1 INTRODUCTION

1.1 Background

1.1.1 Wardell Armstrong LLP (WA) has been commissioned by Miller Homes (hereafter

referred to as ‘the Client’) to prepare a Written Scheme of Investigation (WSI) for the

undertaking of targeted archaeological trial trenching at land at Henthorn Road,

Clitheroe, Lancashire (hereafter referred to as ‘the Site’). The Site is centred on NGR:

SD 72924 40833.

1.1.2 A desk-based assessment was undertaken by WYG in July 2018 and concluded that no

designated or undesignated assets had been recorded within the site boundary, and

a walk over survey undertaken as part of the desk based assessment confirmed no

visible signs of assets were present (WYG 2018; 18). The desk-based assessment also

concluded that there was a low potential for archaeological remains to have survived

within the proposed development area, as the majority of the assets surrounding the

site dated to the medieval period and later. Cartographic evidence has shown the site

to have been agricultural, and that this may have had a negative impact upon any

archaeological remains (ibid).

1.1.3 Subsequently, a programme of archaeological geophysical survey was undertaken as

a preliminary step in evaluation across the site by Sumo Survey on behalf of Savills UK

Consulting in 2019. This survey highlighted the absence of anomalies across the whole

outline application site (Sumo 2019). Following consultation with Lancashire County

Council Historic Environment Team (LCCHET) a sample of the site via Trial Trenching

was requested.

1.1.4 This Written Scheme of Investigation is for the archaeological investigation of the site,

the scope of which has been agreed with Doug Moir, Planning Officer Archaeology

with the LCCHET. The WSI was prepared in accordance with the recommendations of

Historic England as set out in Management of Research Projects in the Historic

Environment (Historic England 2015), and in conjunction with the relevant CIfA

Standards and Guidance.

2 METHODOLOGY

2.1 Scope of the work

2.1.1 The archaeological work is to comprise a trial trench evaluation.

2.1.2 The trial trench evaluation will primarily sample the site to “ground truth” the scheme

of archaeological geophysical survey undertaken in 2019 (Sumo Survey 2019). A total

of 38 trenches are proposed, with a further 9 trenches held as a contingency. This total

equates to a five percent sample of the proposed development area (Figure 1).

2.1.3 The archaeological work and reporting will be conducted in accordance with Historic

England recommendations (Historic England 2015), and the standards and guidance

of the Chartered Institute for Archaeologists (CIfA 2014a-e).

2.2 Site Conditions and Geological Context

2.2.1 Location: The site is located to the southwest of Clitheroe, Lancashire and to the north

of Henthorn Road (Figure 1). The proposed development area comprises agricultural

land, square in plan and roughly 5.2 ha in size. Modern residential development is

located to the north and south of the site, with further agricultural land to the west.

Henthorn road forms the southern boundary of the site. The site is centred at

Ordnance Survey grid reference SD 72938 40835.

2.2.2 Geology and Soils: The bedrock geology of the site comprises mudstone, known as

Clitheroe Limestone Formation and Hodder Limestone Formation. The mudstone

bedrock was formed approximately 337 to 347 million years ago in the Carboniferous

Period. The drift geology across the site comprises glacial till, which was formed up to

2 million years ago in the Quaternary Period (BGS 2019).

2.2.3 Current land use and Vegetation: The proposed development site comprises

agricultural land, bounded by hedgerows. The site approximately covers 5.2ha of

mainly agricultural land in total, which is currently under pasture.

2.2.4 Historic land use: Readily-available historic mapping indicates that the proposed

development area has been occupied by agricultural land since at least 1844, when

the First Edition Ordnance Survey map of 1847 was surveyed. This map shows a stream

known as Hough Clough extending across the eastern part of the site on a site on a

southwest to northeast orientation.

2.2.5 The use of the site has remained unchanged since the publication of the Ordnance

Survey Map of 1848 was published. A path had been established within the site

Page 6: MILLER HOMES LAND AT HENTHORN ROAD, CLITHEROE … · 2020-04-01 · Miller Homes Land at Henthorn Road, Clitheroe Written Scheme of Investigation 001 Version (0.2) December 2019 Page

boundary by the publication of the 1934 Ordnance Survey map and this lead from

Siddows Hall to Henthorn Road.

