Rubicon regularly provides professional advice on how archaeology fits into the planning process. Whether it’s an initial consultation or a more in-depth feasibility study, we provide clarity on the implications of planning policy or planning permission for site specific developments. By working with our clients at the earliest stages of a project, we can provide expert understanding of any constraints or risks associated with a site and mitigate any potential cultural heritage issues. We are committed to sustainable development policy with sensitivity to our archaeological heritage.

A Desk Based Assessment (DBA) is an appraisal using available archaeological and historical information to determine any known, or potentially unknown, archaeological or cultural heritage assets in the area and assess their impact on a proposed site. It is a vital tool in the early stages of the planning process. Rubicon has extensive experience in providing well-researched and succinct DBAs, which give our clients the information they need to assess potential risk, as well as the right level of information to support their planning application.

A walkover survey is often undertaken prior to fieldwork in order to highlight any immediately apparent issues which may present constraints to a project. Walkover may require consulting a series of records and resources such as aerial imagery, historic maps, LiDaR data etc. During the walkover survey earthworks, walls and any other features identified in the landscape are logged with GPS and photographed. By investigating known sites in the vicinity of the proposed development, we provide an overview of the area and ascertain if more detailed surveys may be necessary.
