Abstract:
The results of a desk-based appraisal and heritage impact statement carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) for Sails, Polruan, Lanteglos, Cornwall. The site is located within the settlement at Polruan, but on the edge of the historic core and Conservation Area. The site is located within the fishing village of Polruan, first documented in 1284. The proposed development would take place just beyond the edge of the historic settlement, within fields that were probably enclosed in the early post-medieval period, formerly part of a common open field system attached to the village. The development would remove a section of stone wall flanking Hockens Lane. It is shown on maps going back to 1771, and the boundary could be medieval in date. The wall itself is likely to be later, and most of the extant structure has been rebuilt in the 20th century, divesting it of evidential value. The quality of the rebuild is highly variable, but the visual effect is relatively pleasing. Hockens Lane lies on the edge of the Polruan Conservation Area, but it does not form a particularly attractive part of the CA and any visual effect is likely to be highly localised. On that basis the overall impact of the development on the Conservation Area and the GII Chapel is negligible. The impact on the boundary wall would be substantial (i.e. this section of wall would be removed), but the wall itself is of low archaeological value. A recessive, sympathetic design could make a positive contribution to the built environment.
