“As referenced above, the site contains the Grade II Listed General Infirmary, and the Whitefriars Gate (Scheduled Ancient Monument), and the site is also located immediately adjacent to the eastern boundary of the Stamford Conservation Area, which extends along the northern boundary of the site and includes the Friary Gatehouse. The site is not subject to any other planning policy constraints.”

“The development would be served via two existing access points from Ryhall Road.

“Heritage Lincolnshire have stated that “A Heritage Impact Assessment submitted with the application contains an assessment of the impact of the proposals upon the setting of the Scheduled Monument and Listed buildings and on buried archaeological remains.”

“This was echoed by the Councils Conservation Officer. The Stamford Civic Society, supported by the Stamford Local History Society firmly contends that a comprehensive archaeological assessment must be completed prior to any determination of the site’s suitability for development.”

“Road, taking this all into account the proposals are not seen to have an unacceptable impact on the public highway safety. Flood Risk and Drainage As Lead Local Flood Authority, Lincolnshire County Council is required to provide a statutory planning consultation response with regard to Drainage on all Major Applications.”

“National Highways 5.10.1 National Highways has reviewed the documentation provided in support of application reference S25/1082. Due to the small-scale of the development and the distance from the SRN, we have concluded that the proposal is unlikely to have a severe impact on the SRN and so we have no objection to this application. Natural England 5.11.1 No comments received.”

“It was clarified a full archaeological investigation would take place prior to any development taking place. At first instance, a non-invasive radar survey would take place in order to establish any potential finds prior to intrusive investigation such as trial trenching. Throughout the works an archaeological watching brief would take place.”
