Abstract:		 Magnitude Surveys was commissioned to assess the subsurface archaeological potential of a c. 1 ha area of land at Girvan, South Ayrshire, Scotland. A fluxgate magnetometer survey was successfully carried out and no anomalies of potential archaeological origin have been identified. The geophysical results primarily reflect a broad, varying scatter of strongly magnetic debris across most of the site against what appears to be a quieter magnetic background. This debris is considered to the possible result of construction activity associated with the construction of modern roads at the edges of the site. The responses from this debris may have obscured weaker responses from natural or anthropogenic features, if they were present. Magnetic disturbance was limited to responses from wire fencing at the edges of the survey area, and a buried service in the south of the site.
