Abstract:		 Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Coastline Housing to undertake a detailed gradiometer survey on land off Glebe Place, Ruan Minor, Cornwall, centred on National Grid Reference (NGR) 171900, 15425. A planning application PA12/05796 has been submitted for the erection of 36 affordable and mixed use housing. It is anticipated that the application if granted consent may have an archaeological condition attached to it. In order to help determine and inform the level of archaeological work that may be required prior to consent being granted an archaeological brief was issued by Cornwall Council Historic Environment Service. The brief recommended a geophysical survey should be undertaken in order to provide evidence for any recommendations for further archaeological recording. The site comprises two pasture fields to the north of Glebe Place, approximately 0.25km north of the centre of Ruan Minor. The site occupies the south facing slope of a gently sloping ridge aligned northwest to southeast. The gradiometer survey covered 1.2ha and has demonstrated the presence of a small number of anomalies of possible archaeological interest within the survey area, along with several trends, although the overall archaeological potential is low across the Site. The nature of the trends identified is unclear but it is suspected they are created as a result of agricultural activity in these fields. The geophysical survey would appear to indicate that there is a low potential for the survival or presence of archaeological remains within the Site. There is no evidence of any possible Bronze Age barrows or Iron Age/Romano-British rounds as found in the wider landscape, and it is likely that historically the Site has remained and been used solely for agricultural purposes.
