Abstract:
This report presents the results of a desk-based appraisal and a walkover survey that was carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) to inform the future use and development of Land at Linhay Close, Culmstock, Cullompton, Devon. The site is located close to the base of a south-facing slope and just to the west of the houses and gardens that form the northern extension of historic Culmstock. The Devon Historic Environment Record records the presence of an earthwork enclosure here (MDV60218), however the results of the walkover survey are inconclusive. There is a clear break of slope towards the southern end of the field and this may be what was identified on the aerial photographs. That being said, it is unlikely to represent the remains of an earthwork of Prehistoric or Romano-British origin. Its location relative to the settlement and the character of the vegetation as observed in the field would suggest that it is either the edge of a palaeochannel or much more recent in origin and related to the dumping of topsoil. The overall archaeological potential of the site is probably medium to low despite its location relative to the settlement and the possible enclosure.
