Abstract:		 A detailed gradiometer survey was conducted over land at Old Sarum Airfield, Salisbury, Wiltshire. The project was commissioned by Feilden + Mawson LLP on behalf of Old Sarum Airfield Ltd with the aim of establishing the presence, or otherwise, and nature of detectable archaeological features on the site. This project was part of an ongoing programme of archaeological works being undertaken to inform development in three areas along the airfield perimeter (Areas A-C). The geophysical survey reported here investigated Area C, Areas A and B having been surveyed previously. The survey was undertaken in three phases 5th-8th August, 4th September and 20th October 2014. The gradiometer survey covered 12.3ha and has demonstrated the presence of anomalies of archaeological interest, along with ploughing, some trends of uncertain origin and several modern services. A large amount of ferrous features and several modern services are visible close to the village of Ford. The data also revealed the continuation of the Wessex Linear, along with a curving track and two rectilinear enclosures. A number of small anomalies could represent pits; however these may prove to be natural features as they form no discernible pattern to suggest settlement related activity. The remaining anomalies detected appear to be either agricultural in origin or to relate to features of the historic airfield.
