Abstract: |
The results of a desk-based assessment and walkover survey carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) on land off Trevarrick Road, St Austell, Cornwall, carried out on behalf of Ivan Tomlin of Ward Williams Associates (the Agent) for Nick Smythe (the Client), in advance of a planning application. The site was owned by the prominent 19th century Lakes family. Robert Gould Lakes created the extensive polite landscape that surrounded Trevarrick House and the proposed site contains part of the mowhay and some of the outbuildings associated with the House, and also the farmbuildings attached to the adjacent farm. The upstanding remains of these farmbuildings survive on the site, with some elements that survive to eaves-height. The historic cartographic sources indicate these structures were built after 1776, and they are all likely to be early 19th century in date, coeval with the construction of the new Trevarrick House. The site is very overgrown and much of the detail and build of these structures could not be observed; further recording during the clearance of the site is warranted. The structures are terraced into the slope by up to 1m and any earlier deposits or features are likely to have been truncated as a result. |
