Abstract:
This report presents the results of an archaeological magnetometer survey at the above site, hereafter referred to as the survey area. It has been prepared for AC Archaeology Ltd on behalf of clients. The magnetic responses across the survey area were sufficient to be able to differentiate between anomalies representing possible archaeological features and background magnetic responses. Twenty-one magnetic anomaly groups were mapped as representing potential archaeological deposits or features. One of these groups may represent the remains of a World War 2 anti-aircraft battery emplacement recorded in the Devon County Council Historic Environment Record (HER) entry MDV58401. Another group coincides with a crop mark recorded in the HER as a potential Bronze Age ring ditch (HER MDV37366). Two groups represent former field boundaries recorded on historic maps between 1840 and at least 1982. One anomaly group may represent part of a former rectangular enclosure and another group almost certainly represents a rectangular enclosure spatially close to the potential ring ditch. Five groups are mapped as possible large pits, four of these being associated with the latter potential enclosure and one with the ring ditch. The other anomaly groups mapped as representing potential archaeological deposits and features have patterns that typically represent former field and enclosure boundaries of unknown date and possibly of more than one phase of past land management.
