Evaluation

Archaeological 'evaluation' usually takes the form of localised investigation holes and represents an intermediate step required after an initial desk-based heritage assessment has identified possible archaeological potential on a site. Evaluation can be pre- or post-determination but will precede any final decision on what mitigation is required.

'Implementation of a programme of archaeological work'

Most archaeological conditions on planning consent require 'a programme of archaeological work in accordance with a written scheme of investigation' - usually an excavation. MOLA has been carrying out small and large, rural and urban excavations for 30 years.
