Any archaeological remains not previously identified which are revealed when carrying out the authorised development must be subject to appropriate mitigation as set out in the archaeological framework strategy and mitigation agreed with Somerset County Council's archaeological advisor.

No construction operations are to take place within 10 metres of the remains referred to in sub-paragraph (4) for a period of 14 days from the date they are identified unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Secretary of State.
