Environmental Impact Assessment

In order to secure consent for your development you may be asked by the Local Planning Authority to assess the effects of the proposed development on the cultural heritage. This may relate to archaeology (see Desk Based Assessments), historic buildings (see Historic Building Recording) or to the whole environment, requiring an EIA, of which the historic environment is one component.

Archaeology South East can help you. We have extensive experience in the management and production of thorough high standard assessments that can reduce or even remove the risk posed by archaeology, historic buildings and historic landscapes.

Archaeology South East have been involved in a number of major Environmental Impact Assessments, including the proposed wind farm at Little Cheyne Court, Walland Marsh, Kent, housing schemes for Berkeley Strategic and the proposed A24 Horsham-Capel road link, West Sussex / Surrey.

We liaise with curatorial archaeologists and local planning authority conservation officers on your behalf to ensure their concerns are understood and addressed, thereby managing the risk of delays.

Archaeology South East offers an integrated cost effective service from initial assessment to full excavation and publication.
