Abstract:		 Archaeological monitoring was undertaken by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) during groundworks associated with the construction of a single house plot on land at Little Church Park, Church Hill, Whitchurch, Devon. The monitoring was carried out by E. Wapshott and P. Webb between 18th and 29th June 2018; and was undertaken in accordance with a Written Scheme of Investigation (Balmond 2018) and in consultation with Bill Horner of the Devon County Historic Environment Team (DCHET). The site is located approximately 115m north-east of the parish church of St. Andrew on the eastern edge of the settlement of Whitchurch, to the south-east of Tavistock. The site is situated on the south-west facing slope of Whitchurch Down, east of the River Tavy at a height of c.122m AOD (Figure 1); on the well drained fine loamy and fine silty soils of the Denbigh 1 Association (SSEW 1983); overlying slate of the Tavy Formation (BGS 2018). The site lies in an area of archaeological potential, to the north-east of the parish church, which has Norman origins, and on the edge of the historic core of Whitchurch. The surrounding landscape contains evidence of medieval field systems (including the southern site boundary) and post-medieval mining. The northern limit of the churchyard lies adjacent to the southern site boundary; although this represents 19th and 20th century extensions to the historic churchyard. Tithe records and historic aerial photography indicate that the site was formerly an area of formal garden planting, and was formerly under arable agriculture.
