Abstract:
Archaeological monitoring and recording was undertaken by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) at the request of Mike Nye of James Lockyer Associates Ltd during groundworks associated with the removal and replacement of a collapsed retaining wall on land adjacent to Cobblestone Cottage, Weir Quay, Bere Alston, Devon. The monitoring was carried out by S. Walls during two visits on 21st and 26th August 2016. The proposal is located in an area of archaeological potential relating to the industrial heritage of the Tamar Valley AONB and the Cornwall and West Devon Mining Landscape World Heritage Site. The land is recorded as two areas of gardens bisected by a road/track in 1842. The site is in close proximity to a number of sites of industrial heritage significance, and the plot contains at its eastern end a 19th century limekiln (shown on the tithe map). Notably the Tamar Lead and Silver Smelter complex (of which Cobblestone Cottage was once a part) is located immediately to the east (Buck 2008 and 2012). It is possible that the proposed groundworks for the wall foundations will expose archaeological evidence such as former historic surfaces, industrial products and waste materials (e.g. metalliferous ores, lime/limestone, slags, etc.).
