Abstract: |
This report has been prepared during May 2014 by AC archaeology and represents the results of a historic environment assessment undertaken as a requirement of planning permission for a proposed development of land at the Rose-in-Vale, Ludgvan, Penzance, Cornwall (centred on SW 49961 32733). The assessment has identified that there are 59 heritage assets within the 1km study area surrounding the development site, including a Conservation Area, four scheduled monuments, two grade II* listed buildings, five grade II listed buildings and eighteen grade II listed structures or monuments. The majority of the heritage assets are within the Ludgvan Churchtown Conservation Area. There are no heritage assets located within the development site. No previously unrecorded archaeological features were identified during the site visit. Historic map evidence has shown that the northern boundary of the development area may relate to a prehistoric or Romano-British settlement known as a 'round', which has been previously postulated for the area directly to the north of the site. There may be potential for the survival of below-ground archaeological deposits, together with archaeological remains associated with the former field boundaries represented on historic maps. These may be encountered during any groundworks associated with the proposed development. A settings assessment has identified that the proposed development site is in full view of the nationally important medieval buildings on St Michael's Mount. It is considered that the development will have little, if any, impact on the setting of the St Michael's Mount buildings. |
