Abstract: |
Historic Environment Projects (Cornwall Council) were commissioned by Derek and Claire Kevern of D J Kevern Ltd to carry out an archaeological watching brief during the construction of a new dwelling (Injabulo Cottage) in Tregowris near St Keverne located at SW 7727 2245. This work was commissioned to fulfil a condition on planning application (W2/PA10/00103/F) requesting that a programme of archaeological work in accordance with a written scheme of investigation was secured and implemented prior to the development taking place. The site lies within the medieval core of the settlement of Tregowris which is first recorded in 1202 when it is spelt 'Tregaurez'. It also lies in the vicinity of the medieval chapel of St James (first mentioned in 1473), which is recorded as being situated approximately 30m to the west of the site on the c1880 OS map. Other archaeological sites in the area include an Iron Age/Romano-British settlement site with associated field system in fields to the south-west and the probable remains of a medieval strip field system directly to the south identified from aerial photographs. The watching brief, carried out during clearance of the area within the footprint of the house, revealed little of archaeological interest. Three associated ditches or construction trenches were uncovered dating to no earlier than the late 19th or early 20th centuries. No features, deposits or finds of prehistoric, medieval or post-medieval date were identified. |
