Abstract:
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology during groundworks associated with the remediation of mine works at the site. A series of mine workings, comprising shafts and lode working trenches, were recorded, corresponding to known mine workings at the Wheal Harmony or Treleigh Wood Mines. No dating evidence for the features was recovered during the watching brief, however documentary evidence indicates that mining took place on the site since at least the 1760s. Cornish hedges demarcating a mid-19th century field system were extant across the site. The hedges overlay lode working trenches belonging to the earlier phases of mining activity in the late 18th- early 19th centuries. Standing remains of structures pertaining to the last phase of mining activity on site in the late 19th century were recorded.
