Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) prior to the erection of one agricultural building at Parsonage Farm, Chulmleigh, Devon.The proposed development lies in the drained moorland pasture north of Parsonage Farm shown in the cartographic record as Lower Beacon Moor. Despite the traditionally poor drainage of the site there was some archaeological potential for the site; less than 500m uphill from the proposed development lies a cluster of prehistoric funerary monuments protected as Scheduled Monuments (monument refs: 1015154, 1015469, 1015478, 1015468, 1015956 and 1015153); and a possible prehistoric funerary monument has been identified less than 400m to the south of the application area. |
