Abstract:
An update on results from a project undertaken to record earthworks and hedgerows, and carry out large- or small-scale excavations/watching briefs as necessary, along the length of the proposed A30 Indian Queens to Fraddon improvement. Sites along this stretch include the BA Little Gaverigan barrow -- the first major excavation -- which comprised a turf mound, peripheral ditch, and annular stony bank. Highgate segmented ritual enclosure also appears to form part of this ritual landscape and contained a BA cremation/urn and awl. Penhale Round, the second large-scale excavation, revealed a multivallate IA settlement enclosure. Geophysical survey first made known the site's character, also revealing the underlying landscape. The pottery sequence ran from the second or first century BC to the third century AD. Further environmental sampling will be carried out. Halloon Farm field system was detected by magnetometer survey and it is thought that some of the subsequently excavated features represent prehistoric field divisions with fragmentary medieval versions also being present. Mayfield farm cropmark was investigated via three sample trenches and found to represent a pipe trench and assorted faunal and root disturbances. Deep Lane holloway, a possible MEM thoroughfare, and Queens mine also feature.
