Abstract:
In 2011, the Historic Environment Projects team (Cornwall Council) was commissioned by Neil Sandland of Environment, Planning and Economy, Waste Management, Cornwall Council to undertake archaeological recording in mitigation of the impact of the construction of a circa 800m long access road, running from the public highway at La-Mount corner (SW93760 56784) to the entrance to the field where the Cornwall Energy Recovery Centre (CERC) (SW 94466 56938) was to be constructed. Following an archaeological assessment and the results from a geophysical survey, a programme of archaeological recording was carried out in the form of an archaeological watching brief along the route of the road. The line of an earthwork bank marking the parish boundary between St Dennis, and St Stephen in Brannel, believed to have been named as the Treviscoe Dyke in an Anglo-Saxon charter dated to 1049, was investigated with a controlled section excavated across it. The recording demonstrated that the substantial upstanding bank is of recent construction built from material that had been dumped alongside an earlier field boundary of probable late medieval or post-medieval origin. Six other hedge boundaries cut by the line of the road were also recorded and shown to be of probable medieval or earlier post-medieval date. No other features of archaeological interest were recorded over the area of the access road and no artefacts were recovered demonstrating that this development had little or no impact on any significant buried remains.
