Abstract: |
Archaeological monitoring and recording was carried out by AC archaeology during groundworks associated with the construction of a solar farm on land west of Parsonage Wood, Pyworthy, Devon. Previous archaeological work comprising desk based assessment and geophysical survey had been carried out on the site, the latter of which had identified a small number of anomalies including a sub-circular feature that was considered to represent the potential for prehistoric activity. The monitoring of groundworks did not expose the possible curvilinear feature interpreted from the previous geophysical survey. Furthermore, no finds were recovered from the topsoil that would suggest that there was prehistoric activity on the site. A field boundary ditch of mid-19th century origin was recorded. |
