Abstract:		 This project was carried out by Cornwall Archaeological Unit, Cornwall Council for the current land owners. It relates to work carried out at the Scheduled Beeswing barrow (SM CO324) near Cury Crossroads following trench recording and timber structure removal on the periphery of the barrow and a watching brief for a proposed new house in the vicinity. Briefs set out the requirements for the archaeological recording, covering both the requirements for Scheduled Monument Consent and to discharge the archaeological condition for a planning application PA09/00981/F. The WSI provided a methodology for the programme of archaeological recording required by the Scheduled Monument Consent and the planning condition for the proposed construction of a new dwelling close by. The purpose of the project was to create an archaeological record of the barrow as it was prior to works; to record the removal of the structures and to clean up the trench and to produce a drawn record; to record two surface profiles running across the barrow and to produce a measured survey plan with interpretive detail for the site. The project successfully identified an additional section of the stone kerb. This has allowed for a prediction of the original kerb circuit suggesting that more of the kerb may be preserved beneath the eastern flanking boundary and modern re-facing of the southern edge. In addition some of the upper barrow platform profile was identified. At least one internal pit with an intact fill was recorded in the trench section. Later disturbance and alterations have been recorded, which should guide any future remedial works on the site. In addition the watching brief has confirmed that no archaeological damage has been incurred by the construction of a large new house located to the north of the barrow.
