Abstract: |
In July 2016 Cornwall Archaeological Unit were commissioned by Georgina Bishop, Interpretation Officer for English Heritage, to undertake an archaeological watching brief during the replacement of interpretation panels within the Guardianship area of the English Heritage managed site of Chysauster Ancient Village, Madron, Penzance, Cornwall. This phase of works consisted of the replacement of a small number of operational signs, four interpretation panels in the education hut, the replacement of three existing externally-sited interpretation panels and their concrete mounted stands and the installation of three interpretation panels at new locations within the site. All the works relating to the installation of the new signage was undertaken by hand. Only very limited areas of the site were disturbed and only one artifact was recovered. Another interpretation panel incorporating a model of the site derived from the recent Historic England survey of Chysauster was installed in August 2016, together with interpretative material at Carn Euny near Sancreed. These small-scale works were also the subject of an archaeological watching brief. |
