Abstract:		 The site lies on the Pentire Peninsula, west of Newquay. Demolition of an existing bungalow and its associated staff accommodation was to be followed by development for housing. Planning consent was approved by Cornwall Council (08/01206) subject to a condition.This area has a proven high potential for archaeological discoveries, with previous investigations demonstrating the presence of extensive evidence for prehistoric and medieval settlement, artefacts and burials. Two Bronze Age barrows recorded on the Cornwall Historic Environment Record (HER) are located to the southwest of the site (Refs. 4130.3-4), whilst an enclosure (Ref. 55466) and a Late Iron Age/Romano-British round (enclosure Ref. 55452) are located to the east. Further archaeological sites and findspots are located along Pentire Road. The site measured 30m x 25m. A watching brief was maintained during the removal of concrete slabs and the excavation of the trenched building foundations for the new development . Localised site constraints (e.g. rubble heaps and containers) meant that not all the trenching could be completed. However, the removal of the concrete slabs and sub-base revealed the underlying shale natural subsoil and trenches where observed were noted to be cutting directly into the natural subsoil. No archaeological deposits and/or features were identified.
