Abstract:		 A detailed magnetometer survey was carried out by Archaeological Surveys Ltd, within a single field at Catsbrain Farm, Kingsdown, Swindon as part of an archaeological investigation into the site ahead of a proposed mixed use development. The results show a cluster of discrete positive anomalies that appear to relate to pit-like features within the eastern part of the site. However it is not clear if these are associated with possible former quarrying or if they relate to cut features with archaeological potential. A number of positive linear anomalies were also located, and these lack a coherent morphology or layout within the site. It is therefore not possible to determine if they relate to naturally formed features, such as cracks within limestone, or if they relate to cut, ditch-like features with archaeological potential. The results also show that the site was originally split by a former field boundary, with evidence of land drainage within each of the former land parcels.
