Abstract:		 Following the acquisition of the tenement of Trease at Pendeen to the north of St. Just, West Penwith, the National Trust commissioned Cornwall Archaeological Unit to undertake an archaeological assessment of the holding in 2014. In line with the recommendations contained in the resulting report, the National Trust carried out a preliminary round of decontamination and building conservation works in 2015, focussed on the buildings of North Boscaswell Mine. A second round of works took place between early January and mid May 2016 to complete the conservation of the mine buildings and a nearby smallholders' field barn, manage the scrub which had become established over the site, install stock fencing to allow much of it to be grazed and to address the issues raised by the presence of a small number of potentially hazardous mine workings. The building conserved during this round of works consisted of those making up the northern section of the mine dressing floors including the remains of its exceptionally rare Merton calciner, as well as a field barn associated with the short-lived early 19th century miners' smallholding at Trease. The project was managed by pdp Green of Truro and undertaken by a range of locally-based contractors. CAU undertook a watching brief during the works and advised the client and contractors on details of the work programme as it progressed. In conjunction with this work the National Trust commissioned Archaeovision to undertake a drone-flown detailed photogrammetric survey of the site to aid in its future interpretation.
