Abstract:		 In June 2016, Archaeological Solutions Ltd carried out a magnetic gradiometer survey on 4.1 hectares of land at Royston Road, Barkway, Hertfordshire. The survey identified two possible enclosures, one in the north-western sector of the site (1) and another towards the centre of the survey area (4). Both had evidence of possible internal features. A further possible ring ditch or pennanular enclosure (5) was identified in the eastern part of the survey. A strongly positive linear anomaly (2) running 10m N-S across possible enclosure (1) may be associated. Two parallel weakly positive linear anomalies (3) may represent part of a trackway close to enclosure (1). Two other linear anomalies (6 and 7) were present in the data, as well as three large sub-circular anomalies, potentially indicative of quarrying activity (9). Three discrete, high amplitude anomalies are synonymous with possible burning events and may represent past industrial activity (8).
