Pinocchio's Restaurant, 38 Chorley Road, Walton-le-Dale, Lancashire - Archaeological Strip and Record

A planning application was submitted for a proposed small development of land in Walton-le-Dale. The application is an amendment, and concerns the extension of an existing car-parking area associated with land to the rear of 38 Chorley Road. The application area comprises a narrow strip of land that is used presently as a garden, and whilst it lies some distance to the south-east of the site of the know Roman settlement situated to the north-west, it does lie close to the historic core of Walton-le-Dale, and has some potential to contain buried archaeological remains of medieval and post-medieval date.
