Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	A desk-based assessment, geophysical survey and visual impact assessment was carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) at Tregawn Farm, Michaelstow, Cornwall a small village to the south-east of Camelford to investigate and record any archaeological features and material potentially affected by the installation of a 500kw wind turbine on the site and to inform any future planning application for the same. The documentary record suggests that the proposed development site lies within an area of largely medieval and early post-medieval enclosure, largely of former open field systems and common. The close proximity of the site to Helsbury Castle and the likely early origins of the *tre settlements nearby suggest that there is high archaeological potential. The results of the geophysical survey indicate that few archaeological features appear to survey in the area of the turbine, but that at least two probable settlements of Prehistoric and/or Romano-British date lie along the line of the cable trench. The visual impact assessment concluded that the impact of a turbine this location would have a substantial negative impact on the setting of the Scheduled Helsbury hillfort immediately adjacent, and would also have a pronounced impact on the setting of a series of Scheduled Monuments and areas on the north-western side of Bodmin Moor, including Roughtor.
