Abstract:		 Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Cluttons LLP, London, to undertake a detailed gradiometer survey at Bosvale Community Centre, Falmouth centred on NGR 179465, 31875. The aim of the work was to establish the presence, or otherwise, and nature of detectable archaeological features on the site. Bosvale Community Centre is situated in the Prislow area of Falmouth, Cornwall. Prislow is found approximately 1.7km WSW of the centre of Falmouth and 8km SSW of Truro. The site comprises an area of grass to the rear of the community centre and a tarmac parking area. The survey extents were defined by the hedgerows and vegetation on all sides of the survey. Detailed gradiometer survey was undertaken over all accessible parts of the site, a total of 0.6ha, and has demonstrated the presence of anomalies of possible archaeological interest within the survey area, along with anomalies of increased magnetic response. The possible archaeological features detected include several pit type features and two ditches, the first on a NE-SW alignment and the second on an E-W alignment. There is a possible palaeochannel or former watercourse running E-W and the east of the site is dominated by strong magnetic responses likely due to the metal storage containers, cistern, community centre and the car park. The geophysical survey was undertaken between the 12th and 13th January 2015.
