Abstract:		 This report was commissioned by AC Archaeology Ltd on behalf of Hannard Developments Ltd and was prepared by Substrata as supporting information for a forthcoming planning application for a proposed residential development and associated infrastructure. A total of seventy magnetic anomaly groups were identified as relating to potential archaeology. Of these, three groups are likely to represent former field boundaries mapped on the 1841 Okehampton tithe map and on all Ordnance Survey maps from 1881 to at least 1991. Four groups are very likely to relate to a former Roman road associated with the Roman military fort to the west of the western boundary of the survey area. There are a number of clusters of possible pits or large postholes to the north and south of the likely Roman road. Two groups, just to the south of the likely Roman road, are typical of anomalies caused by the presence of in-situ heated deposits such as that produced by former kilns, hearths or furnaces. Two groups on the western side of the survey area may represent former ridge-and-furrow cultivation. The remaining anomaly groups characterised as representing potential archaeological deposits are linear, multilinear and curvilinear groups that typically represent former field boundaries, enclosures or similar structures of unknown date. A number of these groups are have different alignments to the current field system.
