Abstract:
The results of a desk-based assessment and limited walkover survey carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) on land off Antron Hill, Mabe Burnthouse, Cornwall, on behalf of Coral Curtis of Grass Roots Planning Ltd. (the Agent) for South West Strategic Developments (the Client) to support a planning application. The site is located on the south-eastern edge of the modern settlement of Mabe Burnthouse. This settlement originated in the 18th century on a crossroads on the Penryn to Marazion Turnpike, coalescing around a tollhouse (Antron Gate); however, the bulk of the settlement is 20th century in date, expanding massively in the 1960s-70s as a satellite of Falmouth. In the 19th century the fields were attached to the settlement of Antron (Anter), first documented in c.1200, and it seems likely it formed part of a common open field system enclosed during the late medieval or early post-medieval period. Antron appears to have been parcel of the Manor of Carnsew, and was a farming hamlet of multiple tenements. The site is heavily overgrown, limiting the effectiveness of the walkover survey and rendering a geophysical survey all but impossible. However, the site is located mid-slope above a deep valley, in a similar topographical location to the extensively excavated landscape around CUC Tremough campus. Significant multi-period remains dating to the Prehistoric and Romano-British periods have been excavated at Tremough, demonstrating that the archaeological potential of this landscape is considerable but effective mitigation can be undertaken.
