Abstract: |
This report presents the results of a visual impact assessment carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) on land at Trecorme Barton, Quethiock, Cornwall, in advance of the construction of two 18m (25m tip) wind turbines. The proposed turbines would be installed on land that belonged to Trecorme Barton - a reputed former manor - in fields listed on the tithe apportionment as Church Park. This land was owned by the Corytons of Pentillie for most of the later and post-medieval period. The site is located to the east of Quethiock village, on the upper south-south-east facing slopes of the hill there. Trecorme lies within an anciently enclosed landscape of medieval settlements and their fields. In this landscape, any tall new vertical elements will be highly visible, especially across the fairly open and sweeping plateau element of this landscape; however, the size of the proposed turbines (25m to tip) and the scale of the landform would serve to diminish any visual effect. |
