Abstract:		 The results of archaeological excavations carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) at The Old Coalyard, Duporth Road, Charlestown, Cornwall during groundworks associated with the residential development of the site. The site is located within an historic industrial complex to the north of Charlestown harbour, off Charlestown and Duporth Roads. Historically the site has been used as an ore processing floor, with in situ cobbles situated against the north-eastern corner of the development area; a cooperage; and most recently a coalyard. The excavation identified a total of 14 archaeological features associated with the historic industrial use of the site. The earliest feature on the site is the 18th/19th century ore floor, the best-preserved part in the north-eastern corner of the site being retained in-situ; the western half showing significant disturbance and damage through later historic use of the site as a cooperage and coalyard. Two possible settling tanks identified in the north-western corner of the site may have been associated with this early use of the site, though may be later in date. Later 19th and 20th century use of the site as a cooperage was identified through a series of walls which outline part of the southern of two buildings depicted on 20th century mapping of the site; whilst a series of post-holes represent a corrugated iron structure erected on the site during the late 20th century when the site was utilised as a coalyard.
