Our Services

Site Scan (Archaeological) Ltd specialise in geophysical and topographical surveys but also offer services including:

• Landscape Surveys
• Watching Briefs
• Desktop Surveys
• Test-Pitting

Commercial Sector

Professional developers and industries required to purchase new sites to expand existing operations will benefit from the services offered by  Site Scan (Archaeological) Ltd. Both prior and post the planning consent stage.

Prior and post planning consent, geophysical surveys on sites earmarked for purchase by a company for development would indicate if special consideration for archaeological activity should be factored into project timescales and costings. Many commercial projects are multi-million pound undertakings, any form of delay or alteration to the plans of such projects can therefore be expensive and place high value investment at risk.

Site Scan (Archaeological) Ltd can aid in enabling smooth running cost-effective projects devoid of delay due to the lack of knowledge about a particular site on the part of the developer.

Domestic Sector

Individual planning consents may require an archaeological input that could consist of a ‘watching brief’ in areas of low archaeological sensitivity or this could be accompanied by geophysical surveys and test-pitting if the development site falls into an area of high archaeological sensitivity.
