Abstract: |
South West Archaeology Ltd. was commissioned by Terry Kennedy of 3MS Construction (the Client) to undertake a geophysical survey on land at Rame Cross, Wendron, Cornwall. The work was carried out to inform potential future development, and for related off-site analysis and reporting. The site is located immediately north of Rame Croft at Rame Cross, off the A394, at the top of a north facing valley slope in probable post-medieval farmland. The survey identified no significant geophysical anomalies. Some ground disturbance was evident close to the field boundaries, particularly along the northern boundary adjacent to Rame Croft. Late 19th century mapping does indicate a small boundary in the south-west corner of the field, the removal of which may account for some of this disturbance. It is probable that the nature of the underlying igneous geology may have dampened the responses of the survey; however, such comprehensive lack of features is compelling and thus probably reliable. The development would be unlikely to disturb significant archaeological deposits. No further archaeological works are recommended in this instance. |
