Abstract: |
This report presents the results of an archaeological assessment for a single wind turbine, access road and electrical cable trench, to be located to the west of Ladock at Tregear Farm, west of Tregear settlement. The project was carried out by Historic Environment Projects, Cornwall Council, for Mr R Stone. This report is the result a desk-top study and a walk-over survey. It identifies and evaluates the archaeological resource in the study area, provides initial guidance on potential impacts and recommends further archaeological work. The site lies near to the Scheduled monument of Tregear Round. The historic character of the land within which the site is located has been classified as Anciently Enclosed Land and Recently Enclosed Land. Twenty sites have been identified, Sites 10 to 19 will all be directly or physically impacted upon to a minimal extent given the likely width of the cable trench. These are all existing or removed field boundaries, of local importance. Sites 2 to 9 are in the vicinity and provide a local context, but are not directly affected and will be largely unaffected in terms of visual impact. Site 1 is the Scheduled enclosure or round site, located 210m to the west (with boundary Site 20 running across the top of its eastern edge). There will be a visual impact upon Site 1 as a result of the proposed development, but due to its ongoing denudation through ploughing and the fact that boundary Site 20 separates the development from the majority of the round this is not considered to be a substantially negative impact. Another single turbine is visible from the round, but this is not considered to be obtrusive. |
