Paragraph 15 Archaeological remainsI1

Any archaeological remains not previously identified which are revealed when carrying out the authorised development must be investigated and recorded and reported to the Secretary of State, Historic England and the relevant planning authority by means of a technical report identifying the location for the housing of any finds.

No construction operations are to take place within 10 metres of such remains for a period of 14 days from the date of such notification unless otherwise agreed by the Secretary of State, following consultation with Historic England and the relevant planning authority.

If the Secretary of State is of the view that the archaeological remains require further investigation, no construction operations are to take place within 10 metres of the remains until provision has been made for the further investigation and recording of the remains in accordance with details first submitted to, and approved by, the Secretary of State, following consultation with Historic England and the relevant planning authority.
