Abstract:		 South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) was commissioned to undertake a desk-based assessment and geophysical survey on land on Belle Hill, Dodbrooke, Kingsbridge, Devon in advance of the application for planning for the residential development of the site and for related off site analysis and reporting. The site is located across two fields on the northern fringe of the Dodbrooke district of Kingsbridge, off of Belle Hill. The desk-based assessment did not indicate the presence of any significant features or deposits on the site directly; although, two very small temporary structures have stood along the central boundary to the site in circa 1886 and several prehistoric/Romano-British artefacts and enclosures have been recovered and identified within 1km of the site. The geophysical survey identified twelve groups of anomalies including enclosures, field systems or leats and boundaries associated with the existing medieval to post-medieval field system. There is also potential for discrete features associated with the undated linear anomalies. Due to the presence of Bronze Age and late Iron Age enclosures and findspots in the area identified in the desk-based assessment it is possible that the geophysical anomalies on the site relate to these periods. Any development of the site would be likely to disturb potentially significant archaeological deposits and a programme of further archaeological works, such as evaluation trenching is recommended in order to inform mitigation strategies.
