Summary
An application was submitted to the local planning authority requesting approval for the
installation of Solar Panel Arrays across an area of farm land.
GGAT identified the potential that the proposed works may impact upon the historical and
archaeological resources of the area.
Consequently, they recommended that the MCC should defer any decision on the planning
application until a programme of research was completed into the presence of historical and
archaeological resources of the area.
This desk-based assessment collates the known heritage of the area to show that the proposed
development is not likely to have any impact on any known archaeological resources

1 Introduction
An application for the installation of photovoltaic panels (circa 32,430 panels), and gravel access track at Buckwell
Farm, Pen Y Cae Mawr, Usk, NP15 1LX, was submitted to Monmouthshire County Council (MCC), in October
2013, by Mr C Bevan of Buckle Chamberlain Partnership Ltd (agent) for Mr B Stephens (client), (MCC,
DC2013/00925).
Glamorgan Gwent Archaeological Trust (GGAT) advisors to MCC Planning identified ‘a possible issue for this
planning application’, (MON2075/GP).
The Historic Environment Record indicates that, while there are no previously recorded
archaeological sites within the proposed area, a substantial number of sites ranging from the
Prehistoric to Post-Medieval periods are present within the vicinity of the development.
Although the applicant has submitted a Landscape Character and Visual Assessment in support
of the application that acknowledges the importance of heritage assets, this assessment has not
considered the impact on the setting of either designated or non-designated archaeological
sites within the zone of Theoretical Visibility, and this has restricted its assessment of the
historic built environment to listed buildings
(ibid.).
Landscape Character and Visual Assessment (TDA 2013)
(MCC, DC2013/00925).
Consequently, GGAT advised MCC to defer a determination on the application until and archaeological assessment
had been undertaken and submitted in accordance with advice given in Welsh Office Circular 60/69, Section 12.
Mr C. Bevan contacted APAC. Ltd to undertake the assessment and after reading through the relevant information
supplied on the planning portal, telephone and email conversations with both GGAT and Mr Bevan agreed to take
the contract resulting firstly in the production of a design brief.
The design brief DB2:DK/UBF/14 was approved as ‘fit for purpose’ by GGAT on the 26th Feb 2014 allowing the
work to progress.
2 Location
Buckwell Farm, NGR 342150 196454, can be reached from M4 junction 24 by taking A48, east from the Coldra
roundabout at Newport and a left through the village of Parc Seymour.
At the junction with the Usk Rd, turn left, then right and continue along ‘Old Rd’ until the driveway for Buckwell
Farm on the left, fig 01.
The site is approximately 18.2 hectares of hedgerow enclosed pasture land, on a south easterly valley side through
which runs a small stream, Cas Troggy.
The Cas Troggy runs along the southern boundary of the site separated from it by a rural lane.
The scope and objectives of the study followed the guidelines as set out in The Institute of Archaeologists Standard
and Guidance for historic environment desk-based assessment 2012: http://www.archaeologists.net/codes/ifa
In brief:
The main scope and objectives of the archaeological assessment were to reveal by desk-based study, the nature,
significance and, where possible, the chronology of the archaeology within the area of the proposed development.
The purpose of the desk-based assessment is to gain information about the known or potential archaeological
resource within the given area (including presence or absence, character and extent, date, integrity, state of
4
A.P.A.C. Buckwell Farm, Usk DB/UMP/14
preservation and relative quality of the potential archaeological resource), in order to make an assessment of its
merit in context, leading to one or more of the following:
the formulation of a strategy to ensure the recording, preservation or management of the resource.
the formulation of a strategy for further investigation, whether or not intrusive, where the character and
value of the resource is not sufficiently defined to permit a mitigation strategy or other response to be
devised.
the formulation of a proposal for further archaeological investigation within a programme of research.
