Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	The results of a desk-based appraisal, walkover survey and impact assessment (HIA) carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. at Land on Chegwyns Hill, Foxhole, St. Stephen-in-Brannel, Cornwall, as part of the pre-planning submission for a proposed residential development. The proposed development would be located on agricultural land on the eastern edge of the settlement of Foxhole. The name of the field (The Outer New Inclosure) and historic map sources imply it was enclosed in the early 19th century from open waste. The associated dwelling was called Julian's Cottage, occupied by a William Best but owned by Lady Anne Grenville. The desk-based appraisal and walkover survey did not identify any heritage assets on the site itself, and its location on the slopes above any putative medieval settlement/fieldsystem, but below the zone in which funerary remains might be expected, means its archaeological potential is likely to be low. There are two Scheduled monuments within 1km of the proposed site: the hillfort and cairn on St Stephen's Beacon, and a round on the south-west side of the Beacon. Other designated heritage assets in the wider area are located at such a distance to minimise the impact of the proposed development, or else the contribution of setting to overall significance is less important than other factors. The industrial character of the landscape, and the landscape context of those buildings and monuments, is such that they would be partly or wholly insulated from the effects of the proposed development. The only designated heritage asset likely to be affected in any appreciable way (negative/minor) is the Scheduled hillfort and cairn at St Stephen's Beacon. With this in mind, the overall impact of the proposed development can be assessed as negligible. The impact of the development on the buried archaeological resource is permanent/irreversible, but the likelihood encountering significant archaeological deposits is deemed to be low.
