Abstract:
The results of a desk-based assessment, geophysical survey and heritage impact appraisal carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) for land off Loggans Road, Hayle, Cornwall, on behalf of Ben Pearce of Pearce Fine Homes Ltd. (the Client) in advance of a planning application. The site is located on the edge of the settlement of Loggans, formerly part of the Manor of Connerton, and first recorded in 1154. There is a Domesday reference to a mill at Connerton, but Loggans Mill is first securely documented in 1684. It was rebuilt in the mid 19th century following a fire; the surviving mill building is in a poor state of repair within a recent housing development and adjacent to a Lidl superstore. The site consists of a single field that was attached to Loggans, and the leat that fed the Mill runs along the eastern boundary of the site. The northern and western boundaries are substantial stone-faced hedgebanks that once separated the enclosed parts of Loggans/Loggans Moor from the unenclosed Phillack Towans. The walkover and geophysical surveys failed to identify significant archaeological remains within the area of the development. A series of manhole covers were noted in the field and it is likely there has already been a reasonable level of disturbance from service trenching. However, the BGS lists the superficial deposits in this area as wind-blown sand, and as only some of the service trenches register on the geophysical survey it is likely the sand dampens and obscures the results. The archaeological potential of the site is unproven, subject to the caveats above. The leat to the east is a substantial feature linked to the 19th and 20th century development of the Loggans Mill complex and is thus of clear interest. The proposed breach in the hedgebank flanking Loggans Road should be recorded to determine the structural significance of that feature.
