Abstract:		 This archaeological assessment was undertaken in accordance with best practice. The heritage assessment follows the guidance outlined in: Conservation Principles: policies and guidance for the sustainable management of the historic environment (English Heritage 2008), The Setting of Heritage Assets (Historic England 2015), Seeing History in the View (English Heritage 2011), Managing Change in the Historic Environment: Setting (Historic Scotland 2010), and with reference to Guidelines for Landscape and Visual Impact Assessment 3rd Edition (Landscape Institute 2013). The impact assessment also follows the guidance outlined in the Principles of Cultural Heritage Impact Assessment in the UK produced by CIfA, IHBC and IEMA in July 2021. The site lies off Mount Wise, a Major route through the town and it is south-west of the Parish Church of St. Michael in the centre of Newquay. The Grade II* Listed church of St. Michael was constructed here following the creation of the parish of Newquay from part of St. Columb Minor in 1882. Although there had been a chapel-of-ease in the settlement, it was felt the new Parish warranted its own church, and St. Michael’s was built between 1909 and 1911 in a Cornish Perpendicular style by Ninian Comper. A church hall, built in an Arts and Crafts style was constructed to the immediate north at a similar time. The Site - Priory Lodge was built as a vicarage for the New Church in 1923, becoming a Hotel in 1979, and was substantially extended in the 1980s. The proposed development would see the demolition of all buildings currently on the site and replacement with a four storey, 19 unit apartment building. Due to truncation of the site, direct impacts are likely to be limited. Priory Lodge is considered to be a building which adds value to the narrative of this area of Newquay and makes a significant contribution to the significance of the Grade II* Listed church through its setting. The indirect impacts on nearby designated heritage assets, namely the Grade II* Listed St Michael’s Church are considered moderate adverse. There is a potential constructional phase impact on the closest heritage assets in terms of aural and visual intrusion, though this impact will only be temporary. With this in mind, the overall impact of the proposed development can be assessed as Moderate Adverse. Recommendations and proposed mitigation measures have been made as part of this assessment. The impact of the development on any buried archaeological resource may be permanent and irreversible but is considered unlikely to encounter any archaeological features or deposits.
