Abstract: |
A watching brief took place along the route of a feeder pipeline into Colliford Reservoir. Evidence from archaeological features pointed to a fairly stable agrarian landscape, characterised by drainage ditches and removed boundaries, but generally with relatively few features or finds. Comprehensive boundary recording took place along the route, including environmental analysis of buried soils from three boundaries. Results indicated that an open heathland landscape existed around Lanhydrock and Mount and a sequence of hazle woodland and open grassland at Lettermoor. Evidence of moorland reclamation and possible Second World War features were located along with a survey and excavation of medieval boundaries along the pipeline on Treslea Downs. [Au] |
