Abstract:		 Magnitude Surveys was commissioned to assess the archaeological subsurface potential an area of c. 1.5 ha of land containing Scheduled Civil War defences (Monument No: 1021389) at Bury Field Common, in Newport Pagnell. The survey was specifically intended to identify the extent of any surviving sub-surface structural elements or features associated with the defences within and adjacent to the Scheduled area. A fluxgate magnetometer survey and subsequent targeted ground-penetrating radar (GPR) survey were both successfully completed, and a number of previously unrecorded features associated with the defences have been identified. Specifically, the use of GPR has helped to better characterise potential features relating to the construction and disuse or demolishing of the outer bank and ditch or enceinte. The magnetometer survey has identified no further anomalies of possible archaeological origin to the west of these earthworks. In the south of the site, part of a possible bastion feature, recorded as possible disturbed earthworks and visible in recent LiDAR data, were surveyed with both methods. Not all of this earthwork feature could be surveyed due to variations in ground conditions, limiting the available context for interpretation. Here, while multiple anomalies were identified, none could be confidently interpreted as potential features relating to the defences, as they may equally relate to subsequent extraction activity.
