Abstract:
Archaeological Surveys Ltd was commissioned by Cotswold Archaeology, on behalf of Oxford University Fixed Assets Ltd, to undertake a magnetometer survey of an area of land within the University Parks. The site has been outlined for the proposed development of a ground source heating system, which is likely to comprise 85 boreholes sunk to a depth of 50m.The survey effectively located numerous anomalies of archaeological potential within site. Most remarkable are four aligned ring ditches that are likely to indicate former Bronze Age funerary monuments. A square enclosure appears to partly cross one of the ring ditches, and the magnitude of the magnetic enhancement associated with the feature probably indicates the presence of burnt material within the ditch fill. The function of the enclosure, and its relationship with the ring ditch, cannot be confidently determined from the geophysics. Linear and rectilinear anomalies indicate a complex of cut features that relate to former land divisions, enclosures, etc. The anomalies probably represent features formed over a considerable period of time.
