Abstract:		 Magnitude Surveys was commissioned to assess the subsurface archaeological potential of a c.36.51ha area of land at the M5 J10, Tewkesbury, Gloucestershire. A fluxgate gradiometer survey was successfully completed across the area, although c. 5.55ha was not surveyed due to unsuitable ground conditions. Anomalies of probable and possible archaeological origin have been identified across the northern part of the survey area, interpreted as a potential enclosed multiphase settlement complex of possible Romano-British date, with potential Late Prehistoric origins. It also appears that the ability of the geophysical survey to determine the full extent of the potential complex may have been affected by fluvial processes. Anomalies interpreted as zones of possible extraction, and related activities, of unknown date have been identified along the bank of the River Chelt. Historical and modern agricultural activity is evident across the survey area, with multiple ridge and furrow regimes identified, along with modern ploughing and drains. The impact of modern activity on the site is limited to magnetic interference around field perimeters and that caused by buried and overhead services.
