Abstract:
The results of an archaeological evaluation carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. on land at Treloweth Lane, St. Erth, Hayle, Cornwall. The site is located in an area of known archaeological potential with the medieval farm of Treloweth to the immediate north, with associated medieval and post-medieval field-systems and prehistoric activity identified in the wider landscape. A previous phase of geophysical survey identified features of possible prehistoric, medieval and/or post-medieval origin. The evaluation identified a total of 18 features, most of which are likely to be post-medieval or modern in date and relating to the existing field-system, land drainage and services. Of these, five ditches are roughly aligned with the existing field boundaries, and may represent removed boundaries and or associated drainage. Further ditches correspond with sinuous features identified on the geophysical survey and may also be post-medieval in origin, though may reflect earlier activity. A series of features including post-holes and ditches located towards the south-west corner of the evaluated area show evidence of possible prehistoric settlement activity. Few of the features produced dating evidence, only one ditch contained prehistoric flint debitage, the remaining artefacts all being recovered from topsoil layers. The apparent association of many of the features with the existing field system would suggest that the majority of features are post-medieval in date. The ditches representing the penannular feature identified on the geophysical survey appear to be of prehistoric date, and along with a series of associated post-holes suggest some limited prehistoric settlement activity.
