Abstract:		 An archaeological strip, map and sample was undertaken by ISCA Archaeology at Land at Treloweth Lane, St Erth, Hayle, Cornwall, prior to the development of 44 new residential dwellings and associated landscaping and services. An area 2310m2 was stripped down to natural substrate using a mechanical excavator fitted with a toothless bucket. The archaeological programme of works identified a total of 28 archaeological features which broadly validated, an expanded upon, the results of the previous geophysical survey and evaluation trenching within the site. The archaeology present was located to the northern half of the excavated area. These features indicated possible dispersed prehistoric settlement or agricultural activity consisting of stock enclosures, gullies, postholes, and pits are likely to have formed temporary structures associated with animal husbandry and prehistoric settlement activity, which is also evident within the wider landscape. Bronze Age pottery was recovered from four of the archaeological features. Charcoal from several features is significant in that charcoal remains from Bronze Age deposits across Cornwall is at present limited. Also significant is an unusual early post Romano-British date from an isolated posthole located to the far east of the SMS area.
