Abstract:
Cornwall Archaeological Unit (CAU) was commissioned by Richland Foods Ltd. to provide a geophysical survey for the area to be occupied by a new free range egg laying unit at Pengwedna Farm to the west of Nancegollan, Helston. The prompt for this work was a response to a scoping opinion, in which it was recommended that the survey results should be included within an Environmental Statement. The area surveyed measured 2.2ha. Given the elongated footprint of the proposed development the survey extended across four fields, following a pre-existing trackway. The majority of the features revealed by the survey consisted of ploughed out post-medieval boundaries, though a pair of anomalies at the south-western end of the survey area and a third at its eastern end, appeared to pre-date the modern field system, having different alignments from it. Only short lengths of these boundaries were found and it was not possible to say whether they were associated with a cropmark enclosed settlement of Romano-British date which is sited not far to their south. Evidence for cultivation activity on a different alignment to that associated with the modern field system was also found. Given the results of the geophysical survey it was considered that no further archaeological recording would be required in advance of or during the development, should it receive permission.