2.3 Trial trench evaluation

2.3.1 The archaeological trial trench evaluation will be undertaken to provide information

regarding the potential for buried archaeological remains at the site. This will be

achieved by undertaking a sample of four percent of the site, with an additional one

percent held as contingency, should archaeologically significant deposits be revealed.

2.3.2 The evaluation will obtain information on the date, quality, depth and state of

preservation of potential archaeological remains at the site, if present. This work will

inform the need for any further stage of archaeological mitigation excavation and

recording, in agreement with LCCHET and the client.

2.3.3 It is expected that the trial trench evaluation will comprise up to 2538m2 of trenching

in total. It is expected that this will involve the excavation of up to 47 trenches; each

measuring 30m long by 1.8m wide. This includes the nine contingency trenches which

will only be excavated should archaeological remains be uncovered during the

investigation of the initial 38 trenches.

2.3.4 The contingency trenches will be excavated as appropriate to establish the extent and

help confirm the character of archaeological remains identified within the initial trial

trenches.

2.3.5 The trench positions will be surveyed using a Trimble R10 survey-quality GPS system.

All trenches will be excavated by a tracked mechanical excavator using a toothless

ditching bucket to either the top of archaeological deposits, or the natural substrate,

whichever is observed first under continuous archaeological supervision.

2.3.6 All topsoil, subsoil and modern made ground will be stored on site at least 1m from

the edge of the evaluation trenches. Trenches will be backfilled ‘as dug’ and made safe

but will not include full reinstatement.

2.3.7 If trenches become waterlogged and pumps are utilised, care will be taken to avoid

any contamination of any nearby watercourses.

2.3.8 If required, trenches will be stepped out by 1m on each side to reach the required

depth of excavation. The total depth of trench will not exceed 2m below ground level

for health and safety reasons. Excavation to greater depths would require shoring,

which will necessitate an increase in costing.

2.3.9 In summary, the main objectives of the evaluation will be:

• to establish the presence/absence, nature, extent and state of preservation of

archaeological remains and to record these where they are observed;

• to establish the character of those features in terms of cuts, soil matrices and

interfaces;

• to recover artefactual material, especially that useful for dating purposes;

• to recover palaeoenvironmental material where it survives in order to understand

site and landscape formation processes.

2.3.10 The trenches will be cleaned by hand and all features will be investigated and recorded

according to the Wardell Armstrong (WA) standard procedure as set out in the

Excavation manual (WA 2017). All archaeological features exposed will be sample

excavated; which will typically involve the 50% sampling of discrete features, 25% of

linear features with a non-uniform fill and 10% of linear features with a uniform fill. If

the remains of buildings are identified, these will be cleaned, photographed and

recorded in situ, with sample excavation undertaken as necessary in order to

determine their form, methods of construction, and dating.

2.3.11 All fieldwork will be carried out in accordance with codes and practices outlined by

the Chartered Institute of Field Archaeologists regarding archaeological evaluations

(CIfA 2014b). A Harris matrix will be compiled for stratified deposits to provide a

detailed record of the stratigraphic sequence, according to the conventions written in

the WA Excavation Manual and in accordance with the Chartered Institute of Field

Archaeologist (CIfA) and Historic England guidelines.

2.3.12 All non-modern finds will be collected and retained for processing. Ceramics and

animal bone will be collected in bulk and recorded by context. Significant in situ finds

will be recorded in three dimensions prior to collection. A metal detector will be

utilised to maximise the collection of metal artefacts from the excavated spoil, in

accordance with the Treasure Act 1996 Code of Practice.

2.3.13 Any environmental evidence found during the work will be sampled as recommended

under the guidance of the Historic England Regional Scientific Adviser and undertaken

according to the Wardell Armstrong standard environmental sampling procedure and

nationally agreed procedures as set out in Environmental Archaeology: A Guide to the

Theory and Practice of Methods from Sampling and Recording to Post-Excavation, 2nd

Edition (Historic England 2011). The sampling will typically take the form of bulk

Page 8: MILLER HOMES LAND AT HENTHORN ROAD, CLITHEROE … · 2020-04-01 · Miller Homes Land at Henthorn Road, Clitheroe Written Scheme of Investigation 001 Version (0.2) December 2019 Page

samples of 40 litre volume, taken from the full range of context types encountered.

