Abstract:
Cornwall Council's Historic Enviroment Projects team were requested by Cornwall Highways to assess a culvert on the A38 road. Historic cartographic evidence points to development of the Glynn Valley road (between Bodmin and Liskeard) in the early 19th century. The stretch of road at Clinnick had developed from a trackway that was mapped here from the 18th century. Judging from the appearance of its shallow arch and simple construction, the culvert is likely to have been built in the 19th century, probably as part of an upgrade, enabling Clinnick valley to be crossed by an embanked causeway. When the causeway and culvert were constructed at Clinnick, the road was probably a narrower carriageway than at present and most likely had parapet walls (built as Cornish hedges) where the road crossed the causeway. Later 20th century road widening and straightening has resulted in the level of the carriageway being widened and raised further, which has masked the older layout.
