Abstract:
The survey was commissioned by Phoenix Consulting Archaeology Ltd on behalf of Terrace Hill (Northam) Ltd). The survey is part of a programme of archaeological works commissioned in support of an outline planning application for a residential development. The proposed development site was the subject of an Archaeological Desk-Based Assessment completed in 2014. The magnetic contrast across the area was sufficient to be able to differentiate between anomalies representing possible archaeological features and background magnetic responses. One-hundred-and-thirty-one magnetic anomaly groups were identified as possibly representing archaeological deposits or features, the majority of which are fragmented linear and curvilinear groups that are most likely to relate to past field boundaries, field tracks and other enclosures of unknown date and more than one phase of land management. Thirty-one of these anomaly groups represent former field boundaries and tracks mapped on the 1839 Northam Tithe map and on later historical Ordnance Survey maps. On the western side of the site three groups may reflect archaeological deposits in the form of large pits or natural deposits and one of these may represent a larger structure such as a mine shaft or well. One group could represent a line of pits or a disrupted linear deposit such as a ploughed-out ditch. Two groups could represent Prehistoric archaeological deposits in the form of ring-ditches or round-houses. On the central and south-eastern parts of the site there is some evidence supporting the presence of a former rectilinear field system or other collection of relatively small enclosures.
