Abstract: |
This report presents the results of an archaeological magnetometer survey. It has been prepared for AC Archaeology Ltd on behalf of clients. The magnetic responses across the survey area were sufficient to be able to differentiate between anomalies representing possible archaeological features and background magnetic responses. Four magnetic anomaly groups were mapped as representing potential archaeological deposits or features and one as possible ridge-and-furrow ploughing. One of the groups is likely to represent a track, or possibly a field wall, recorded on the 1842 Stithians tithe map and later historical Ordnance Survey maps up to and including at least 1972-77. Another represents a track on the same set of maps. One group is likely to represent a field or enclosure boundary recorded on the tithe map only. The fourth anomaly group coincides with, and likely represents, a section of a pre-medieval enclosure recorded in the Cornwall Historical Environment Record (MCO35472). This enclosure was partially recorded on the tithe map as an earthwork or track and continued to be recorded on Ordnance Survey maps in a reduced form up to and including 1962-63. |