2.3.14 The palaeoenvironmental assessment will be undertaken of any deposits identified

within the evaluation trenches (if present) through the sampling of cut features,

buried soils and occupation layers, in order to maximise the recovery of faunal remains

(e.g. fish bones) and ecofacts.

2.3.15 In the event that hearths, kilns or ovens (of whatever period, date or function) are

identified during the evaluation, provision will be made to collect at least one archaeo-

magnetic date to be calculated from each individual hearth surface (or in the case of

domestic dwellings sites a minimum of one per building identified). Where applicable,

samples to be collected from the site and processed by a suitably trained specialist for

dating purposes. This specific aspect of the sampling strategy will also be discussed

with Historic England.

2.3.16 Should any human remains be encountered, LCCHET, the client, the police and the

Coroner’s office will be informed immediately upon the discovery of the remains. The

removal of any human remains will be done under a Section 25 Licence obtained from

the Ministry of Justice. The relevant Historic England guidelines, in particular the

recently published Guidance for best practice for treatment of human remains

excavated from Christian burial grounds in England, 2nd Edition (APABE 2017), will be

adhered at all times.

2.3.17 All written records will utilise the WA pro-forma record sheets. Plans and sections will

be drawn on water resistant permatrace. Plans will be drawn to a scale of 1:20 and

sections at 1:10. A full photographic record of all contexts will be maintained in

monochrome, colour transparency and digital formats. All photographs will include a

clearly visible, graduated metric scale. A register of all photographs will be maintained.

A combination of multi and single context planning will be utilised.

2.3.18 All electronic survey work will be undertaken using a Trimble R10 GPS System and will

be transferred into a CAD environment. The site will be levelled with respect to the

Ordnance Datum, and the trenches will be tied into the National Grid.

2.3.19 The opportunity will be given for a representative of LCCHET to inspect the trenches

prior to backfilling, if required. It is proposed that no trench will be left open for over

5 working days without good reason. Following completion of the on-site works the

trenches will be back filled with the excavated material but not otherwise reinstated;

no liability can be claimed for trenches which settle following backfilling.

2.4 Archaeological Excavation

2.4.1 Following the excavation of the trial trenches, further excavation may be required in

order to record the remains of any archaeological features identified, in agreement

with the client and LCCHET. This may take the form of an archaeological excavation,

with an excavation area potentially located to record a sample of the archaeological

remains identified during the trial trench evaluation (if present).

2.4.2 If this is required, excavation areas will be surveyed using a Trimble R10 survey-quality

GPS system. The initial topsoil strip shall be undertaken using a 360 mechanical

tracked excavator with toothless ditching bucket, which will remove the topsoil,

subsoil and modern overburden under constant observation by the archaeologist.

2.4.3 If required by the landowner, topsoil and subsoil will be stored separately and stacked

at least 1m from the edge of the excavation areas. These will be backfilled ‘as dug’ and

made safe but will not include full reinstatement, unless specifically required by the

landowner/client, in which further costs will need to be agreed.

2.4.4 Once the first archaeological horizon has been encountered, all subsequent

excavation will be by hand, undertaken by a team of archaeologists. All features

encountered will be investigated and recorded according to the Wardell Armstrong

standard recording procedure as set out in the Excavation Manual (WA 2017).

2.4.5 All fieldwork will be carried out in accordance with codes and practices outlined by the

Chartered Institute for Archaeologists regarding archaeological excavations (CIfA

2014c). A Harris matrix will be compiled for stratified deposits, to provide a detailed

record of the stratigraphic sequence encountered.

2.4.6 In summary, the main objectives of the excavation will be:

• to establish the presence/absence, nature, extent and state of preservation of

archaeological remains and to record these where they are observed in detail, in

advance of loss through site works;

• to establish the character of those features in terms of cuts, soil matrices and

interfaces, in order to more fully understand the nature of archaeological remains

within these areas; the period(s) of occupation present across the site, and the

relationships between the various periods of occupation and activity;

• to recover artefactual material, especially that useful for dating purposes, and to

help inform understanding of the layout, date, function, phasing, development and

economic function of each area and the contemporary landscape environment;

Page 10: MILLER HOMES LAND AT HENTHORN ROAD, CLITHEROE … · 2020-04-01 · Miller Homes Land at Henthorn Road, Clitheroe Written Scheme of Investigation 001 Version (0.2) December 2019 Page

• to recover palaeoenvironmental material where it survives in order to understand

site and landscape formation processes.

