Abstract:		 Headland Archaeology (UK) Ltd undertook a geophysical (magnetometer) survey, covering approximately 187 hectares on land south of Oxford, Oxfordshire, to provide baseline information on the archaeological potential of the site. The survey has identified six areas of archaeological potential (AAP), including a central complex of anomalies indicative of settlement, located in close proximity to a findspot of Iron Age pottery and coins (AAP1). Five circular anomalies, possible barrows, and two rectangular enclosures are clearly identified within an east/west 'corridor' to the west of the settlement complex (AAP2 and AAP3). The eastern extent of the complex is less well defined although a broad area of faint and fragmented linear and rectilinear anomalies (AAP4) is identified extending north-eastwards towards Grenoble Road and the known Iron Age and Roman sites beyond. Two areas of archaeological potential have been identified in the eastern half of the survey. A small cluster of linear anomalies aligned oblique to the current pattern of land division may locate the remnants of a possible field system between Sandfordbrake Farm and Sandfordbrake Electricity Sub-station (AAP5). A more extensive concentration of anomalies (AAP6), including a clear circular anomaly, in the north-eastern corner of the site adjacent to Grenoble Road, and in close proximity to Roman Way, is also considered to be of probable archaeological origin. Based solely on the results and interpretation of the data, the archaeological potential across the majority of the site is considered to be low to moderate, but moderate to high in the six identified areas of potential.
