Abstract: |
Detailed magnetometry was carried out over 9.8ha within the former Twelve Oaks Golf Course, Highworth, Swindon. The results from a small field forming the southern part of the site revealed a continuation of Iron Age and early Roman settlement located by previous surveys further to the south. There are a number of ring ditches and rectilinear enclosures covering at least 1ha. Further north there are a small number of weakly positive, poorly defined, linear and curvilinear anomalies which appear to have been truncated by ridge and furrow and could relate to further cut features. Evidence for modern ground disturbance and make-up has also been located, along with former ridge and furrow. |
