Abstract:
A detailed magnetometer was carried out within a 2ha parcel of land at Catsbrain Farm, Swindon. The survey is additional to one carried out previously on land immediately to the east and has been referred to as Site B to differentiate it. The results of the current survey indicate that the site has been subject to intensive field drainage, with several series of land drains evident. A number of positive linear anomalies do not appear to conform to any coherent pattern, and while some may also relate to land drainage, the responses do appear as possible cut, ditch-like features. The site also contains evidence for ridge and furrow and more modern cultivation. A linear zone of magnetic debris has also been located in the western part of the survey area, and this may relate to dumped magnetically thermoremnant material, possibly associated with the dismantled Swindon and Highworth Branch Line that bounds the western edge of the site.
