Abstract: |
The results of a desk-based assessment and Geophysical survey carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) on land off Birch Road, Landkey, Devon as part of the pre-planning documentation for a proposed housing development. The survey has identified three anomalies of probable archaeological origin that are removed field boundaries represented in the cartographic record; and one anomaly of probable archaeological origin which is an earlier removed continuation of one of these historic boundaries. The remaining anomalies are of modern origin and represent cable and service trenching, plough scars, telegraph poles and recent shallow topsoil disturbances such as wheel ruts. The objectives of the survey were to locate any anomalies which may relate to deposits, structures or artefacts of archaeological origin and accurately record their location. The results of the survey will inform any subsequent investigation or mitigation works prior to the development of the site. It is unlikely any significant archaeological remains or deposits will be encountered by any proposed development of the site. |
