Abstract: |
This report presents the results of a desk-based assessment, walkover survey and impact assessment carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) on land at Churchtown farm, Saltash, Cornwall, in advance of the proposed construction of a housing development. The proposed development would be installed on land belonging to the farm at Churchtown; the cartographic analysis indicates that the proposal site and the surrounding area have changed dramatically particularly in the 20th century. The proposed development would be located in an area of post-medieval enclosure, but within the historic core of the medieval churchtown which was potentially formerly a larger settlement than that noted in the cartographic analysis. The site is also adjacent to an area of Anciently Enclosed Land, and must be seen to have some potential for Prehistoric and or Romano-British remains, although these are likely to have been truncated by the later activity. |
