Abstract:		 Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Laing O'Rourke Infrastructure Services to undertake a detailed gradiometer survey of land near Church Wilne Reservoir, Derbyshire, ahead of a proposed development. The site is located in southeast Derbyshire close to its borders with Leicestershire and Nottinghamshire occupying agricultural land spanning seven fields and is located close to Church Wilne Reservoir. A previous desk-based assessment (DBA; Wessex Archaeology 2013) indicated that there was potential for Romano-British and prehistoric remains along the site. The gradiometer survey was conducted using a Bartington Grad 601-2 dual fluxgate gradiometer instrument and has demonstrated the presence of a limited number of anomalies of possible archaeological interest, along with regions of probable modern intrusion, modern services and regions of geological responses. The majority of the anomalies of possible archaeological interest are seen within the southern portions of the site and comprise a number of large pit-like responses and several linear anomalies. Whilst none is conclusively archaeological in origin, such an interpretation cannot be ruled out entirely. The northernmost and easternmost extents of the survey are characterized by strong magnetic disturbance. In places, linear anomalies typical of modern services can be seen, although the central portion of the site shows responses more consistent with the dumping of modern material, perhaps demolition debris.
