Abstract:		 A detailed gradiometry survey was conducted over approximately 16.7 hectares of grassland. Several features of archaeological origin have been identified. A possible Iron Age/Romano-British round and associated causewayed enclosure with linear anomalies have been detected. A rectilinear enclosure and associated pits have been identified, and given that the site lies within an area of Anciently Enclosed Land, a prehistoric origin cannot be ruled out. Additional linear anomalies and possible pits may be archaeological in origin, though may also be natural. Further linear anomalies and field boundaries may represent different phases of activity, and may be associated with possible field systems of nearby early medieval settlements/farmsteads. The number of field boundaries and evidence of ridge and furrow suggests the site has been largely used for agricultural purposes since the medieval period. The remaining features are natural or modern and include underground services, magnetic disturbance, and magnetic spikes.
