Abstract: |
The results of a desk-based appraisal and historic visual impact assessment (HVIA) carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. At The Old Coalyard, Duporth Road, Charlestown, St. Austell, Cornwall, as part of the planning submission for a proposed residential development. The proposed development would take place on the site of a former coal yard within the historic core of the 18th-19th century industrial port of Charlestown. The site is situated off the main thoroughfare (Charlestown Road) and to the north of Duporth Road, and is divisible into two distinct elements: former cottage gardens, and the remnants of a cobbled ore floor. The terraced nature of the site implies that the archaeological potential is relatively low to the north, although following a process of clearance and cleaning the detailed recording of the remnants of the ore surface would be a worthwhile exercise. |
