Abstract:
Results of a historic visual impact assessment (HVIA) carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) on land at Coxleigh Barton, Shirwell, Devon, as part of the documentation for a proposed development of two (23.45m to tip) wind turbine. The proposed turbines would be installed on land that now forms part of the holding of Coxleigh Barton, Shirwell. The land appears to have formerly been unenclosed open rough grazing attached to the Manor. It appears to have been enclosed in the 19th century. There are fourteen Grade I and twenty Grade II* Listed buildings or groups of buildings within 5km of the site many of which fall outside of the ZTV, together with an extensive number of Grade II Listed buildings. There are five relevant Scheduled Monuments within 5km, of which two fall within the ZTV. Most of the designated heritage assets in the wider area are located at such a distance to minimise the impact of the proposed turbine, or else the contribution of setting to overall significance is less important than other factors. The landscape context of many of these buildings and monuments is such that they would be partly or wholly insulated from the effects of the proposed turbine by a combination of local blocking, and the topography, or that other modern intrusions have already impinged upon their settings. However, the presence of a new, modern and visually intrusive vertical element in the landscape would impinge in some way on at least seven of these heritage assets (negative/minor or negligible to negative/minor), and have a more serious impact (negative/moderate) on the farmhouse and bank barn at Brightleycott Farmhouse. With this in mind, the overall impact of the proposed turbine can be assessed as negative/minor. The impact of the development on the buried archaeological resource will be permanent/irreversible, although only over a relatively small development area.
