Abstract:		 The results of a geophysical survey and archaeological evaluation carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) on land at Combe Cross, Filham, Ivybridge, Devon. The site is located south of the A38 and west-north-west of Filham House, historically within the parish of Ugborough. The southern part of the field was examined as part of the South West Gas Pipeline Reinforcement Project. This encountered post-medieval ditch and a single pit that contained wood charcoal and worked flint radiocarbon dated to the Middle Bronze Age. The geophysical survey undertaken identified fifteen groups of probable or possible anomalies that relate to archaeological activity, and four evaluation trenches were opened to determine the character, date, preservation and significance of the anomalies identified. Six archaeological features/groups were investigated: one historic field boundary, one large pit, one posthole, two ditches, and part of a large terraced platform. The latter feature produced Middle Bronze Age Trevisker ceramics, and is interpreted as a Middle Bronze Age sunken-floored roundhouse. This type of structure is characteristic of lowland Cornwall, and these examples extend the known distribution considerably. The site should be subject to further archaeological works, such as an area excavation or archaeological monitoring and recording, as part of any planning condition.
