Abstract:		 In October 2014, Britannia Archaeology Ltd undertook a detailed fluxgate gradiometer survey over c.8 hectares of land in one agricultural field, covering the footprint of a proposed new school. A range of anomalies were recorded during the survey, some of which have a potential archaeological origin. Isolated dipolar responses were most common and probably relate to demolition material associated with the former airfield, or ferrous material introduced through manuring. A broad linear area of magnetic enhancement running north-west to south-east is likely to be of geological derivation. Three linear areas of magnetic disturbance were recorded in the dataset and interpreted as demolition material of the former runways. Two dis-continuous strong positive linear trends are likely to be remnant field boundaries removed to create either a larger field or to open up the airfield itself. A curving dis-continuous positive linear trend and two other short linear anomalies are of possible archaeological origin, further archaeological investigations should ascertain a derivation. Sixteen positive discrete anomalies were recorded that are indicative of archaeological rubbish pits, however a more modern origin cannot be ruled out. One thermo-remnant response recorded in between the curvilinear anomalies may prove to be an area of burning or burnt material backfilled within the potential ditch itself.
