Abstract:		 A detailed magnetometer survey was carried out by Archaeological Surveys Ltd at Wick Farm, Heddington Wick, Wiltshire. The survey was carried out as a condition of planning permission related to the construction of a large pond. The pond lies 450m east of the Roman town of Verlucio and 140m south of the Wansdyke and Roman road from Speen to Bath. The survey was undertaken within the pond field and the fields immediately to the north and west. The results demonstrate that each of the fields contain a number of anomalies, with Area 1 (the pond field) containing negative linear and rectilinear anomalies that may relate to former bank/ditch features, and a number of pit-like responses. Area 2 to the west, lies within 60m of the Roman town of Verlucio and although it contained a number of weakly positive linear and discrete anomalies that may relate to linear and rectilinear ditches and pits, their weak response and indistinct form prevents confident interpretation. Area 3 lies to the north of the pond field and is bounded along the northern edge by the Wansdyke. A 5m wide negative response, flanked by two parallel positive linear anomalies, appears to relate to the remains of a Roman road which has a number of linear and rectilinear anomalies parallel with it, but also evidence for later cutting and re-utilisation by other linear and rectilinear features. The area also contains a number of positive and negative anomalies which have some association with extant linear bank and ditch features.
