Abstract:		 Headland Archaeology (UK) Ltd undertook a geophysical (magnetometer) survey covering 26 hectares on land south of Perry Court Farm, Faversham, to support an outline planning permission for a mixed residential and commercial development and inform forthcoming archaeological strategy. Well-defined rectilinear anomalies covering 0.5 hectares and forming at least two conjoined rectangular enclosures have been identified close to the south-western boundary of the site. The enclosures are oblique to the existing and historical pattern of land division and therefore an archaeological origin is considered likely. High magnitude pit-type anomalies within the south of the site may be of interest, perhaps being due to localised chalk extraction. A possible dene-hole which was observed during the course of the fieldwork and a back-filled chalk pit to the south-west of Perry Court Farm, and in the surrounding landscape, are testament to this type of activity in the locality. Elsewhere, anomalies have been identified which are due to the former and existing agricultural use of the land, modern services and near-surface geological variation. On the basis of the geophysical survey, the archaeological potential across the majority of the site is considered to be low with a moderate to high potential ascribed to the conjoined enclosures.
