Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	This report presents the results of a desk-based assessment, geophysical survey and visual impact assessment carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) at Hollafrench Farm, North Tamerton, Cornwall, in advance of the construction of a single small wind turbine.The settlement at Venton Farm is first attested in 1289, with Hollafrench Farm first recorded in 1404. This hamlet lies within 'Anciently Enclosed Land' and undoubtedly has earlier origins. The historic fieldscape is highly irregular, with hints of strip-field cultivation to the south around East and West Venton Farms. The landscape of the mid 19th century has survived more-or-less unchanged, and the geophysical survey has revealed a small number of relict field ditches, some of which may belong to an earlier phase of occupation. The location of the proposed turbine - close to the base of a shallow valley - limits the wider visual impact of this small turbine. However, it would stand in close proximity to a series of well-preserved barrows located on unenclosed open land to the east. These monuments survive in their original context and have group value. Views to and from these barrows would be interrupted, and the turbine would have a pronounced impact of their landscape setting, despite the small size of the turbine. With this in mind, the overall impact of the proposed turbine can be assessed as negative/moderate, largely on the basis it is a relatively small turbine.
