Abstract:		 HE Projects was requested by Mr Martin Page, Alma SW Ltd, to provide a project design and an estimate for an archaeological assessment and geophysical survey of the proposed site for new build at land on the outskirts of Sennen (PA12/06128). Overall the development covers an area of 0.3126 Ha. The project comprised a desk-based assessment, analysis of a geophysical survey of the site and a walkover survey. The site was laid out on the eastern side of Escalls Green adjacent to a group of 19th century flower fields and to the A30. These fields were extended to the east of the A30 at the end of the 19th century, and the site at Sunny Bank occupies one of these later plots. The surrounding landscape contains the sites of a number of Bronze Age barrows, a standing stone and a possible Bronze Age settlement, whilst within the wider landscape away from the coast, the sites of a number of late prehistoric enclosed farm settlements are suggested by cropmarks and place names. Considerable reorganisation of the agricultural landscape during the medieval period is indicated by the fossilisation of strip field boundaries within the modern fieldscape. No archaeological features were revealed through the geophysical survey, which was dominated by ferrous responses thought to be of modern origin. A report summarising the results of the assessment and its conclusions was prepared for the client.
