Abstract:		 Cornwall Archaeological Unit was commissioned by Mr Steve Peacock, Director of the design Management Partnership on behalf of St Austell Brewery to carry out a programme of archaeological recording during the redevelopment of the Chain Locker and Shipwright's Arms, Quay Street, Falmouth, TR11 3HH, a Grade II Listed Building (DCO5050; SW 81082 32579, Figs 1 and 2). The recording (a watching brief during groundworks) was required as part of condition 3 imposed on the approval of planning application PA16/08204. Following initial site works it became apparent that some historic fabric would need to be removed to make the building safe. Consultation between the client and two of Cornwall Council's Senior Development Officers (Historic Environment) resulted in the agreement that some historic building recording was necessary. This included the recording of an exposed section of historic partition wall in the Chain Locker, the early first and second floor structures where visible in the front part of the Chain Locker and roof structures where visible in the Chain Locker. At a later date during the works a decision was made to take down the front wall of the building as it had become unstable. CAU were asked to make a record of the interior elevation before it was removed. This report outlines the results of the archaeological watching brief and building recording. The results of the work have revealed that parts of the building are likely to date to the 17th century when the Town Quays were first built. It has also revealed that major phases of remodeling occurred in 18th, 19th and 20th centuries.
