Abstract:
As part of preliminary archaeological investigations in advance of the development of a proposed anaerobic digester plant and gas injection unit at Penans Farm, Grampound, Cornwall, Qila Energy asked Cornwall Archaeological Unit to commission an archaeological geophysical survey of the agricultural enclosure in which the development was proposed. The survey was carried out by TigerGeo Ltd. Elements of ploughed out field system boundaries were revealed together with indications of ridge and furrow cultivation. Strong anomalies appeared to represent a stone-lined pond and an associated culvert, parts of a probably early 18th century water management system, some of whose components are documented on archive maps. The survey also revealed indications of the site of a probable Bronze Age barrow and a probable late prehistoric or Romano-British a field system, parts of which appear to respect the position of the barrow. Evaluation of anomalies revealed by the geophysical survey has been recommended by the Historic Environment Planning Advice Officer prior to any groundworks taking place on site in order to truth test the results of the geophysical survey and to determine whether further archaeological recording is required.
