Abstract:		 Historic Environments Projects, Cornwall Council were requested by Mr Bill Jackson, Business Development Manager of Aeolus Power (Wind Energy) Ltd to carry out a geophysical survey of a single wind turbine base and connecting cable at Tregustic Farm, Withiel (Fig 1). The 1 HA survey area was centred on the turbine base and a 20m wide corridor along a short route of cable trench. The purpose of the geophysical survey is to inform further stages of archaeological recording which may be required as part of the planning condition. The area of the proposed turbine development falls into a historic landscape character zone classified as 'Recently Enclosed Land' (Cornwall County Council 1996). The 1840's Tithe map (Fig 5) shows pale, dashed-line depicted fields to the immediate south of the site. These represent short term intakes of land from common ground and rough pasture, and are elements of early post medieval field systems (MCO21065 and MCO21066). Two of the closest intake fields are recorded in the Tithe apportions as having the typically late field name of Down Park, a third one is simply called Common. The northern extension of MCO21066 lies within the immediate area of the turbine (shown with red lines on figures 1, 3 and 4). The details were plotted during the National Mapping Programme from the following aerial photographs; RAF, 1946, CPE/1904/3188 and 3189; and NMR, 1966, MAL/5766/102. These fields are not shown as extant on the Tithe map or the 1875 Ordnance Survey map of the area (Figs 5 and 4). The proposed development is adjacent to an area which contains a large number of known and potential Bronze Age barrows to the west and south (Fig 1). These are identified within the HBSMR as MCO3644; MCO3643; MCO2874; MCO2875; MCO2876 and MCO2842.
