Abstract:
An archaeological desk-based assessment was carried out prior to the placing of the Leander class frigate HMS Scylla to form an artificial reef. The desk-based study did not reveal records of any archaeological feature or shipwreck in the specific project area, although 20 wrecks generally located in Whitsand Bay and a further 26 off Rame Head. A seabed survey using a proton magnetometer, side scan sonar and multi-beam sonar and bottom sampling revealed 20 anomalies or targets of possible archaeological interest on the seabed. [Au(abr)]
