Abstract:		 Headland Archaeology (UK) Ltd undertook a geophysical (magnetometer) survey covering 3 hectares to the south of Horseheath Road, Linton, to provide information about the archaeological potential of the site in advance of a proposed residential development. The site is located in a rich archaeological landscape with a possible Anglo-Saxon cemetery located 100m to the south. A clear ring ditch has been identified close to the southern site boundary, locating the remains of a probable ploughed-down barrow although no direct correlation with the possible Saxon cemetery can be inferred. Within the south-west corner of the site a short ditch and two pit-type anomalies have been ascribed some archaeological potential. Elsewhere, the survey data is dominated by patterns of broad sinuous parallel anomalies which are caused by soil-filled fissures in the chalk bedrock. There is no indication from any other source to suggest that the magnetic data provides anything other than an accurate representation of the sub-surface conditions within the survey area. Therefore, based solely on the results and interpretation of the data, the archaeological potential at the southern boundary of the site is considered to be high and in the north.
