We report on the detection of the likely progenitor to Nova Cygni 2006 = V2362 Cyg (IAUC #8697, #8698, ATel #792) using images from the INT Photometric H-Alpha Survey (IPHAS; http://www.iphas.org). The field containing the classical nova was observed as part of our galactic plane survey on Aug. 3rd 2004 between 02:58-3:42UT using the Isaac Newton Telescope at La Palma Observatory. No clouds were present and seeing was stable, delivering a 1" image-quality sampled with 0.33" per CCD pixel.
