Abstract:
The results of a desk-based assessment, geophysical survey and heritage impact appraisal carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) for land near Perranwell station, Perranwell, Cornwall, carried out on behalf of Louisa Meek of CSA Architects (the Agent) on behalf of Mr H. Kneebone and Mr G. Taberer (the Clients), in advance of a planning application. The site is located on the edge of the settlement of Perranwell Station and formerly part of the tenement known as Mellingey Farm. Mellingey is first documented in 1324. Historic OS maps show the remains of a mine worked before 1838 straddle the site; these abandoned workings follow a lode of galena that trends in a north-south direction; one Old Shaft is shown within the site, with another beyond the southern boundary. The geophysical survey that was carried out identified relict field boundaries, a small number of pits and the Old Shaft shown on the historic OS maps. It also identified a faint north-south anomaly that may relate to mining activity. Otherwise, the archaeological potential of the site appears fairly low. The historic visual impact appraisal undertaken focused on a single designated asset, the Grade II Baytree Lodge. The attractive qualities of Baytree Lodge, and its status as one of the most complete surviving fragments of the Mellingey of John Jose, a wealthy Cornsih industrialist who made his fortune in the mines of South America, mean that the impact of the proposed development could be as high as negative/moderate, though appropriate mitigation through design or tree planting would help offset that impact.
