Abstract:
This report presents the results of a desk-based assessment, geophysical survey and Historic Visual Impact Assessment carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. on land at Bake Farm, Trerulefoot, St. Germans, Cornwall, as part of the pre-planning documentation for a proposed solar park. This work has been carried out to cover the entire proposal site; subsequent changes in design in order to avoid archaeological deposits are therefore not accounted for in the desk-based assessment or HVIA. The site is clearly located within an area of medieval farmland, with morphological and field-name evidence for the presence of open strip-field cultivation. Archaeological interventions in the immediate area have been few and far between, but the proximity of St Germans would suggest medieval (if not earlier) remains should be present in the wider landscape. The geophysical survey supports this, and has identified seven probable historic boundaries on the site, and two probable medieval or earlier curvilinear features, which can be tentatively equated to medieval strip fields. The geophysical survey also identified a possible circular anomaly, which may relate to a prehistoric settlement site, but is too slight to represent a traditional 'round'. The ploughsoil was very stony, indicating any buried features on the site are likely to have been truncated by recent ploughing.
