Abstract:		 Survey at Long Furlong Farm detected a ring ditch originally excavated by John Pull (B9). This helped to position trenches in the area thought to contain possible Neolithic dwelling sites. Survey over these features, once surviving as visible hollows in the ground, failed to identify any clear anomalies of archaeological potential. The results of the subsequent excavations suggested that at least some of the features were natural in origin and others caused by fallen trees. It is likely that landscaping disturbance has destroyed settlement features that may originally have been insubstantial. A magnetic anomaly was seen to coincide with a visible hollow at Myrtlegrove Farm and the excavation that followed uncovered evidence of prehistoric occupation. A possible ring ditch visible on aerial photographs was also targeted but not detected; it may have been totally removed by ploughing. The results demonstrate that despite the destructive agriculture practises of the last fifty years archaeological features may still survive.
