Abstract/Summary

From the report: "AB Heritage Limited has been commissioned by Moore Planning to produce a Heritage Appraisal, including a targeted Settings Assessment, covering land at Green Lane, Langley, Kent. This appraisal has reviewed all of the known cultural heritage features within 500m of the centre of the proposed development site and identified selected heritage assets and their settings which may be affected by the proposed development (The Old Farmhouse [AB 13], the barn north-west of Redpit [AB 15] & Ye Old Cottage [AB 16]. Of the three heritage assets identified for inclusion in this settings assessment, it is considered that the proposed development may adversely impact the setting of two heritage assets to some degree. These comprise The Old Farmhouse [AB 13] and Ye Old Cottage [AB 16]. It is recommended that, additional tree screening could be implemented to screen the remaining residential elements of the proposed development, particularly in the north-west part of the residential development. This may assist in reducing the remaining visual intrusion of this element of the proposed development upon Ye Old Cottage [AB 16]. Based on the known historical development of the site and study area, along with predicted past impacts within the limits of proposed development, it has been concluded that there is a low potential for the presence of previously unrecorded archaeological remains to be present within the boundary of the proposed development site. A sample of trial trenches across the proposed development site, focusing on the area of residential development is recommended. These recommendations will need to be approved by the Kent County Council Senior Archaeologist and Maidstone Borough Council Principal Conservation Officer where necessary."
