Abstract:
Between February and October 2020, Cotswold Archaeology carried out an archaeological watching brief during groundworks associated with flood defence improvement works at Helston Flood Alleviation Scheme, Helston, Cornwall. No archaeological features or deposits pre-dating the postmedieval period were encountered. Two upstanding structures comprising a Cornish hedge and a historic garden wall were partially excavated and recorded for the installation of flood defences. A possible dump deposit associated with a nearby former gasworks was also encountered. A spherical worked stone object (recovered from a made ground deposit) may be of Late Neolithic/Early Bronze Age or Roman date.
