INTRODUCTION 1.1. This report presents a desk-based assessment of the archaeological potential of land at The Granary in Densole, Folkestone (site centred on NGR TR 21333 41828) (fig 1). This report was commissioned by Keith Mansell of Manse Designs in October 2020, as a pre-application desk- based assessment in view of plans for the construction of a proposed holiday let cottage with garaging below. 1.2. The objective of the current research, in accordance with the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF, 2019) has been to review available existing evidence in order to assess the extent and nature of any archaeological remains within the Proposed Development Area (PDA), and within a 1km radius Assessment Area (AA) which may indicate the presence of any so far unrecognised Heritage Assets, and therefore show the likelihood of such archaeological remains being affected by the proposed new works. 2. POLICY AND RESEARCH FRAMEWORKS 2.1. The National Planning Policy Framework (2019) sets out a series of core planning principles designed to underpin plan making and decision taking within the planning system. The policies outlining the approach towards the Historic Environment are laid out in Chapter 16 ‘Conserving and Enhancing the Historic Environment’ The relevant policies are 184 – 202. Prime amongst these are: 2.2. Policy 184. Which states that ‘Heritage assets range from sites and buildings of local historic value to those of the highest significance, such as World Heritage Sites which are internationally recognised to be of Outstanding Universal Value. These assets are an irreplaceable resource and should be conserved in a manner appropriate to their significance, so that they can be enjoyed for their contribution to the quality of life of existing and future generations.’ And 2.3. Policy 185. ‘Plans should set out a positive strategy for the conservation and enjoyment of the historic environment, including heritage assets most at risk through neglect, decay or other threats. This strategy should take into account: a) the desirability of sustaining and enhancing the significance of heritage assets, and putting them to viable uses consistent with their conservation; b) the wider social, cultural, economic and environmental benefits that conservation of the historic environment can bring; 3 © Invicta Archaeological Services Ltd c) the desirability of new development making a positive contribution to local character and distinctiveness; and d) opportunities to draw on the contribution made by the historic environment to the character of a place.’ 2.4. When determining planning applications, the following policies will be adhered to: 189. In determining applications, local planning authorities should require an applicant to describe the significance of any heritage assets affected, including any contribution made by their setting. The level of detail should be proportionate to the assets’ importance and no more than is sufficient to understand the potential impact of the proposal on their significance. As a minimum the relevant historic environment record should have been consulted and the heritage assets assessed using appropriate expertise where necessary. Where a site on which development is proposed includes, or has the potential to include, heritage assets with archaeological interest, local planning authorities should require developers to submit an appropriate desk-based assessment and, where necessary, a field evaluation. 190. Local planning authorities should identify and assess the particular significance of any heritage asset that may be affected by a proposal (including by development affecting the setting of a heritage asset) taking account of the available evidence and any necessary expertise. They should take this into account when considering the impact of a proposal on a heritage asset, to avoid or minimise any conflict between the heritage asset’s conservation and any aspect of the proposal. 193. When considering the impact of a proposed development on the significance of a designated heritage asset, great weight should be given to the asset’s conservation (and the more important the asset, the greater the weight should be). This is irrespective of whether any potential harm amounts to substantial harm, total loss or less than substantial harm to its significance. 194. Any harm to, or loss of, the significance of a designated heritage asset (from its alteration or destruction, or from development within its setting), should require clear and convincing justification. Substantial harm to or loss of: a) grade II listed buildings, or grade II registered parks or gardens, should be exceptional; 4 © Invicta Archaeological Services Ltd b) assets of the highest significance, notably scheduled monuments, protected wreck sites, registered battlefields, grade I and II* listed buildings, grade I and II* registered parks and gardens, and World Heritage Sites, should be wholly exceptional 63. Note 63: Non-designated heritage assets of archaeological interest, which are demonstrably of equivalent significance to scheduled monuments, should be considered subject to the policies for designated heritage assets. LOCAL POLICY 2.5. Folkestone’s policy is currently being rewritten from the 2006 iteration, however in the initial statement, paragraph 8 states, ‘It was considered unnecessary to include a suite of policies protecting heritage assets (as in the 2006 Local Plan) as these would be covered by Government legislation, national guidance and Historic England guidance.’ And paragraph 11 states, ‘The policies in the Historic Environment chapter have had regard to national guidance. Paragraph 126 of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF, 2012) states that plans should have a positive strategy for the conservation and enjoyment of the historic environment, including heritage assets at most risk through neglect, decay or other threats. Policy HE1 sets out the council’s general policy for this...’ As such, the National guidance documents have precedence in this matter. RESEARCH FRAMEWORKS 2.6. The regional South-East Research Framework for the historic environment (SERF) is still in preparation, however, initial outputs are available online here (footnote) and have been considered in preparing this report, in combination with the above national and local policies. 5 © Invicta Archaeological Services Ltd Figure 1 Site location plan 1:1250 6 © Invicta Archaeological Services Ltd Figure 2 Site development plan 7 © Invicta Archaeological Services Ltd 3. LOCATION, GEOLOGY AND TOPOGRAPHY 3.1. The proposed development area (PDA) occupies an irregular shaped plot of land, as the building is angled to follow the line of the exterior wall of the property (Fig 2). The plot is contained within an area measuring approximately 30m North-east to South-west and 15m North-west to South- east. The land appears to be currently waste and lies to the rear of a current garage style structure. 3.2. The site lies on the eastern side of a shallow ridge above two shallow dry valleys. The geology in this area consists of Head deposits of the Quaternary Period overlying the Lewes Nodular Chalk Formation, laid down 86-94mya in the Cretaceous Period. The site stands at an elevation of around 151m Above Ordnance Datum. 3.3. Around 250m to the east lies Reinden Wood which is a mixed woodland with coniferous and Deciduous trees. This woodland is classified as an Ancient and Semi-natural woodland with areas to the east being Ancient replanted woodland, meaning parts of this woodland have existed since at least 1600 and most likely longer. 4. METHODOLOGY 4.1 The methodology employed during this assessment has been based upon professional guidance, primarily the Chartered Institute for Archaeologists’ Standard and guidance for historic environment desk-based assessment (CIfA 2014). 4.2 The Assessment Area has a 250m radius from a point

  • Draft Shepway Contaminated Land Strategy
    Appendix 1 DRAFT SHEPWAY CONTAMINATED LAND STRATEGY November 2011 Page 1 of 54 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Councils objectives This Council has four strategic objectives within its Corporate Plan. This Strategy is presented in the context of the Council’s Corporate Plan. The objectives that relate directly to the Contaminated Land Inspection can be viewed in Chapter 1, section 1.1. The Council’s priorities Dealing with contaminated land is a complex issue, often where available information is limited. For each site it will be important to balance the relevant issues and to move forward in a logical and methodical manner. A prioritised list of the Council’s aims has therefore been devised to aid decision-making. The Council’s priorities in dealing with contaminated land will be: 1. To protect human health and controlled waters used for drinking purposes 2. To protect other controlled waters 3. To protect designated ecosystems 4. To prevent damage to property 5. To prevent any further contamination of land 6. To encourage voluntary remediation 7. To encourage re-use of brownfield land This list is presented in priority order and in all cases the Council will have regard to significance and likelihood, as required by the regulations. The Council’s inspection timetable The Council has a total of seven top priority potential sites of contamination (see table 3). Six of these sites require reassessment, revisiting or reviewing before the end of 2012 and one site requires remediation as soon as funding for the project becomes available. If any of these sites, following the planned reassessment, revisit or review, requires remediation, this is expected to take a further 18 to 24 months.

  • COUNTRYSIDE Page 1 of 16
    Page 1 of 16 COUNTRYSIDE Introduction 12.1 Shepway has a rich and diverse landscape ranging from the rolling chalk downland and dry valleys of the North Downs, through the scarp and dip slope of the Old Romney Shoreline, to Romney Marsh and the unique shingle feature of the Dungeness peninsula. This diversity is reflected in the range of Natural Areas and Countryside Character Areas, identified by English Nature and the Countryside Agency respectively, which cover the District. The particular landscape and wildlife value of large parts of the District is also recognised through protective countryside designations, including Sites of Special Scientific Interest and Heritage Coastline, as well as the Kent Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The countryside also plays host to a wide range of activities and it is recognised that the health of the rural economy and the health of the countryside are inter-linked. A function of the Local Plan is to achieve a sustainable pattern of development in the countryside. This involves a balance between the needs of rural land users and maintaining and enhancing countryside character and quality. 12.2 This balance is achieved in two main ways:- a. By focussing most development in urban areas, particularly on previously developed sites and ensuring that sufficient land is allocated to meet identified development requirements, thus reducing uncertainty and speculation on ‘greenfield’ sites in the countryside. b. By making firm policy statements relating to: the general principles to be applied to all proposals in the countryside; specific types of development in the countryside; and the protection of particularly important areas.
