Abstract:		 Historic England commissioned Cornwall Archaeological Unit (CAU) to undertake a comprehensive record of the current condition of Stowe's Hill, Linkinhorne, Cornwall, (Scheduled Monument number 1012352). The site comprises an enclosed hilltop settlement (Neolithic tor enclosure) with associated field systems, building platforms, hut circles, cairns and transhumance huts. And is Listed on the Heritage at Risk register. A significant issue in recent years has been the construction of stone stacks, or 'Fairy Castles' by dismantling areas of the stone ramparts, particularly in the southern enclosure. The vandalism is unlikely to be malicious in intent, but this is classed as a heritage crime and these actions, whether carried out wilfully or not, affect the significance of the monument. The project seeks to make a record of the current condition and preservation of the site, in the light of recent vandalism and to further engage with established volunteer groups in recording damage and dismantling stone stacks. It is the intention that providing new information, interpretation and education will help to prevent further vandalism.
