Abstract: |
AC Ltd was commissioned by Chloe Bines of Migrid to undertake an archaeological assessment of the site of a proposed wind turbine on land at Hillside Farm (NGR SW 74464 44907) to accompany the planning application in line with pre-application advice received from Cornwall Council. The proposed wind turbine site is located within the Cornwall Mining World Heritage Site and within a rich prehistoric and historic landscape that includes a Scheduled Monument and a number of Listed Buildings. The proposed development is likely to have minimal impact on the identified sites, the most pertinent being the visual impact of the turbine on the World Heritage Site (Site 122) including specifically the Wheal Busy complex (Sites 1-4). Given the completion of the archaeological programme in line with Appendix 2, it may be considered that the substantial positive impact of green energy production and the dissemination of the archaeological results appropriately offset the minor negative impacts identified. No further archaeological work is recommended. |
