Abstract:		 South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) was commissioned by Ivan Tomlin of Planning for Results Ltd. (the Agent) on behalf of The Glendorgal Hotel (the Client) to undertake a desk-based assessment and historic setting assessment for Glendorgal Hotel and lands associated, at Newquay, Cornwall in advance of proposed development at the site. The Glendorgal Hotel started as a seaside cottage built by Francis Rodd IV of Trebartha in c.1850. Sold in 1873 to Arthur Pendarves Vivian and substantially altered, it was sold to the Tangye Family in 1882. They extended the house and beautified its setting, making its grounds an integral and picturesque part of the wider setting of the house. After 1950 the house became a hotel, and the original building surrounded and partly over-built with later 20th century additions and its internal spaces reordered. Works in 1850 exposed a 'cinerary urn', and its Bronze Age barrow and possible early Iron Age structure were excavated in 1957. The place-name element dorgal is Cornish for cellar or vault, and may refer to the barrow, fissures in the cliff, the narrow cave below the Hotel, or archaeological features as yet unknown. This barrow is one of a number located on these cliffs and Trevelgue Head to the north is a large Iron Age and Romano-British promontory fort. The historic house is set in a deep terrace with extensive modern development to the east and south, and the access road, car park and platform to the north-west have been extensively landscaped, with low archaeological potential. To the west, the coastal slope appears largely undisturbed and in this area the potential for buried archaeological deposits remains high.