4 Methodology
For the purposes of the archaeological desk based assessment, the following sources were consulted:
Gwent Archive
The National Monuments Record (RCAHMW, Aberystwyth)
The Historic Environment Record (GGAT, Swansea)
Cadw
All Ordnance Survey maps of the site and its environs
Tithe, Apportionment and Parish maps (where available)
Other Historical maps held in the Gwent Archives, Local Museums, Libraries or other Archives (where
relevant)
Appropriate archaeological and historical books and journals, particularly excavation reports on works
carried out by Professor Manning between 1968 and 1976, and other evaluations undertaken in the study
area, including GGAT excavation report No. 230 and records of the partial excavation carried out at The
Orchard (GGAT event number E000326)
Aerial Photographs
All available borehole and trial pit data from the site and its immediate environs
Any further geophysical and /or geotechnical data available
A site inspection was carried out and information relating to current land use and any other factors which
might affect the nature and survival of the archaeological resource
Information regarding previous development work on the site will be collated and the impact on
archaeological remains assessed’
The data researched was cross referenced within the works collected to produce an overall record of the known
archaeological and historical resources of the site and its setting.
The data is initially presented as an overview of the general area before narrowing down to a 1 km search zone as
advised by GGAT.
The site is situated in a shallow east/west orientated valley through which runs the Cas Troggy Brook.
To the north and south, the valley rises from an enclosed and domesticated landscape of pastoral and arable land use
towards wooded hills, one of which, Wentwood to the south, retains much evidence of past management
The majority of area stands on solid bedrock ‘Brownstones Formation’: Red, brown and purple fluvial sandstones
with red mudstone interbeds (BGS, Geoindex).

A.P.A.C. Buckwell Farm, Usk DB/UMP/14
A landscape character and visual impact assessment of the proposed development has been undertaken prior to the
present work in which was recorded the following:
3.5 The site is located within the Eastern Foothills & Escarpments Special Landscape Area as
defined by Monmouthshire County Councils Draft Special Landscapes Areas Supplementary
Planning Guidance, December 2003…
3.6 The site is surrounded by many Monmouthshire County Council Rights of Way and also located
adjacent to and within close proximity of designated national and regional cycle routes as defined
by up to date mapping provided by Sustrans…
The site does not contain any listed buildings or scheduled ancient monuments…
(TDA 2003)
It is known that the general area of South East Wales; in which Buckwell Farm is located, has hosted human events
since Prehistoric times, as evidenced by the remains of various period sites and small finds over the years.
Within the vicinity of the site are such archaeological resources as:
To the east Gaer Llywd, SAM MM013, one of the earliest portal Dolmens in the country (Lynch p65 1976).
To the south west Cas Troggy SAM MM15, reputed to be one of a perimeter of six castles built by the de Clares
early in the Norman Period to protect the then Royal Forest , (Phillips, p106. 2006).
Bradney wrote of the surprising need to build such a castle after the death of Llewelyn ap Gruffydd and the peace
that followed and suggested that Roger Bigod built it to ‘awe the wild and lawless Welshmen living in and about the
Wentwood…’ (Bradney p160, 1932).
Wentwood; believed to have originally covered some 7000 acres between the Usk and the Wye has been the focus
of a few archaeological surveys in recent years which have revealed a great deal of interaction in medieval and post
medieval times, interspersed with some evidence of prehistoric presence.
Buckwell Farm lies within the parish of Newchurch; a parish divided into two hamlets Newchurch East and
Newchurch West, with the new church of St Peter (medieval origin) standing on a ridge at the junction of the two
parts, (Newman, p420. 2000).
The eastern half appears to have always been more populous, with 114 houses recorded in 1861 against 36 in the
west, (Bradney, p160. 1932).
Apart from an increase of 4 houses in Newchurch West recorded in 1869, (Clark, p223), both parishes have declined
so that in 1921 the east had only 73 and the west 25, (Bradney, p160. 1932).
Clark also recorded two principle Farms; Great House and Buckwell.
At the beginning of this project, GGAT defined the specific search area to 1 KM around the site centred on 342150
196454 (GGAT Parker, G. email 12/02/2014).
On receipt of this specification, the agent applied for a HER search and duly received the following information:

The above data has been added to a background map of the area fig 02 and colour coded to periods identified in the
HER; ‘unknown, medieval and post medieval’.
Beginning with the outer search perimeter, the archaeological resources can be seen to be dominated by post
medieval features relating almost exclusively to wood management: charcoal burning, sawpits and track ways.
