Abstract:		 A rapid walkover survey was carried out in response to proposed changes to the route of a pipeline. The exact route was not known at the time of the survey, but it was to cross fields to the north of a road. Two pasture fields were examined, and it was noted that both showed signs of ploughing, and contained evidence of sub-division in the form of slight ditches. One had a terraced edge on its western margin, whilst the other featured a curved terrace which resembled a lynchet of a former smaller field or enclosure. It was noted that such fields were typical of later prehistoric and Romano-British settlement and agricultural activity. A boggy, unimproved pasture field showed no evidence of earthworks, whilst a wooded area at the western end of the pipeline route contained some built structures, including a large brick-lined pit, relating to a nearby farm. It was concluded that the nature of the threat to the earthworks was unclear without a definite pipeline route, and that if the route followed the line of the road closely, keeping to the southern margins of the fields, then the earthwork within the second field could be avoided.
