Abstract:
An archaeological trench evaluation undertaken within Scheduled Monument DV1027, Crownhill Down, Hemerdon was carried out by AC archaeology, situated on the western slope of Crownhill Down. It is part of a much larger area which has existing planning permission for the extraction of tungsten, tin and china clay and the tipping of waste. Scheduled Monument DV1027 consists of what was thought to be a linear group of six round barrows or cairns visible as earthworks, with six more possible mounds present. An earthwork bank is also located within the scheduled area. The evaluation comprised the machine and hand-excavation of 30 trenches, with these positioned to investigate some of the above features, although some were 'control' trenches, located where no remains were recorded.
