Abstract:
Historic Environment Projects, Cornwall Council, was approached by Nicola Davies of Capture Energy Ltd in early February 2013 with a request to provide costs for an archaeological assessment of a single proposed 50m to hub (54m rotor diameter) wind turbine. The turbine is proposed for land at Glebe Farm, South Hill near Linkinhorne mid-way between Bodmin Moor and the Tamar, in the parish of South Hill at OS Grid Reference SX 32784 73281. The site chosen for the wind turbine lies in an area of farmland originally laid out during the medieval period, and is located at the head of a shallow south-west running valley. The site vicinity is strongly rural and largely unspoilt by inappropriate developments. A number of turbine and solar farm applications have been made for sites in the general area, but no such sites are currently intrusive in the area. There are many Listed Buildings, Scheduled Monuments and designated areas including World Heritage Sites within the area, a number of which fall within the zones of theoretical visibility. Much of the surrounding area is covered by AONB, AGSV and other protected areas. Given the location chosen for the wind turbine, it was considered by English Heritage that there was some potential for negative impacts on the settings of some of the important sites in the area, with particular reference to the proximity of the Grade I Listed Buildings of South Hill and Linkinhorne Churches. Assessment has shown that South Hill Church will be affected by the presence of a turbine at this location, and that Linkinhorne church, although not visible from the turbine site at ground level is likely to be visually affected in terms of views from the church itself, since the moving parts of the turbine should be visible above the tree line. Linkinhorne Round, although not designated will also be affected because of its relative height above the proposed turbine.
