Kit Hill Country Park, Callington, Cornwall: Archaeological Assessment and Management Plan

Kit Hill Country Park, part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site Cornwall and West Devon Mining Landscape, is identified as a significant location with numerous heritage assets of national and regional importance. The study reveals that the site's archaeological features, including Bronze Age burial monuments and medieval mining remnants, are under threat from vegetation overgrowth and high pedestrian traffic in popular areas. Conducted by Wessex Archaeology, this assessment combines earlier surveys, a 2015 field survey, and documentary research to prioritize conservation actions. The findings highlight the need for targeted interventions to preserve these heritage assets, pending resource availability.
