Abstract:
Cornwall Archaeological Unit, County Council was commissioned by Cormac Consultancy in February 2015 to undertake an archaeological scoping assessment of some 80 fields spanning the parishes of Menheniot and Liskeard, located to the south-south-east of Liskeard. The study is focussed around the A38 / B3252 and B3251 junctions and is a scoping assessment carried out in advance of proposed road junction works. Land to the west and south of the study area is included within the Looe and Seaton Valleys Area of Great Landscape Value (AGLV). Within the study area is the Clicker Tot Site of Special Scientific Interest. There are no designated Scheduled Monuments, battle fields or gardens, but there is a single Grade II Listed farmhouse at Torr Farm. There are, however, a number of sites recorded within the HER which lie within the study area. In addition a parish boundary zigzags across the area, which will be affected by Hedgerow Regulations. The assessment consisted of a rapid desk-based assessment using historic mapping and information layers on GIS, and reference to published sources and the HER. There was not a field visit. This report recommends that a geophysical survey should be undertaken, followed by an appropriate level of archaeological mitigation, for example an excavation or a watching brief depending on the results of the survey.
