Abstract: |
The site lies in an area of Truro that was developed in the 20th century and has seen much alteration and redevelopment both within the site and in the surrounding area since 1935. The historic mapping indicates that this was part of a pasture field, encroached on by a small quarry before it was developed for housing. Land to the south and south-east of the site has revealed prehistoric settlements with evidence of metalwork and field systems, although the results of the geophysical survey at Tolgarrick were unclear and did not indicate the level of preservation which was afterwards revealed through intrusive investigations. The proximity of the site to Tolgarrick and the historic usage of the land as pasture would suggest there is a high probability of below ground remains of prehistoric activity. The quarry at the eastern end of the site and the multiple phases of development on the site throughout the 20th century may have disturbed or truncated any remains across the site. However, further archaeological investigations in the form of evaluation trenching or monitoring and recording of the groundworks for the proposed development may be required to establish if any archaeological remains have survived and their extent. |
