Abstract:
The results of a geophysical survey and archaeological assessment carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) on land off Pulling Road, Pinhoe, Exeter, Devon. The site is located on the north side of Pinhoe, immediately north-east of Pulling Road. A walkover survey of the site indicated that parts of the site along its north-west boundary may have been truncated and that possible ridges associated with tyre ruts may also allude to former banks associated with orchard plantations. No visible archaeological features or monuments were present on the site. The geophysical survey identified two linear anomalies, a discrete sub-rectangular/ovoid anomaly and a diffuse natural anomaly. One of the linear anomalies was associated with a possible historic field boundary and modern drainage; the other with a ditch associated with the extant field-scape and south-west site boundary; the discrete anomaly was indicative of a pit, tree-throw or geotechnical pit; and the diffuse natural anomaly is probably associated with geological sediments deposited in association with a dry-valley/coombe that runs across part of the site. Also visible within the results is some geological striation across the site, which is likely representative of underlying geological variation or shallow ground responses associated with ploughing and agricultural activity. The buried archaeological potential for the site is ostensibly low. Any impact by a proposed development on the site on the potential buried archaeological resource would be permanent and irreversible. The enclosed nature of the site means that the proposed development would have no significant impact on any nearby designated heritage assets, although the development will have a slight cumulative effect upon St. Michael's Church.
