Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	This report presents the results of a desk-based assessment, walkover survey, geophysical survey and visual impact assessment carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) on land at Lestoon Farm, Luxulyan, Cornwall, in advance of the construction of a single 500kw wind turbine. Lestoon Farm appears to have belonged to the Priory at Tywardreath and later formed part of the Manor of Prideaux. In the early 19th century it was a hamlet of four tenements. The historic fieldscape is a Landscape of Great Historic Value and preserves the form and layout of the late medieval fieldsystem of Lestoon and Treskilling. The walkover survey and geophysical survey failed to identify anything of particular note. The proposed turbine would be located close to the edge of three Landscape Character Areas, of which the Mid Cornwall Moors is the most relevant. The viewshed analysis indicates the ZTV would be extensive within 4km, but highly restricted by the terrain beyond 5km. Only a small number of designated heritage assets - the Grade I church at Luxulyan and the Scheduled landscape at Helman Tor - would be affected to any significant degree (negative/moderate). With this in mind, the overall impact of the proposed turbine can be assessed as negative/moderate, on the basis that while no single monument or building is affected to a significant degree, it would be located within a topographically-subdued landscape and on the edge of a LGHV.
