Abstract:
Headland Archaeology (UK) Ltd undertook a geophysical (magnetometer) survey of a 40 hectare site, north-west of Burton upon Trent, to inform planning proposals for a proposed residential development. The survey has successfully evaluated the site identifying anomalies consistent with medieval and post-medieval agricultural activity which is also recorded on the Staffordshire HER and which had been identified in an earlier desk-based Archaeological Appraisal. This activity may be of local historical significance but is unlikely to be considered as having any more than a low archaeological value. No anomalies of definite archaeological potential have been identified by the survey with only a single isolated cluster of anomalies being ascribed any archaeological potential. These may be due to soil-filled archaeological features although a topographical and/or agricultural origin is considered more likely. Modern agricultural activity restricted the survey area locally and also resulted in large areas of magnetic disturbance across the southern part of the site. This disturbance could mask the response from archaeological features, if present, within these areas. However, on balance, considering the absence of archaeological anomalies across the rest of the site, this is thought to be unlikely and overall the archaeological potential of the site is considered to be low.
