Abstract:		 Allen Archaeology Limited was commissioned by PWA Planning to undertake a geophysical survey using magnetometry on land off Junction 11 M40/Daventry Road, Banbury, Oxfordshire, in support of a hybrid planning application for development on the site. Clearly visible on the site across Areas 1 to 4 are the remains of ridge and furrow cultivation, and the survey has produced results that correspond well with earthworks in the fields themselves. Within Area 1 former field boundaries and a trackway were also identified. At the southern end of Area 1 parallel linear features aligned roughly northwest to southeast may well represent cultivation trends, although it is impossible to tell whether these pre- or post-date the ridge and furrow. Within Area 4 a small linear/amorphous positive feature may represent a small pit or short ditch. This field was relatively magnetically quiet compared to the rest of the site, and this may be because it does not lie directly next to the M40. In Area 5 there are a number of modern service pipes along with a metallic structure towards the western end. There are also a number of linear and curvilinear positive features which could represent ditches, boundaries or settlement activity. There are also a large number of amorphous positive features which could represent small surface mining, pits, soil-filled hollows or former ponds.
