Abstract:
A range of works were carried out on St Piran's Church, Perranzabuloe, during 2005-2007 by HES in partnership with the St Piran Trust. The project sought to improve the amenity and interpretation of the site by excavating sand from within the interior of the Church. Four trenches were also excavated around the monument in order to better understand the archaeological potential of the site and its wider historic context. A considerable length of the north wall of the Church and the inside of the tower were uncovered for the first time in 200 years. This allowed the production of a structural history of the excavated church and helped identify stonework from the original Church which had been used in the present Parish Church. Features excavated in the evaluation trenches included rubble from the Church), the enclosure boundary of the cemetery, mining activity and prehistoric walling and associated pottery. The project also carried out conservation works to the fabric of the Church and erected three interpretation boards (at the Church, St Piran's Oratory and Perran Round), and a display was organised in Perranporth Museum. A management plan was also produced to provide a long-term strategy for St Piran's Church, the site of the Oratory and Perran Round.
