We are not sure what is meant by the 'initial Archaeology report', but the Archaeological Desk Based Assessment submitted as part of the original planning application can be viewed on the Councils website here: https://www2.richmond.gov.uk/lbrplanning/Planning_CASENO.aspx?strCASENO=21/2533/FUL&DocTypeID=7#docs

A Written Scheme of Investigation for an Archaeological Evaluation has subsequently been submitted to support discharge of condition application 21/2533/DD02, which is available to view on the Councils website here: https://www2.richmond.gov.uk/lbrplanning/Planning_CASENO.aspx?strCASENO=21/2533/DD02&DocTypeID=7#docs

In terms of the bat survey required by the planning condition, a letter from BSG ecology has been submitted to support application 21/2533/DD02, which outlines further survey findings. This can be found at the above link.
