Abstract:
Cornwall Archaeological Unit, Cornwall Council, were approached by the client in July 2015 with a request to provide costs for an archaeological watching brief of groundworks at the solar farm at Trethosa Farm, St Stephen-in-Brannel to fulfil a planning condition. The solar farm covers a total of 10.7 Hectares (Ha) over four fields that slope quite steeply to the southwest. It is located 1km to the north of St Stephen in Brannel, centred at OS grid reference SW 93909 54600. The HLC is determined as Anciently Enclosed Land (farmland medieval). A large area to the north of the site is still being actively exploited for china clay whilst there is an abandoned mica lagoon to the east. A geophysical survey of the site had identified a probable Iron Age-Romano-British round, at least two round houses and a number of linear features, some of which are likely to be associated with the round. As a result a no build area was placed over the most archaeologically sensitive area in the northern end of the site. The watching brief on the cable and foundation trenching across the rest of the site revealed 12 features likely to be ditches but did not recover any artefacts.