9
A.P.A.C. Buckwell Farm, Usk DB/UMP/14
These post medieval resources arose from The Wentwood Survey Project, E001406 & E001408 undertaken by
Engineering Archaeological Services 2008/9
This is not really a surprise considering how important charcoal supplies were in this area for the local iron
industries.
To the wood management records can be added three houses: 01114g, 01116g, 011139g, two farms: 01117g,
01136g, one chapel: 0891g, one mill: 04033g and a barn: 01128g to complete the compliment of post medieval
archaeological resources.
From the medieval period must be added 1 medieval house: 01121g and a castle: 01120g Cadw MM015; although
01117g listed above as post medieval also has the remains of a motte and bailey, Cadw MM061, which has been
recorded and surveyed (Phillips, p164. 2006).
The rest of the archaeological resources listed by the HER amount to two enclosures: 0118g, 03310g, a track way:
0858g and a church yard: 01135g, of unknown date.
Within the specified 1 km perimeter the dominance of the known archaeological resources are extensions of the
above noted post medieval wood management sites of the Wentwood.
The search perimeter and included HER known resources are shown in fig 03 overlaying the Buckwell farm
Location Plan (1106[BD]1003).
It can be quite clearly seen from this that the proposal will have no impact on any of known archaeological
resources.
Cartographic Information
Both Tithe maps; Newchurch East and Newchurch West were accessed at Gwent Archive office but it was not
possible to identify Buckholt/Buckwell farm with any degree of certainty.
Four maps have been scaled and are presented in fig 04 for comparison, show the changes to the area of the site
since 1830 to present.
The first map, a, is the present site location map with the proposed area drawn in red.
Map b, is the 1st series Ordnance survey map of 1830 which shows the farm ‘ The Buckholt’ as a house and barn in
a rectangular enclosure reached by an access road, down hill to the south.
In comparison with the proposed site, it can be seen that two areas south of the farm, one east and one west were
given over to trees.
Noting the extensive land management of the adjacent Wentwood it is possible that similar land use was undertaken
within these wooded areas.
The 3rd map c shows the farm layout some 52 years later when the wooded areas have been reduced to two narrow
strips and the land has been sectioned off into the smaller rectilinear fields that exist at present.
Access to the farm (Buckwell) is from the west were the road follows the contour of the hill. Another route is noted
as a diagonal path to the south west.
10
A.P.A.C. Buckwell Farm, Usk DB/UMP/14
There were no further changes noted on the 1902 and 1920 revisions and the last map, d, 1973 attests to this because
with the exception of a new metal clad barn next to the original farm complex, the 1973 map is practically identical
to that of 1882.
It can be seen from the map progressions that there are two possible areas of interest may be impacted upon by the
development.
These are the two areas of woodland shown on the 1830 1st series survey and the original road to the south which is
now used as a path and field edge; still retaining a raised bank to the east.
Site Inspection
A site inspection was attempted on the 12th of March 2014, unfortunately in conditions of poor visibility.
A second site inspection was carried out on 14th of March, see cover photograph.
During the second visit, the visual impact of the proposal from the viewpoint of the heritage settings was assessed.
A.P.A.C. Ltd holds a limited amount of reference material on Monmouthshire in its library and in this instance was
able to provide the copies of antiquarian books and journals relating to the known archaeology of the general area
which furnished most of the background history.
The Archaeology Data Service http://ads.ahds.ac.uk, was accessed online for archaeological resources recorded
within the vicinity of the site. The online link directed the search to archwilio.
The British Geological Survey, web site, www.bgs.ac.uk, was accessed online for Geo-technical data. The online
search was able to provide a good geological appraisal of the area and show that there had been no geological work
done in the area designated for this (DBA).
British Listed Buildings, again an online search archive http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/ was able to confirm
there were no listed buildings within the search area.
Cadw was accessed online for known archaeological resources within the area and the specific site research
parameter.
Gwent County Archives was able to supply relevant Ordnance survey maps, tithe maps and apportionments. The
latter proved to be unproductive as any reference to the farm could not be determined. Both east and west maps are
quite sparsely populated and are in very large, unwieldy formats.
Royal Commission on Ancient and Historical Monuments Wales was accessed through the ADS database, see
above and Coflein which did not increase the information provided by archwilio.
