2.5. Cultural Heritage

93.               An assessment of the likely significance of the cumulative effects of the Proposed Development upon Cultural Heritage receptors arising from each identified impact is given below. This assessment is based on the methodologies set out in Volume 1, Chapter 10 of the Onshore EIA Report, Section 10.6 Methodology to Inform Baseline, Section 10.9 Methodology for Assessment of Effects, and Section 10.12 Cumulative Effects Assessment. Figure 1.6.1 illustrates the location of the Proposed Development and the Branxton BESS Project and the designated cultural heritage assets in the surrounding area.

94.               To avoid duplication of reporting, the cumulative assessment of SPEN Eastern Link – Branxton Grid Substation and SPEN Eastern Link Project – Converter Station & Cable Route on cultural heritage receptors are not included in this Addendum and are provided in Volume 1, Chapter 10, Section 10.12 of the Onshore EIA Report.
