The proposed development site is situated on land off the western frontage of the Gainsborough Road and on the northern outskirts of the village of Winthorpe. The development site is located on a north-west facing river terrace that overlooks the valley of the River Trent further to the north-west. The groundworks for this development, which consisted of the creation of several new access driveways onto the two new detached residential dwellings along with further mechanical ground reduction of the areas of the two new build footprints and the mechanical excavation of the foundations for the two new house plots, were the subject of continual archaeological monitoring and recording. No archaeological activity was identified on this site and there were no finds
