Abstract: |
This report outlines the results of a three year programme of aerial reconnaissance in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly, from April 2008 to March 2011. The project was funded by English Heritage through the Historic Environment Enabling Programme (HEEP). The principal aims of the project were to: Increase knowledge and awareness of the archaeological resource through the discovery of previously unrecorded sites To provide more effective monitoring of the condition of the historic environment Inform the management of Scheduled Monuments, registered parks and gardens and battlefields Raise awareness of, and promote appreciation of, Cornwall's historic environment to a wide audience Support future research projects in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. Data resulting from the flying programme fed into the Monument Management Programme, and all previously unrecorded sites were added to Cornwall's Historic Buildings, Sites and Monuments Record (HBSMR): the digital interface of Cornwall's Historic Environment Record. The project achieved these aims by providing 50 new sites to the HER between 2008 and 2011, including 48 sites that were recorded during cropmark prospecting flights. A further 12 monument records were updated with new information provided by the project. Reports were made on the condition of more than 20 scheduled monuments using data from the project's aerial photographs. Images from the project were used in Historic Environment publications such as books and leaflets, and on the Cornwall Council and Cornish Mining World Heritage Site websites. |
