Abstract: |
Cornwall Archaeological Unit was commissioned by CORMAC Solutions to undertake an archaeological assessment of an area of land at Eastern Green, Penzance which is proposed to be developed as a Park and Ride facility. The site, which is adjacent to Jelbert Way and to the recently developed Sainsbury's supermarket, was, between May 1964 and September 2012, the site of Penzance Heliport. Prior to this the area had been used as a landfill site, this overlaying quaternary marshland which had been reclaimed to farmland during the post-medieval period. A desk-based assessment and map regression were undertaken for the project area at Eastern Green, and were followed up with a walkover survey undertaken in late May 2016. No archaeological features were found, though the archaeological potential of the buried former marshland underlying the area was highlighted. |
