Abstract: |
This report presents the results of a desk-based assessment, walkover survey and historic visual impact assessment carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) on land at Little Laniley Farm, St. Clement, Cornwall, in advance of the construction of a single 500kW (77m to tip) wind turbine. The proposed turbine would be installed on land that belonged to the Manor of Polwhele and the tenement of Walkey Trees, of which little further can be said. The geophysical survey identified linear anomalies associated with a post-medieval boundary ditch, a possible historic track, modern service pipe and ploughing. Little Laniley is located on the flat top of the deeply-dissected mid Fal plateau, an extensive area of gently-undulating higher ground cut through by a series of steep-sided valleys. This is a largely anciently enclosed landscape of medieval settlements and fields. Tall new vertical elements will be highly visible across the plateau, but not within the many valleys, and the visual complexity of this landscape would serve to diminish the visual effect. |
