Abstract:		 Detailed magnetometry was carried out by Archaeological Surveys Ltd over 84.5ha ahead of an application for development of a solar farm at Wick Farm near Lacock. The central part of the site had been previously subject to archaeological investigation and a Roman settlement had been identified. The central part of the site had been previously subject to archaeological investigation and a Roman settlement had been identified. The results demonstrate a continuation of this Roman settlement in the central part of the site, with two series of enclosures on different orientations. A number of Roman roadside buildings have also been identified along with a large number of pits and areas of intense burning likely to relate to former ovens/hearths. To the north of this are three further areas containing evidence for late prehistoric and/or Roman occupation, with zones of enclosures containing ring ditches and pits/areas of burning and occupational debris. A former brick kiln probably of post-medieval date has also been located.
