Abstract: |
AC Ltd was commissioned by Chloe Bines of Migrid to undertake an archaeological assessment of the site of a proposed wind turbine at Boscawen Farm (NGR SW 73533 45149) to accompany the planning application in line with pre-application advice received from Cornwall Council. The proposed wind turbine site is located within the Cornwall Mining World Heritage Site and within a rich prehistoric and historic landscape that includes a number of Scheduled Monuments and Listed Buildings. The proposed development is likely to have minimal impact on identified sites. A controlled topsoil strip and archaeological recording of subsurface works would minimise the potential for impacting additional archaeology in proximity to Boscawen Barrow (Site 94). Given the implementation of the recommendations set out in this report it may be considered that the substantial positive impact of green energy production and the dissemination of the archaeological results appropriately offset the impacts identified. |
