South West Archaeology Ltd. 2 Land at Ridgecombe Farm, Lifton, Devon Summary This report presents the results of an archaeological evaluation and historic visual impact assessment carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) at Ridgecombe Farm Lifton, Devon. The proposed turbine would be located in a field immediately north of a known prehistoric earthwork and cropmark enclosure; despite this the features identified in the geophysical survey appear to relate to removed field-boundaries, possibly from two different phases. The archaeological evaluation revealed an undated ditch on a different alignment to the existing field system as identified on the geophysical survey. A remnant soil, cut by this ditch, which respects the gently undulating ridge described below was also identified. In terms of the wider landscape, the site is located on a north-east facing slope, below the summit of a gently undulating east-west orientated ridge. This landscape is relatively open and exposed, and any tall vertical element will be highly visible, although local blocking will often apply. Most of the designated heritage assets in the wider area are located at such a distance to minimise the impact of the proposed turbine, or else the contribution of setting to overall significance is less important than other factors. Many of the buildings and monuments would be partly or wholly insulated from the effects of the proposed turbine by a combination of local blocking and the topography. However, the presence of a new, modern and visually intrusive vertical element in the landscape would impinge on a large number of heritage assets (negative/minor), even though only a small number would be more seriously affected (negative/moderate), these are; the Church of St Mary at Marystowe; Werrington Park House; Whitely, Lifton and Sydenham House, Marystowe. The Church of St Mary at Lifton will be the asset most seriously affected (negative/moderate to negative/substantial). The cumulative impact of wind turbines in this landscape should also be considered, although in this instance only the assets within the village of Lifton are likely to be impinged by a cumulative effect. With this in mind, the overall impact of the proposed turbine can be assessed as negative/minor to negative/moderate. The impact of the development on the buried archaeological resource will be permanent/irreversible.

Introduction Location: Ridgecombe Farm Parish: Lifton County: Devon NGR: 240425.83929 1.1 Project Background This report presents the results of a desk-based assessment, geophysical survey, walkover survey and historic visual impact assessment carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) at Ridgecombe Farm, Lifton, Devon (Figure 1). The work was commissioned by Nick Leaney of Aardvark Environmental Matters in order to identify any heritage assets in the wider area that might be affected by the installation of a single 500kW wind turbine. 1.2 Topographical and Geological Background The location of the proposed turbine is a field c.500m south-east of Ridgecombe Farm (see Figure 1). The proposed turbine would be positioned on a south facing slope, close to the top of a ridgeline at approximately 177m AOD. The fields slope down towards the north-east with intermittent ridges and plateaux. The soils of this area are the well-drained fine loamy soils of the Denbigh 2 Association (SSEW 1983). These overlie the chert bedrock of the Teign Chert Formation (BGS 2013). 1.3 Historical Background Ridgecombe lies within the eastern portion of the parish of Lifton, which is situated about four miles from Launceston, on the western border of Devon. This parish lies in the Hundred of Lifton and Deanery of Tavistock.

Davies National Rivers A h ority Environmental Protection Manager South West Region RIVER WATER QUALITY 1992 CLASSIFICATION BY DETERMINAND 1. INTRODUCTION River water quality is monitored in 34 catchments in the region. Samples are collected at a minimum frequency of once a month from 422 watercourses at 890 locations within the Regional Monitoring Network. Each sample is analysed for a range of chemical and physical determinands. These sample results are stored in the Water Quality Archive. A computerised system assigns a quality class to each monitoring location and associated upstream river reach. This report contains the results of the 1992 river water quality classifications for each determinand used in the classification process. 2. RIVER WATER QUALITY ASSESSMENT The assessment of river water quality is by comparison of current water quality against River Quality Objectives (RQO's) which have been set for many river lengths in the region. Individual determinands have been classified in accordance with the requirements of the National Water Council (NWC) river classification system which identifies river water quality as being one of five classes as shown in Table 1 below: TABLE 1 NATIONAL WATER COUNCIL - CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM CLASS DESCRIPTION 1A Good quality IB Lesser good quality 2 Fair quality 3 Poor quality 4 Bad quality The classification criteria used for attributing a quality class to each criteria are shown in Appendix 1.

The Fishing Rights offer some exciting water and an opportunity over an attractive stretch of the River Thrushel. The Rights run upstream from Tinhay Weir which accommodates the river depth gauge for the river. The 690 metres or thereabouts of double bank fishing offer some varied water for fish and anglers. There are sections of faster water from shallow riffle over gravel to deeper channels over rock. Between such runs are stretches of slow water and plenty of pools offering the potential for some excellent fishing. There is a larger pool at the junction with the River Wolf beyond which the single bank Fishing Rights extends for a further 223 metres or thereabouts on the northern (right hand) bank. The River Thrushel changes in character slightly from this junction pool, providing narrower and shorter sections of riffle, some shallower water with deeper pools on meandering bends.

    EEC/07/188/HQ Public Rights of Way Committee 10 July 2007 Definitive Map Review 2005-2007 Parish of Dunterton Report of the Director of Environment, Economy and Culture Please note that the following recommendation is subject to confirmation by the Public Rights of Way Committee before taking effect. Recommendation: It is recommended that the Committee note that to date there are no proposals for modifying the Definitive Map in the Parish of Dunterton. 1. Summary The report concerns the Definitive Map Review in the Parish of Dunterton. 2. Background The original survey under s. 27 of the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act, 1949, revealed no public rights of way to be recorded on the Definitive Map and Statement for Dunterton in the Tavistock Rural District. The reviews of the Definitive Map, under s. 33 of the 1949 Act, which commenced in the 1960s and 1970s but were never completed, produced no valid proposal for any addition, upgrading or deletion. The Limited Special Review of Roads Used as Public Paths (RUPPS), carried out in the 1970s, did not affect this parish. 3. Consultations The current review started in 2005 has consulted all statutory consultees and landowners. Proposals submitted to Devon County Council since the original Review were picked up, but produced no valid proposals for modification of the Definitive Map. General consultations have been carried out since January 2006 and the responses have been: County Councillor Mrs Marsh - no comment West Devon Borough Council - no comment Milton Abbot & Dunterton Parish Council - no comment British Horse Society - no comment Byways and Bridleways Trust - no comment Country Landowners' Association - no comment National Farmers' Union - no comment Open Spaces Society - no comment Ramblers' Association - no comment Trail Riders' Fellowship - no comment Cyclists Touring Club - no comment 4.

The place took its name from a ‘broad stone’, a stone which is still to be seen about 200 yards (183 metres) east of the church, in a hedge beside the lane on the far side of the Barton. It is about 11 x 6 feet (3.5 x 2 metres) and may have been a prehistoric standing stone or ‘menhir’. Bradstone has never been a big community, but it had some importance since it lay close to the ancient trackway into Cornwall which forded the Tamar where Greystone Bridge now stands; the trackway, now a lane, still forms the southern boundary of the parish. Snugly sited on a south-facing slope at the head of a combe, this settlement probably existed before the arrival of the Saxons, and the dedication of the church to St Nonna suggests that there was a Celtic community here. Tradition has it that St Nonna came from Pembrokeshire, where her son St David was born and where there is a well bearing her name just outside the town of St David’s, and that she lived for part of her life at Altarnun on Bodmin Moor where the church is dedicated to her; however, some doubt has been cast as to whether the mediaeval dedication of Bradstone church was to her.
