    "description": "Southwark\u0027s archaeology has been studied for many years. In some areas of the borough there is a considerable level of knowledge about the character of archaeology. This work has informed the planning of archaeology priority areas across the borough, but these are now large areas that cover archaeology of multiple characters and significances. A more refined approach is now required to protect and preserve the archaeology of the borough Southwark is commissioning this archaeological study and report for three purposes:\r\n1. to inform updated archaeological, conservation and design/ character policies in the new Southwark Plan, expected to be at Regulation 19 stage by 2027. The work should be completed and approved by the Council by Friday 30 May 2025.\r\n2. To aid developers and external consultant teams in their assessment and analysis of sites\r\n3. As a public record of the archaeological (buried) resource within the borough.\r\n\r\nPage 7 of the brief has a suggested list of possible character areas. This does not mean that only these character areas should be considered, as they do not cover the whole of the archaeology priority area and research may well consider these suggestions not to be appropriate. The full extent of the North Southwark and Roman Roads Archaeological Priority Area can be seen on Southwark Maps https://www.southwark.gov.uk/interactive-map click the link to open the map viewer and change the map project (top right) to Southwark Plan 2022 policy map - layers off and click on the Conservation menu item and select Archaeology Priority Areas.\r\n\r\nContact Chris Constable to apply.",
