Representation Summary:

Q3 Response- Additional relevant information in respect of the historic environment should be included (Appendix 1).

Implications for the plan section doesn't include Roman settlement near Mansfield or the Neanderthal Creswell Crags (Palaeolithic site).

Q4 Response- It is recommended that Historic and cultural heritage key messages be revisited to extend the scope and address wording/content issues.

In current form, the key messages do not adequately reflect NPPF requirements for heritage assets and their setting nor impact on significance or harm.

Q5 Response- The current wording is insufficient to assist the Plan to move forward on a robust and sound base.
