Abstract:
South West Archaeology Ltd. was approached by a private client (the Client) to produce a heritage statement for The Old School House, Michaelstow, Cornwall, as part of the planning submission for a the replacement of the slate roof. This rapid appraisal was undertaken in order to determine the heritage value of the site and the effects of the proposed development on heritage assets in the local area. Situated directly next to the church, the location of the building suggests the potential for occupational deposits of both medieval and post medieval date are high and whilst expected to be damaged and disturbed, there is potential that earlier prehistoric evidence could be uncovered. High Archaeological Potential; however, the roof replacement project will not require any groundworks so for this project, the impact is considered to be Neutral. The individual value of the buildings is low (local) or medium, except for the church and the magnitude of the change is negligible, as the roof is a like-for-like replacement, so the impact of the change would be neutral/slight (with reference to the DMRB/ICOMOS guidance). The scale of the proposals is so minor that, assuming the design and materials are sympathetic to those of the house, as indicated, the overall potential for harm is negligible. It is strongly suggested that the weathered terracotta ridge tiles are placed back on the building’s roof after slate removal, to soften the visual impact.
