We welcome specific provision for the protection and enhancement of archaeology and emphasis that sites of archaeological importance can occur everywhere. Give clear guidance on expectations for archaeological recording and the submission of records with an appropriate public record for archaeological remains that are not retained in situ. Where suggested sites are located in areas of known archaeological potential, give weight to this as a consideration in site selection. Liaise with the County Archaeologist at site allocation stage. Emphasise in policies and supporting text that the setting of heritage assets should be considered holistically as part of the historic environment.
