Abstract:
HE Projects, Cornwall Council undertook evaluation trenching at a proposed redevelopment of land at Trevithick Manor, Newquay. The development area covers approximately 12.5 ha. A geophysical survey (GSB 2011) and archaeological assessment undertaken by HE Projects (Lawson-Jones 2011) had previously identified a large number of potential archaeological sites, including those identified as a later prehistoric enclosure and field system and Middle Bronze Age roundhouses. Eight trenches were located over a sample of sites identified by the geophysical survey and excavated to evaluate the survival and significance of the archaeological features. The evaluation confirmed the presence of an extensive Iron Age field system and/or settlement features in Area 7. The survival of these remains was good and stratigraphical relationships between features were identified. Finds and material suitable for palaeoenvironmental analysis and radiocarbon dating were recovered from the features. The archaeology of this area would be considered of Regional Importance. The Iron Age field system was found to extend into Area 4. In addition a number of pit and ditch features were found that had stratigraphic relationships with the field system. In another part of the field a large geophysical anomaly was found to be an industrial structure of the later prehistoric or Romano-British periods, with a function connected to the processing of cereal grains. This feature has some parallels with known sites in Cornwall and may be considered of Regional Importance. Finds and material suitable for palaeoenvironmental analysis and radiocarbon dating were recovered from the features.
