Abstract: |
The results of an archaeological evaluation carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) on land at Menehay Farm, St Budock, Cornwall, carried out on behalf of Westcountry Land (Menehay) Ltd. in advance of a planning application for a proposed housing development. The evaluation targeted the geophysical anomalies identified by a survey carried out by SWARCH in 2015. The archaeological evaluation largely validated the results of the geophysical survey and confirmed the presence of a fieldsystem of Prehistoric date and two areas of probable Middle Bronze Age settlement. The archaeology in Trenches #1/#23, #10 and #17 proved to be more complex than the survey had suggested, but by the same measure the evaluation demonstrated that for much of the site only relict field boundaries are present. |
