Abstract: |
A detailed magnetometer survey was carried out by Archaeological Surveys Ltd across land to the east of Trewennan Road, St Teath, Cornwall. The survey covered 2ha within a single field. The results demonstrate the presence of a number of positive linear anomalies within the site that are likely to relate to ditch-like features; several end abruptly or are fragmented. The site also contains a pit-like response with an 8m diameter as well as a small number of smaller discrete anomalies. Extending across the centre of the site are two negative linear anomalies and a positive linear anomaly which correspond to shallow earthworks on the ground surface and also appear to truncate several anomalies. It is possible that they relate to former boundary features, but none are mapped from the 19th century onwards. Two orthogonal series of agricultural anomalies can also be seen in the site, several of which also appear to have truncated other anomalies. |
