File consists of an archaeological resource impact assessment report prepared by Davis Archaeological Consultants for the Halifax Regional Municipality regarding a proposed recreational facility and fire station at the Jefferson property in Fall River.
In August 2006, Davis Archaeological Consultants Limited was contracted by Halifax Regional Municipality to conduct a phase III archaeological resource impact assessment of the proposed Fall River Recreational Facility and Fire Station at the Jefferson Property on Fall River Road. The purpose of the assessment was to fully document and more clearly define the archaeological features identified and recorded in December 2004 and to determine the function of a feature identified near the southeast corner of the Jefferson house. These features are to be capped with fill prior to construction and artificially delineated through landscaping. The paddock wall identified in 2004 will be dismantled.
The assessment was conducted under Category C Heritage Research Permit A2006NS59
issued by the Nova Scotia Heritage Division.
