Abstract:		 HE Projects were commissioned by ROK to undertake archaeological monitoring during groundwork in advance of the construction of 20 affordable dwellings at Ford Farm, St Ive near Liskeard (centred at SX 31526 67128). Prior to the archaeological fieldwork commencing, a geophysical survey of the area had been carried out (Stratascan 2009) which showed the lines of three ditches crossing the study area in a north, north westerly to south, south easterly direction. The fieldwork succeeded in locating these geophysical features, identifying them as relatively shallow (or heavily truncated) ditches their intercutting relationships indicating that there were three phases present. The character of the ditches suggests that they were originally associated with field boundaries or hedges, the bank element having been removed in antiquity. No dating evidence was obtained for these ditches. None of these boundaries appear on the 1840 Tithe map suggesting that they must predate this and had already been removed by the time the map was surveyed. It is probable that these boundaries formed part of the medieval strip field system associated with the settlement of St Ive. A few isolated postholes were also noted again these were undateable. No other features of archaeological interest were recorded over the area of the site and the development had very little or no impact on any significant buried remains.
