Abstract:		 Historic Environment Projects, Cornwall Council, was approached in September 2013 with a request to provide costs for an archaeological assessment of the potential impacts of construction of a wind turbine at Lanuah Farm, St Ewe as part of a proposed planning application. The proposal is for a 900kw wind turbine with a hub height of 45m and a maximum blade tip height of 67m positioned on agricultural land at Lanuah Farm, to the west of Mevagissey, in the parish of St Ewe at SW 98431 45333 (NGR). The wind turbine is to be sited at a height of approximately 90m OD to the west of a ridge crest. The area surrounding the site proposed for the turbine is recorded as Farmland, Medieval. The assessment consisted of a desk-based assessment, viewshed analysis out to 10km and consideration of designated sites up to 15km from the proposed turbine location, and a walkover survey. It was anticipated that there was some potential for negative impacts on the settings of a number of important Scheduled Monuments, Listed Buildings, Registered Parks and Gardens and Conservation Areas within a 15km radius. Visibility of the site was particularly good from the ridge-tops that characterise the area. The heritage assets are spread quite equally around the proposed turbine site although at approximately 5-10km the coastline cuts across from southwest to northeast in the southeasterly sector. Cumulative impacts were also assessed as a result of the increasing number of existing and proposed turbines in the area. Overall the potential impacts of the proposed wind turbine on the identified heritage assets is rated as minor with the impact on St Ewe, Polmassick, Heligan and Caerhays as moderate or large. A report summarising the results of the assessment and its conclusions was prepared for the client.
