Abstract:		 Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Mrs S. Holmes to conduct a detailed gradiometer survey over land at Littles Manor Farm, off Ashford Road, Sheldwich, Kent, with the aim of establishing the extent of a possible high status Roman building previously identified on the site. The site comprises an arable field to the north of Littles Manor Farm house off Ashford Road, and occupies gradual sloping land with a clump of trees focused on a disused pit in the southern part of the site. The gradiometer survey was conducted using a Bartington Grad 601-2 dual fluxgate gradiometer instrument and has demonstrated the presence archaeological anomalies including those of probable and possible archaeological interest within the survey area, along with areas of increased magnetic response. A number of ditch-like features have been identified within the northern and western areas of the survey grid, with two anomalies possibly representing the opposing corners of a rectilinear feature, possibly a building. To the south west of this feature, a possible trackway leading towards a second rectilinear feature has also been identified. Weak linear trends have also been observed which may be continuations of the archaeological features. A number of small discrete anomalies have also been identified across the survey area, some of which may be pits. The geophysical survey has demonstrated a high potential for archaeological remains, specifically within the northern and western areas of the survey grid.
