Abstract:
South West Archaeology Ltd were commissioned to undertake a desk-based assessment, walkover survey and geophysical survey on the Land east of Lowden Meadow, Newton Road, St. Mawes, St. Just-in-Roseland, Cornwall. The walkover survey and the desk-based and cartographic research have highlighted that there is some archaeological potential within the proposed development area. The shape of the fields and the field names in this area are suggestive of the post-medieval enclosure of a former medieval open/strip field system. The area is located within Anciently Enclosed Land, although there is a surprising paucity of Prehistoric and Roman records on the Cornwall and Scilly HER, and in St. Mawes generally. This is presumably a reflection of the intensity of medieval and post-medieval land-use and development. The development site is situated to the north of a known medieval settlement (Newtown) and within the early medieval manor of Bosloggas. The walkover and gradiometer surveys indicate the upstanding but slight remains of two historic field boundaries, shown on the 1840 tithe map but removed post-1963. The fact that these two hedge banks are so slight may suggest that there has been extensive truncation through ploughing, but it is probably more likely to reflect the removal of these features by machine. Most of the anomalies identified by the gradiometer survey can be attributed to lost historic field boundaries, but some other linear features are present that may belong to an earlier fieldsystem.
