Abstract:		 Headland Archaeology (UK) Ltd undertook a geophysical (magnetometer) survey of a 235 hectare site immediately east of Lutterworth, Leicestershire, to provide information on the archaeological potential of the site, identified as a Strategic Development Area (SDA), prior to the submission of a planning application for a proposed residential and local infrastructure development. The survey has identified eight areas of archaeological potential (AAA), in the southern and central parts of the SDA, on higher and prominent positions overlooking the River Swift and its tributary. Clusters of enclosures of differing size and morphology (some with evidence of settlement activity, including roundhouses) trackways and round barrows of likely later prehistoric and early Romano-British origin have been identified. In AAA1, AAA2, AAA4 and AAA5 the level of archaeological activity is greater than indicated from cropmarks and previous geophysical surveys, whilst the archaeological features identified in AAA3, AAA6, AAA7 and AAA8 were not previously known. The survey has also identified numerous discrete anomalies due to geological variations in the soil as well as linear trend anomalies caused by medieval and post-medieval agricultural activity over the entirety of the site. Overall, the survey has successfully evaluated the archaeological potential of the site. On the basis of the survey the southern and central area of the SDA is assessed as of high archaeological potential, while in the north the potential is assessed as medium to low.