2.4.7 The sampling of the features shall typically involve the excavation of 100% of discrete

features less than 1m in diameter, 50% sampling of discrete features greater than 1m

in diameter, 20% sampling of enclosure ditches and gullies with variable fills, and 10%

of linear boundary features (with sections not less than 1m-wide), specifically

targeting the intersections and termini of features. Other features and deposits will

be excavated as appropriate. Any variations in this sampling strategy will be agreed

with LCCHET.

2.4.8 All written records will utilise the WA pro-forma record sheets. Plans and sections will

be drawn on water resistant permatrace. Plans will be drawn to a nominal scale of

1:20 and sections at 1:10. A combination of multi and single context planning will be

utilised. A full photographic record in monochrome and digital formats will be

maintained. All electronic survey work will be undertaken using a survey-quality GPS

and will be transferred into a CAD environment. The site will be levelled with respect

to the Ordnance Datum, and the features will be tied into the National Grid.

2.4.9 Significant artefacts will be three-dimensionally recorded, whilst pottery and animal

bone will be collected in bulk. Finds will be managed by Megan Stoakley, WA Finds

Manager. A metal detector will be utilised to maximise the collection of metal

artefacts from the excavated spoil, which will be treated in accordance with the

Treasure Act 1996 Code of Practice. Wardell Armstrong will undertake first aid

conservation, but if further conservation is required there will be extensive

consultation with appropriate specialists. Finds will be appropriately recorded and

processed and submitted for post-excavation assessment. Provision for visits by

specialists will be made as required. Obviously modern finds will be discarded

following processing at the company offices, all others will be assessed by specialists.

2.4.10 Should any human remains be encountered these will be dealt with as per the

evaluation phase. The relevant English Heritage guidelines, in particular the document

Guidance for best practice for treatment of human remains excavated from Christian

burial grounds in England, 2nd Edition (APABE 2017), will be adhered at all times.

2.4.11 As with the evaluation, a structured programme of environmental sampling

appropriate to the aims of the project will be implemented. The strategy and

methodology for the sampling of deposits with palaeoenvironmental potential will be

accordance with Campbell et al. (2011) and English Heritage (2014). These will then

Page 11: MILLER HOMES LAND AT HENTHORN ROAD, CLITHEROE … · 2020-04-01 · Miller Homes Land at Henthorn Road, Clitheroe Written Scheme of Investigation 001 Version (0.2) December 2019 Page

be assessed by WA’s environmental team.

2.4.12 All iron objects, a selection of non-ferrous artefacts (including all coins) and a sample

of any industrial debris relating to metallurgy will be X-radiographed before

assessment (Jones 2006). Where there is evidence for industrial activity, large

technological residues will be collected by hand, with separate samples (0.2 litre)

collected for micro-slags, hammer-scale and spherical droplets.

2.4.13 Secure contexts will be sampled for dating as appropriate (whether on site or as sub-

samples of processed bulk samples). This could include carbon-14 dating,

archaeomagnetic dating, luminescence dating (Thermoluminescence (TL) and

Optically Stimulated Luminescence (OSL)) and dendrochronological dating. Samples

for archaeomagnetic dates would be taken on site by the relevant specialist. Samples

for dendrochronological dates would be taken either on site or from recovered

timbers by the relevant specialist in accordance with published guidelines.

2.5 Finds

2.5.1 Finds analysis will be under the direction of Megan Stoakley, WA Finds and Archives

Manager. WA will undertake first aid conservation, but if further conservation is

required following the production of an assessment report, there will be extensive

consultation with appropriate specialists, LCCHET and representatives of the client.

2.5.2 All finds will be photographed and accompanied by a detailed written description, to

form an appendix to the report. Where the owner opts to retain the finds they will be

offered advice as to how best look after them (i.e. such as that can be found in First

Aid for Finds).

