Abstract: |
An archaeology and cultural heritage assessment for a proposed buried cable route between Week (SS65260124) and Denbrook wind farm (SS68920002), North Tawton, Devon, was undertaken by AC archaeology. The proposed cable extends over a distance of approximately 4.5km through mainly agricultural land. It crosses an area that is rich in archaeological remains, which includes numerous prehistoric barrows, ring ditches and enclosures. Also present is one of the most significant Roman military sites in south west England that includes two forts, two marching camps and a road. A number of these sites are protected as scheduled monuments. Other sites within the route corridor include evidence of medieval and post-medieval settlements and field systems, as well as numerous standing historic buildings and structures, many of which are listed buildings. |
