Abstract: |
The results of a Heritage Impact Assessment carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) for a site on Slade Park Road, Pensilva, Cornwall. This work was undertaken in support of a planning application. The site is located to the east of Slade Park Road, on the north-eastern limit of Pensilva. Pensilva developed in response to the industrial and mining activity being carried out on the nearby moorland, in a similar way to the nearby settlements of Minions and Darite. By 1860 there were 600 men working at the South Caradon mine and within a few years a single farm had been expanded into the settlement of Pensilva with around 250 dwellings. The Historic Landscape Characterisation (HLC) records the site and surrounding area as Post-Medieval Enclosed Land, i.e. land that was enclosed in the 17th-19th centuries, usually from land that was previously Upland Rough Ground and often medieval commons. No archaeological investigations have been carried out on the site or in the immediate vicinity. To the north east are cropmarks which indicate medieval trackways and field boundaries, to the north-west are the prehistoric features of Tokenbury Camp and scattered over the surrounding landscape are the remains of the mining activity of the 19th century. |
