Abstract:		 A detailed gradiometer survey was conducted over land near Pisky Farm, Playing Place, Cornwall. The project was commissioned by Coastline Housing Ltd with the aim of establishing the presence, or otherwise, and nature of detectable archaeological features on the site ahead of a proposed development. The site comprises two arable fields to the east of the A39, approximately 3.9km SSW of Truro and occupies an area of relatively flat land on top of a ridge. The gradiometer survey covered c. 1ha and has demonstrated the presence of anomalies of definite, probable and possible archaeological interest within the survey area, along with numerous linear and curvilinear trends. Two pit-like anomalies were identified along with a number of linear anomalies that may represent former field boundaries or enclosures. These possible field boundaries do not appear on historic maps and therefore may be of archaeological potential. Weak linear and curvilinear trends were observed throughout the dataset, although their origins are unclear. Other responses are characteristic of geological and agricultural processes.
