Summary

Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Galloper Wind Farm Limited to undertake a review of an area of archaeological material identified during Unexploded Ordnance Survey of the Offshore Wind Farm, undertaken as part of the Galloper Offshore Wind Farm project. Wessex Archaeology's assessment of remotely operated vehicle (ROV) survey data interpreted it as debris from an aircraft crash site dating to the Second World War, comprising a concentration of aluminium sheets, other aluminium material, wires, metal debris, possible canvas fabric and lightweight fabric. A temporary Archaeological Exclusion Zone (AEZ) was initially recommended, however, as the proposed locations of the array cables would impact the area, and following consultation with Historic England, the temporary AEZ was removed, and further discussions regarding mitigation for the site were initiated. The Protection of Military Remains Act 1986 applies to the fabric and contents of the aircraft - including cargo and crew. Given the identification of the site as likely Second World War military aircraft material, the Ministry of Defence has been consulted. Intentional disturbance of the site without a licence or permission would be in breach of the Act.
