If there is adequate information on the nature of the existing piles then there is some potential for re-use. An alternative methodology is to drill out the pile and re-use the pile location.
There is a (draft) EH guidance note on piling and archaeology, although I don't know how widely available it is. EH are also running a partnership project with IFA and CIRIA (Construction Industry Research and Information Association) to produce good practice guidance - MOLAS are involved in this and may have further information.
