Abstract:		 Clapper Bridge spans the River Lynher to the north-west of Pillaton, straddling the parishes of St. Mellion and Quethiock at NGR SX 3518 6525. The bridge is a 16th century structure built on the site of an earlier bridge and is both a Scheduled Monument (DCO1293) and Grade II Listed Building (DCO2531). A smaller 18th or early 19th century bridge, Bay Park Clapper Bridge at NGR SX 3520 6527, also Listed (DCO3409), crosses a small tributary of the Lynher immediately to the north-east of the larger bridge. During July 2015 an HGV crashed into both Clapper Bridge and Bay Park Clapper Bridge. This caused substantial structural damage to both structures. Since Clapper Bridge is both a Scheduled Monument and Listed Building, Historic England (HE) set out requirements for archaeological recording during emergency repair works to stabilise the bridge. Cornwall Archaeological Unit were instructed by Cormac Solutions Ltd to carry out archaeological recording whilst one of the Clapper Bridge piers was partially dismantled and to record building construction and detail that had been revealed in the damaged areas elsewhere.
