Abstract:		 HE Projects were commissioned by Mr Ash Theasby to undertake an archaeological watching brief for the proposed redevelopment of a site at St Newlyn East. Prior to works the site was occupied by a building awaiting demolition. The site is located within the core of the medieval village settlement of St Newlyn East, close to the medieval Parish Church of St Newlina. The development was subject to a planning condition (PA12/08061). Dan Ratcliffe (Historic Environment Planning Advice Officer, Cornwall Council) produced an Archaeological Brief for recording (19/03/2013). Andy Jones (Archaeologist Team Leader, Historic Environment Projects) produced a Written Scheme of Investigation (WSI). This report has shown that no significant archaeological remains were present on site when the watching brief took place. Stray medieval finds might have been expected, given the central location of the site within the medieval core of St Newlyn East and the depth of recorded garden soils. However, none were present and this may represent the dumping of domestic waste including pottery on the adjacent fields as a form of manuring and waste disposal - practice found across Cornwall. It is probable that the pattern of construction, demolition and reconstruction on site over the last few hundred years, including that of this latest build has scoured away all evidence for the site's historic development and use.
