Abstract:
Headland Archaeology (UK) Ltd undertook a geophysical (magnetometer) survey covering approximately 60 hectares east of Swindon, Wiltshire, to inform future archaeological strategy in advance of a proposed development. The survey has identified an area of probable industrial activity, including five probable kilns, close to the disused nineteenth century Wiltshire and Berkshire Canal. Further south, close to the River Cole, at least five circular anomalies have been identified, perhaps indicating round barrows. Elsewhere anomalies consistent with historic agricultural activity including ridge and furrow cultivation have been identified across the site which may be of local historical interest. Therefore, based solely on the results of the geophysical survey, the archaeological potential of the site is assessed as low but locally moderate to high in the vicinity of the area of kilns and possible barrows.
