Abstract:		 Historic Environment Projects, Cornwall Council, was commissioned to carry out an archaeological assessment on the potential impacts of a proposed wind turbine development on land at Tregrill, Menheniot (NGR SX 27811 63753), in support of objections to the development. The proposal is for a single wind turbine a hub height of 50m and a height to blade tip of 77m. The proposed site for the development is in an area of fields probably enclosed during the post-medieval period but lying within a wider area characterised as medieval farmland. It lies on the flanks of a ridge to the east of the valley of the River Seaton. The assessment comprised a desk-based assessment, viewshed analysis to 10 km from the proposed turbine site and visits to key heritage assets within the surrounding landscape. The desk-based assessment provided no information on potential archaeological remains on the proposed development site. Viewshed analysis and fieldwork suggested that there is potential for impacts up to and including negative / moderate on the settings of a variety of heritage assets within the wider area, and on historic landscape character. A report summarising the results of the assessment and its conclusions was prepared for the client.
