Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	This report presents the results of historic building recording carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) at 111-113 Charlestown Road, Charlestown, St. Austell, Cornwall, in advance of the redevelopment of the site. The site comprises a group of standing and partly-ruined buildings dating from the late 18th century through to the mid 20th century set around a central courtyard. This report presents the results of building recording, evaluation trenching and monitoring prior to the development taking place. The earliest building at the southern end of the site, constructed on dressed ashlar granite blocks but recorded as a barn in 1825, was probably a port office and warehouse for the Duporth Estate. The building was subsequently converted into a mill with the addition of a wheelhouse. Further outbuildings were added to the north and east, most likely functioning as sheds or stores, with a dance hall added in the 1930s The site is of local, regional and international significance. The general appearance of the site, with its historic stone walls fronting onto Charlestown Road, contributes to the historic character of the World Heritage Site. Its historical significance lies in its early history and its relationship to the development of the port at Charlestown, with mixed use as office/warehouse. Only the former office/barn/mill building (B1) holds any real architectural significance in its own right, although the courtyard of buildings within its curtilage provides its historic setting.
