Abstract:		 Dolton is a Domesday manor with likely early medieval origins and the site is within land characterised by the HLC as based on medieval strip fields, which corresponds to the field layout seen on the historic mapping. The site is adjacent to a possible medieval village, although it does not appear to have been proven, which has been overlaid or destroyed by a modern housing development. The geophysical survey identified anomalies associated with historic field boundaries and medieval strip fields as well as modern disturbance and services. An undated ditch-type anomaly was also identified. It is possible that archaeological features or deposits have been obscured from the survey by the area of disturbed ground or debris in the north-east corner of the site; like-wise deposits in this area have been truncated by the modern disturbance. The eastern field of the proposed development site could not be surveyed, although it is likely to contain evidence of drainage associated with a 21st century pond feature. Although there are no ostensibly significant archaeological deposits or features identified on the site in the geophysical survey, the potential for small discrete features is present and the potential for features associated with medieval activity or settlement around Dolton is high.
