Abstract:
Cornwall Archaeological Unit were commissioned by Qila Energy Ltd. to carry out a magnetometer survey of an area at East Helscott Farm, Marhamchurch, Cornwall which may be impacted on by the proposed construction of an anaerobic digester and gas injection plant utilising agricultural feedstock. The survey was sub-contracted to TigerGeo Ltd. and was undertaken in mid-April 2017, though its completion in one area was hampered by mounds of excavated spoil. The area close to Eat Helscott contains a number of Iron Age/Romano-British rounds (enclosed farm settlements) and the survey appeared to show agricultural enclosures and activity areas related to these within two areas to the south-west and east of the modern farm which would be impacted on by the proposals. Other areas of the farm which were covered by the survey produced evidence suggesting medieval cultivation activity, removed post-medieval boundaries and indications of land drainage features. The results of the survey were summarised in a report to the client. It was recommended that the areas immediately to the east of the core of the modern farm and the area to its south-west where it is proposed that a new lagoon will be excavated should be the subject of further archaeological investigation and recording in advance of any groundworks taking place.
