Abstract:		 Wessex Archaeology were commissioned by May Gurney Ltd on behalf of the Environment Agency to carry out a detailed gradiometer survey of land proposed for a habitat creation scheme at Steart Point peninsula, near Bridgwater, Somerset, as part of an impact assessment and mitigation investigation in this area. The survey was carried out across approximately 10% of the scheme footprint, which identified a number of artefact concentrations throughout the scheme area, this phase of mitigation comprised a detailed gradiometer survey covering approximately 5.5 ha (as six separate areas labelled Areas A-F). Area A was the largest area and contained the greatest concentration of archaeological features including one probable and a second, possible, settlement enclosure. Agricultural features and divisions from multiple phases were observed in this area. Archaeological features were also observed in Areas C and D where drainage ditches were present in Area C and a possible settlement structure was present in the centre of Area D. Areas B, E and F appeared devoid of significant remains, with only probable agricultural features visible in the data. Along with the archaeological anomalies outlined above are a number of geological features thought to be remnant features that relate to the former wetland landscape. A number of the isolated anomalies interpreted as possible archaeology could be natural features such as hollows or tree throws
