Abstract/Summary

A fluxgate gradiometer survey was undertaken on 1.65ha of land at Harpole. The survey identified widespread magnetic variation, reflecting probable Romano-British settlement remains. The majority of anomalies observed resolve as a series of enclosures and possible building remains, including aspects of a villa complex which was already thought to occupy the site. A series of regularly spaced linear anomalies probably indicate traces of later ridge and furrow ploughing.
