Archaeology
Redbridge is fortunate to have a range
of archaeological remains in the area. The remains
include artifacts made 1000's of years ago, and
evidence of prehistoric settlements from Roman times.
There are also many unusual sites relating to modern
industrial and military archaeology.
The aim of the Planning team is to, by
referring applicants to Greater London Archaeology Advisory Service
(GLAAS), that archaeological heritage is conserved.
All advice offered by GLAAS is given within
the framework of Planning Policy Statement 5
(PPS5), issued by the Department of Communities & Local
Government (CLG), which sets out the way in which archaeology
should be considered within the planning framework.
English Heritage hosts the GLAAS service,
and has an excellent website with a host of links, news, guidance
and information;
