Abstract:		 Cornwall Archaeological Unit undertook a programme of archaeological recording in advance of and during the demolition and re-building of a wall on land adjacent to The Woodlands, New Road, Cawsand, (NGR SX 43287 50514). This work was the subject of a planning condition (PA18/00935). A photographic record was made of the wall. A 25m length of damaged walling was demolished following which a trench 25m long x 4m wide and reaching a maximum depth of 3m was excavated to accommodate the foundations for the replacement wall. The adjoining settlements of Kingsand and Cawsand, respectively, originated in the later medieval and early post-medieval periods. The wall under consideration lies on the southwestern boundary of the Kingsand/Cawsand Conservation Area (DCO149) and is in close proximity to Cawsand Fort which is both a Scheduled Monument (DCO908) and a Grade II Listed Building (DCO3523) . Two stages in the construction of the wall were recorded. The earliest phase appears to have been as a revetment wall supporting the eastern side of New Road, possibly when it was built in the late 18th century as part of the 'Earls Drive' but more likely constructed as part of the 'Military Road' in the mid-19th century to support the building and operation of Cawsand Fort (completed in 1867). The second phase involved the raising in height of the wall, most likely to provide privacy for The Woodlands when that property was built in the late 1800s.
