Abstract:		 The results of a desk-based assessment, walkover survey and geophysical survey carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) on land at land off Kergilliack Road, St Budock, Cornwall, prior to potential residential development. The desk-based assessment indicates that there are a variety of heritage assets in the immediate landscape; including a multi-phased late Prehistoric or medieval fieldsystem identified by a geophysical survey carried out in the field immediately to the east. The desk-based study has demonstrated that 19th century fieldsystem has been subject to some modification, and that the site is bounded on its northern side by a medieval deerpark. The walkover survey identified a substantial ditched boundary on this side of the site, which supports this interpretation. The geophysical survey indicates that there is a high density of anomalies of probable archaeological origin within the area of the survey, including part of a sub-rectangular double-ditched enclosure (round) of probable late Preshistoric and/or Romano-British date. This is one of a large number of such settlements across Cornwall, although there are few known examples within the immediate vicinity due to the growth of Falmouth. The geophysical survey results also indicate a number of other, probable, anomalies that may be associated with settlement activity within and outside the enclosure. The results of the geophysical survey would suggest that there are archaeological features or deposits within the site which merit further investigation. Any future development of this site is likely to damage or destroy these archaeological features or deposits. It is recommended that any future development be preceded or accompanied by a suitable programme of staged archaeological mitigation, to include evaluation trenching, followed by a strip, map and sample excavation prior to any proposed development.
