Abstract: |
South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) was commissioned by Cornwall Archaeological Unit (the Client) to undertake a geophysical survey on land north of Ennor Castle, St Mary's in the Isles of Scilly, as part of the pre-development works required for the proposed development. The proposed development site is located immediately north of Old Town, with Ennor Castle and the majority of Old Town to the south; a few residential properties lie to the east of the site across Old Town Lane. The airport lies further to the east with Lower Moors to the west. The geophysical survey identified very few features within the site, and none corresponding to the historic mapping of the area, or to known heritage assets within the landscape. The anomaly groups present seem to primarily relate to modern utilities. The slight change in response towards the eastern edge of the site may represent near-surface geology as well as buried utilities. The results of the geophysical survey would suggest that no clear features of archaeological interest lie within the site boundary. |
