Abstract:		 Cornwall Archaeological Unit was commissioned by Mr Kieran Thomas of CORMAC Ltd to undertake an archaeological watching brief during Stage 1 of the erection of a single large wind turbine on land to the north of the A30 near Ventonteague, St Erme (SW 83136 53346). This was enabling work undertaken by the developer in order to secure their planning permission (PA15/02972). An area measuring roughly 10m x 4m centred at SW 82987 53202 was subjected to a controlled topsoil strip with an archaeologist being in attendance to record any features which were exposed during the ground disturbance. The development had been the subject of an archaeological assessment (Goacher 2014) and the field was classified as Anciently Enclosed Land (Medieval Farmland HLC Sub-Type; land mainly enclosed and farmed from the medieval period) during the 1994 Cornwall-wide Historic Landscape Characterisation. This character type has the potential to contain buried archaeological features. Potential archaeological features had been previously identified within the study area by a geophysical survey (Stratascan 2014). Fieldwork was undertaken on the 2nd and the 3rd October 2018. A ditch [8] was uncovered. This was associated with a removed field boundary identified on the 1880 OS 25
