Abstract:		 The cart-based survey was undertaken using an eight channel SenSYS MX V3 system containing eight FGM650 sensors. Readings are taken every 20MHz (between 0.05 and 0.1m). Data were recorded onto a device, using a Carlson GNSS Smart antenna, for centimetre accuracy. These readings were stored in the memory of the instrument and downloaded for processing and interpretation. DLMGPS and MAGNETO software, alongside bespoke in-house software was used to process and present the data. A geophysical (magnetometer) survey was undertaken on approximately 52 hectares of land located to the northeast of Lanchester, Durham. Anomalies of both a definite and a possible archaeological origin have been detected including a square enclosure, a ring ditch and possible structural remains. Medieval or post-medieval ridge and furrow cultivation have been detected along with former field boundaries and modern ploughing. Large areas of geological responses within the dataset are likely to be associated to past mining. Based on the magnetic survey the archaeological potential of the Site is deemed to be high in the west of the survey area and medium to low elsewhere.
