Abstract:		 A linear zone on the eastern edge of the former RAF Upper Heyford airbase was subject to geophysical survey by Archaeological Surveys Ltd. The survey zone covered the potential route of a new access road related to redevelopment of the southern bomb store site. The survey area lies immediately adjacent to the line of Aves Ditch, a prehistoric tribal boundary and the survey. Resistivity survey was carried out within the airbase due to numerous sources of magnetic disturbance. Magnetometry was carried out over agricultural land lying within the survey corridor immediately outside the perimeter fence. The results of the magnetometry demonstrated the presence of widespread magnetic debris relating to agricultural activity and an area of made ground or the site of former buildings. A small number of linear anomalies of uncertain origin were located. The resistivity indicated variability likely to relate to shallow solid geology and ground disturbance caused by construction of features within the airbase during its operational lifetime.
