Abstract: |
An 18m length of walling located on the south-eastern periphery of Lanlivery churchyard boundary wall (centred at NGR SW 08021 59024) required repair work following partial collapse. The weak and collapsing portion of walling formed the boundary between the churchyard and Lanlivery Cottage, and ran from the corner of the former vicarage in the west to the Listed (grade II) churchyard steps (adjacent to the hall) in the east. Lanlivery churchyard has an oval plan and origins as a lann or 'early medieval enclosed cemetery', dating from the early medieval period (AD 411 to 1066). Since active churchyard use has now shifted east, beyond the original churchyard, Cornwall Council now has responsibility to maintain the original churchyard boundaries. Dan Ratcliffe (Historic Environment Planning Advice Officer, Cornwall Council) requested the initial assessment, which recommended that a watching brief take place during wall repair works (Thomas 2010). This report is the result of those recommendations. |
