Abstract:		 A magnetometry survey was carried out across 3.6ha of land at Nailsea School currently used as a sports field. The area has been outlined for development of new school buildings. The objective of the survey was to locate features of archaeological potential, in particular any features that may be associated with the mining of coal which was widespread in the region up until the mid 19th century. The survey was carried out using a Bartington 601-2 gradiometer. The results revealed many anomalies of modern origin associated with services and modern ferrous objects. Many other anomalies could not be confidently interpreted due to their fragmented and amorphous nature or lack of readily definable characteristics. A number of discrete positive anomalies may represent pit-like features. Other features include land drains and a large response probably related to underlying geological and pedological conditions.
