Abstract:		 Headland Archaeology (UK) Ltd undertook a geophysical (magnetometer) survey covering approximately 14.5 hectares on agricultural land east of the village of Lydney, Gloucestershire, to provide further information to inform mitigation proposals required by Condition 26 attached to planning permission granted by Forest of Dean Council (Ref. P1097/08/OUT). The survey has identified archaeological anomalies suggestive of ditches, a rectangular enclosure, possible structures and areas of burning all of which are confined to the NE corner of the survey area. The anomalies corroborate and enhance the results of a previous programme of trial trenching in which Roman building material and iron-working material was recovered. Elsewhere, anomalies have been detected which reflect the former agricultural landscape as depicted on historical Ordnance Survey maps, whilst traces of earlier agriculture in the form of ridge and furrow cultivation is also identified. No anomalies were detected to confirm or negate the presence of a Roman road which is recorded as traversing the north of the survey area in the Gloucestershire Historic Environment Record. On this basis, the archaeological potential of the site is considered to be locally high in the vicinity of the archaeological anomalies but low across the remainder of the site.
