Abstract: |
The results of a Heritage Impact Assessment carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) for land at Heanton Barton, Petrockstowe, Devon, in advance of the proposed installation of a telecoms mast. The site is located within the same field as the Grade II Listed Heanton Windmill that is recorded in its listing as a water pump to supply water to the Heanton Sachville Estate, but is noted as a disused corn mill on historic mapping. The Heanton Sachville Manor belonged to the Sachville family until the reign of Henry III before passing to the Killegrews, the Yeos, the Rolles and the Lords Clinton. There are very few assets or findspots noted on the Devon HER in this area. The lack of records in this area are more likely an indication that little investigation has been carried out than of a lack of potential for archaeological deposits and features. The topography of the site would suggest a medium probability of prehistoric activity in the area. In terms of direct impacts, the site has the potential for archaeological features or deposits pre-dating the post-medieval field system which may be uncovered and destroyed during the groundworks for laying the cables associated with the mast and it is suggested that a programme of archaeological recording be undertaken as part of these works. There is also the possibility that pipework associated with the use of the windmill as a water pump may be revealed. |
