Abstract:		 Headland Archaeology (UK) Ltd undertook a geophysical (electromagnetic) survey of land covering 31 hectares at Rawcliffe Road, near Goole, to assess the archaeological potential of the site and inform further archaeological strategies prior to the determination of a planning application. The survey was carried out using a multi-receiver coil which enables readings to be taken at three depths, utilising the in-phase (magnetic susceptibility) and quadrature (conductivity) components of the equipment. The conductivity data has been inverted to display apparent resistivity data. The survey was carried out in order to map geomorphological features, such as palaeochannels and areas of higher ground, in the former wetland landscape which are now buried beneath alluvial and warped deposits. The identification of areas of higher ground may locate areas favoured for settlement in the prehistoric period. Broad and amorphous anomalies have been recorded in the quadrature and in-phase data, although there is little apparent correlation between the two datasets. The in-phase data shows that there is little change in the magnetic susceptibility of the soil with increasing depth, possibly indicating a uniform soil. The quadrature (apparent resistivity) data shows a number of high resistance areas which may locate areas when the soils are drier and which may have been favoured as areas for settlement amongst a marshy landscape. It should be noted that these interpretations are considered to be tentative. An area where post-medieval material has been spread across part of a field has also been identified in the data.
