Abstract:		 This report was commissioned by the Devon County Council Environment Group. It presents the results of an archaeological magnetometer and resistance survey at the above site. The survey was commissioned after the reporting of finds by metal detectorists. The magnetic and resistance responses were sufficient to be able to differentiate anomalies representing possible archaeological features. Six magnetic anomaly groups and six resistance anomaly groups were mapped as representing potential archaeological deposits and features. Three resistance anomalies have some potential to represent archaeological pits but are more likely to represent natural deposits. The were mapped primarily because of their proximity to two find spots. There were no other clear relationships between the find spots and magnetic or resistance anomalies in the survey data sets. The magnetic data contained evidence for a possible curvilinear feature such as a ditch and three linear deposits which coincide with the location of a former field boundary recorded on the 1840 tithe map but not on later maps. These anomalies may equally represent cultivation traces or natural deposits. The former field boundary was also represented in the resistance data with the same caveats. Two reasonably well defined areas of enhanced magnetic responses may indicate archaeological deposits such as filled pits or surfaces but natural origins are equally likely.
