazine but I have to say that feedback from the membership on this is sparse. As I have said before Newstrack is a forum for club members so don’t be shy to write something, even as a letter to the editor. We are also thinking of introducing a system of guest editors, subject to any volunteers coming forward. It is hoped to produce the next issue in September and Steve Kimberley has offered to guest edit this one.
