Abstract:
This report presents the results of a heritage impact assessment that was carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) for the installation of an overhead electrical cable at Land at Brook Cottage, near Bosporthennis, Zennor, Cornwall. The site sits to the east of Brook Cottage and it runs across common land. The landscape remains largely desolate and rugged with very sparse houses and farm buildings, pockets of irregular fields, and the relict former mining environment. The proposal is for the installation of an overhead electrical cable to supply mains power to Brook Cottage which is currently in the process of being renovated. The site lies within the World Heritage Site, however it does not sit in close proximity to any upstanding mining buildings or features. The nearest building is Brook Cottage and its plot is bounded by mature trees and shrubs with a small copse to the east between the cottage and most of the proposed overhead electrical cable. The lanes that provide access to Brook Cottage and to Bosporthennis, to the east and to the west of the proposed overhead electrical cable, are privately accessed and this limits further the potential visibility of the proposal. The site does not appear to be visible from the closest accessible public lane, however extant overhead power cables are visible a few metres to the north. The fence posts, gates, barbed wire, and extant power cables are Modern features that already exist within the moorland landscape and so it is not an entirely pristine landscape. With this in mind, the overall impact of the proposed development can be assessed as negligible. The impact of the proposed development on any buried archaeological resource would be permanent and irreversible, however this is thought to be of low potential.
