Abstract:
A geophysical survey, comprising detailed magnetometry, was carried out within a single field at Queen Camel in Somerset. The eastern part of the field has been subject to previous geophysical surveys and evaluation and contains a Roman villa which lies within a complex of rectilinear enclosures. This part of the site was re-surveyed to be able to place anomalies located within the rest of the field in context. The results demonstrate the presence of structural remains and surrounding enclosure ditches associated with the villa in the eastern part of the site. A number of discrete positive responses lie to the west of the villa enclosure and it is possible their morphology could indicate an association with burials. Within the central part of the site there is evidence for further enclosures on a slightly different orientation to the villa complex which have been truncated by a trackway that is associated with the villa. These enclosures could relate to an earlier prehistoric field system and a more complex enclosure further to the north could be associated. In the western part of the site there are numerous rectilinear enclosures flanking the trackway and revealing several phases of development. Some of these contain and truncate earlier ring ditches associated with round houses.