Historic Environment Record, held by GGAT was accessed with a search requested by the client’s agent for a 1km
search perimeter around the site centre; co ordinate 342150 196454.
Archwilio, the searchable database of the Welsh Archaeological Trusts was used to add detail to the data resulting
from the above search request.
There are no known archaeological resources within the area to be developed, although the mapping shows that two
areas of wood land have been removed and the access to the farm changed.
Whether the woods would yield archaeological resources relating to wood management or the disused tack way any
chance finds is pure speculation.
11
A.P.A.C. Buckwell Farm, Usk DB/UMP/14
The surroundings do however; show that there has been a human presence in the vicinity since prehistoric times and
that this greatly increased in the post medieval period.
However, there has since been a steady decline of habitation since the beginning of the 19th century.
A Landscape Character and Visual Impact Assessment study was completed for the proposed work in 2013 by TDA
Environment, Landscape, Design.
4.21 The visual appraisal has established that, with the exception of photo viewpoints 11 & 12,
views of the site from surrounding areas accessible to the general public are predominantly
screened by a combination of native field boundary hedgerows & hedgerow trees, the natural
undulating topography of the area, linear woodlands and coniferous trees.
although the applicant has submitted a Landscape Character and Visual assessment in support
of the application that acknowledges the importance of the heritage assets, this assessment has
not considered the impact on the setting of either designated or non-designated archaeological
sites within the Zone of Theoretical Visibility, and has restricted its assessment of the historic
built environment to Listed Buildings.
MON2075/GP. 20 Dec 2013.
The above conclusion 4.12 was undertaken from fieldwork in October 2013, when the trees and hedgerows were in
full cover, which would have presented a major obstacle for any viewpoint study.
Tree and hedgerow cover during this study however was sparse; with new growth, just beginning therefore the
visual obstacle presented was greatly reduced.
Specific viewpoints at heritage assets were visited and assessed as to the potential visual impact of the proposed
works:
‘Old Road’, from which Buckwell farm is now accessed, runs effectively across a ridge, sometimes running in a
hollow between thick tall hedges.
This effectively blocks any viewpoint from the north east, north and north west and west; furthermore, Buckwell
farm buildings stand on the edge of a change of slope, which increases in gradient to the proposed fields, thereby
blocking views from the road because of the ‘false crest’.
Viewed from the south west at Castle Troggy SAM MM15 the view of the site is blocked by the tree line.
Views from the south, south east and east cover the post medieval resources recorded in the north western reaches of
the Surveys undertaken by EAS E001046 & E001048, discussed above as well as the medieval house, 01121g.
With the exception of 01121g from which the view would be restricted by trees, the heritage resources consist of
charcoal burning platforms and sawpits.
It is questionable that such faint remains, which are the norm for these types of features, would be of interest to the
public, but if so, then the dense tree cover in which by their nature they are situated, would prevent any casual views
of the proposed site.
Towards the east the HER lists a post medieval farm: 01136 and a general area for the medieval grange 01141g both
of which would appear to be on private land, but are likely to be out of site of the proposed farm.
Although not included in the HER research, but of major importance in the vicinity and noted for its visual
prominence in the landscape, is the Prehistoric site of Gaer Llywdd, MM013, 01140g, (Phillips & McFarlan 2008).
12
A.P.A.C. Buckwell Farm, Usk DB/UMP/14
Gaerllwydd is ≤ 2.5km east of the site along the valley from the proposed site.
Viewing west from Gaerllywd, the proposed site cannot be seen due not only to the road side hedges but more
effectively by the presence of the secondary ridge to the west, which prevents Gaerllwyd from being seen from the
lower valley (ibid).
The conclusion therefore supports the earlier TBA report, with the addition that there is likely to be no impact on the
heritage assets of the area.
The desk top research has produced some information suggesting that the general vicinity has had human presence
since prehistoric times, culminating in a peak during the post medieval period.
The site itself has been farmed since at least 1830 with little change, mostly all addition rather than disuse or
abandonment
The proposed development will have no impact on any known archaeological resources.
The area does have a minimal potential, based on its surroundings, for undiscovered archaeological resources to be
present.
It is therefore recommended that all ground disturbance on the site, including turf removal for the garage and drive
should be subject to a condition requiring an archaeological watching brief.