3 REPORTING AND PUBLICATION

3.1 Overview

3.1.1 The trial trench evaluation will be followed by the production of an evaluation report,

the process being adopted as set out in Management of Research Projects in the

Historic Environment (MoRPHE) (Historic England 2015). This report will form part of

an overall report detailing the archaeological mitigation undertaken at the site at

Henthorn Road, Clitheroe. The report will include details of the planning history of the

site, site geology and a summary of the archaeological and historical background. The

report will contain a phased summary of the archaeological sequence encountered at

the site, containing brief descriptions of archaeological structures, features and

deposits and incorporating details of artefacts or environmental evidence (where

sampled).

3.1.2 The report will contain illustrative material including maps, plans, sections, drawings

and photographs, as necessary at a recognisable planning scale (1:10, 1:20, 1:50 or

1:100, as appropriate). A location plan of the site, at an appropriate scale and tied into

the OS National Grid, will be included. A plan showing the location and layout of the

areas of investigation, at an appropriate scale, will also be included.

3.1.3 The report will identify areas of defined archaeology, and an assessment and

statement of the actual and potential significance of the archaeology will be made

within the broader context of regional and national archaeological priorities. The

report will include a discussion of the potential physical impact of the proposed

development on the archaeological deposits identified.

3.2 Assessment report

3.2.1 Following the conclusion of the trial trench evaluation, an assessment report will be

produced and form part of an overall report detailing the archaeological works

undertaken at the site at Henthorn Road, Clitheroe. Following MoRPHE guidelines, the

stratigraphic information, ecofacts and artefacts recovered from the fieldwork shall

be assessed for their potential for further (full) analysis in relation to the project’s

research aims and the broader context of regional and national archaeological

research priorities. The report will identify the archaeological potential of the site, and

present an assessment of the site, integrated with previous works carried out nearby

and

• a summary of the contexts of the project archive and its location.

3.2.3 The report will be accompanied by excavation plans, sections and photographs where

appropriate. The research questions applicable to the site, deposits and finds will also

be included, in order that the work will contribute to the relevant national and regional

research agendas (Brennand 2006 & 2007).

3.2.4 Confidentiality: all internal reports to the client are designed as documents for the

specific use of the client, for the particular purpose as defined in the project brief and

project design, and should be treated as such. They are not suitable for publication as

academic documents or otherwise without amendment or revision.

3.3 Publication

3.3.1 Should a publication be required, an updated project design will be produced, which

will define in detail the nature of the analysis required and the form of the proposed

publication. A separate costing will be required for this, in agreement with the client

and LCCHET.

3.3.2 Similarly, a separate costing will be required for production of text and images for an

interpretation panel, which will present the findings of the investigation and the

documentary research, accompanied by appropriate plans and photographs.

3.4 Archive

3.4.1 Wardell Armstrong LLP will make provisional arrangements for the deposition of the

site archive with an appropriate museum or suitable repository agreed with Ribble

Valley Borough Council. This will be agreed prior to site works commencing works

Wardell Armstrong LLP will follow any guidelines from the recipient museum

regarding deposition of the site archive.

3.4.2 The site archive will include all project records and cultural material produced by the

archaeological evaluation and will be prepared in accordance with Guidelines for the

Preparation of Excavation Archives for Long Term Storage (Brown 2011; UKIC 1990).

3.4.3 All finds belong to the landowner, but initially they will be transferred to the Wardell

Armstrong premises at Carlisle. Agreement will be sought on the final deposition of

finds prior to the fieldwork commencing.

3.4.4 During and after the excavation, all recovered artefacts will be stored in the

appropriate conditions to ensure minimal deterioration and loss of information (this

will include controlled storage, correct packaging, and regular monitoring of

conditions, immediate selection for conservation of vulnerable materials). All work

will be carried out in compliance with CIfA Guidelines for Finds Work (CIfA 2014e) and

those set by UKIC (1990).

3.4.5 On completion of the project, Wardell Armstrong LLP will arrange for the archive to

be deposited in accordance with the provisional arrangements made with an

appropriate repository at the onset of fieldwork. Any alternative arrangements will be

agreed with LCCHET and Ribble Valley Borough Council.

3.4.6 Wardell Armstrong and LCCHET support the Online Access to the Index of

Archaeological Investigations (OASIS) project. This project aims to provide an online

index and access to the extensive and expanding body of grey literature created as a

result of developer-funded archaeological fieldwork. As a result, details of the results

of this study will be made available by Wardell Armstrong as a part of this national

project.
