Abstract:
The site is located on the western edge of the parish of Ashreigney, approximately 4.5km west-north-west of Ashreigney and 2.5km north-east of Dolton. It comprises two rectangular fields covering an area of c.8ha situated on the upland of the Torridge river valley. The surrounding landscape contains prehistoric ritual monuments and findspots which suggest that it formed part of a wider funerary landscape; whilst it also formed part of a prehistoric, medieval and post-medieval settled agricultural landscape. Until the 19th century the proposal site formed part of Riddlecombe Moor, an area of open moorland. Brief assessment of historic, cartographic and photographic sources indicate that the site was enclosed in the 19th century, remaining as agricultural land. Site inspection identified the moderately well-preserved remains of three bowl barrows within the site boundary, to the south of the proposed development area. Despite these prehsitooric monuments the geophysical survey of the proposal area identifying only limited potential archaeological remains reflecting the 19th century enclosure of the land.
