Abstract: |
the results of a desk-based assessment and walkover survey carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. on behalf of Debbie Newcombe of R.A. Rowe and Co. Ltd. on land south of Atlantic View Road, Kilkhampton, Cornwall, as part of the planning submission for a proposed residential development, PA17/03888. The proposed development is located to the north of the historic settlement of Kilkhampton within a largely agricultural landscape and falls under the HLC characterisation of Anciently Enclosed Land, and as such there is a typically high probability of survival of buried archaeological remains in these areas. The site comprises a single field, though was historically part of a sub-division of four fields; and is now waste ground. The land to the north (part of the same historic field group) has been recently developed, the proposal site having been used for spoil storage. The walkover survey failed to identify significant archaeological remains within the area of the development. A series of manhole covers were noted in the field and it is likely there has already been a reasonable level of disturbance from service trenching and spoil movement from the northern development. The archaeological potential of the site is unproven, and the impact of development on surviving buried archaeological remains would be permanent/irreversible. However, given the levels of disturbance, the overall impact of the proposed development is likely to be negligible. |
