Abstract:		 A programme of archaeological investigative works was carried out for Cumbrae Parish Church in support of the erection of a new church building on ground adjacent to Bute Terrace, Millport, North Ayrshire. The archaeological works were designed to determine the archaeological potential of the development area and hence inform the specification for mitigation of the impact on the archaeological remains within the development area. The archaeological investigative works consisted of an intrusive evaluation which was designed to assess an 8% sample of the proposed development area. The works were carried out between 5th and the 6th of September 2016, with a total of 8 trenches excavated. The works identified a truncated posthole and a possible hearth of possible prehistoric date as well as an assemblage of lithics and 19th to 20th century ceramics, glass and metal. Agricultural activity in the form of 19th or 20th century ceramic and stone drains were also identified within the site.
