Abstract:		 Magnetometry was carried out by Archaeological Surveys Ltd within two pasture fields near Stourscombe, Launceston in Cornwall. The results indicate the presence of a series of enclosures at the head of a shallow combe within the eastern part of the site. A number of pits and linear features are also located within the enclosures. The movement of magnetically enhanced material downslope from the enclosures into the combe can also be seen. Elsewhere the site contains numerous weakly positive linear, rectilinear and some curvilinear responses and while these may relate to soil filled cracks within the underlying geology, some appear to extend towards and join the enclosures and cut features should be considered for some of the anomalies. Evidence of curving strip field boundaries can also be seen within the western field and these are associated with ridge and furrow cultivation. In the eastern field there are two series of ridge and furrow separated by a former field boundary.
