Abstract:		 South West Archaeology Ltd. were instructed by Business Location Services Ltd. to undertake a desk-based assessment and walkover survey on land at Chytane Farm, Summercourt, St. Enoder, Cornwall. The walkover survey and the desk-based and cartographic research indicate that the proposed development area appears to have limited archaeological potential. The 1840 tithe map indicates that the three fields in question were formerly divided into four smaller enclosures, but that the field pattern and field-names are suggestive of post-medieval enclosure. Chytane is first referred to in 1296, although the nearby manor of Burthy Row is of early medieval origin. There is a rich heritage of post-medieval industrial sites in the immediate area. The walkover survey indicated that there are no extant earthworks within the three fields. The ground was extremely wet, especially to the west, which is presumably why the study area was only enclosed in the post-medieval period. Two of the fields had recently been ploughed, but almost no finds were noted in the topsoil: only modern plastic fragments and a couple of scraps of white refined earthenware. There appears to be an average c.0.3m depth of topsoil over most of the site, which suggest that any buried archaeological deposits will have at least been partially truncated by modern ploughing.
