Abstract: |
HE Projects were commissioned by Cornwall Council to provide a programme of archaeological mitigation at the proposed development at The Quarry, Castle An Dinas, Ludgvan. The development area comprised 4.5Ha of scrubland on the periphery of the quarry which will be converted to aggregate storage in advance of an extension to the quarry. This was a requirement of Condition 8 of the Review of Old Mineral Permissions (ROMPs). Although the land has a heath-like appearance, it has often been enclosed in the past. Consequently, upstanding archaeological remains, such as barrows, standing stones and prehistoric enclosures often survive in this zone. The adjacent rough ground in the area is no exception and contains a large number of archaeological sites, including Castle-an-Dinas itself. |
