Abstract:
South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) was commissioned to undertake a geophysical survey on land opposite Trefewha Court, Praze-an-Beeble, Crowan, Cornwall, in advance of the application for planning for the residential development of the site and for related off site analysis and reporting. The results of the geophysical survey would suggest that there are four probable 19th century features and a single earlier feature across the site. In addition several 20th century services also cross the site. Given the place-name evidence it is probable that drainage was vital to the use of the land and a predominant spring and drain to the south-west was likely fed by the drains and ditches probably identified by the geophysical survey. The curvilinear anomaly identified by the survey is probably associated with various curving boundaries associated with medieval field-systems and settlements as can be seen in the wider landscape from mapping evidence through the 19th century and later. It is less likely to be of an earlier date as the majority of prehistoric assets ascribed to the surrounding area, such as barrows and 'rounds' are largely speculative. The geophysical survey indicates that there is slight potential to disturb archaeological features and deposits during any proposed developments. However, these features and deposits appear to be largely post-medieval and modern in origin, with all features appearing to relate to drainage, field boundaries and agricultural activity. In addition it would appear that any archaeological resource on the site is likely to have been severely truncated by ploughing. Further mitigation for the buried archaeological resource does not therefore appear warranted in this instance.
