Abstract/Summary
A geophysical (fluxgate gradiometer) survey, commissioned by CLASP, undertaken on the site of a Roman settlement as part of a larger landscape characterization project. The fieldwork centred on OS SP 46970252650 to the north of the village of Tiffield, Northamptonshire, covering an area of approximately 5.5 ha. An extensive array of anomalies was identified and located. These anomalies comprised a series of linear and rectilinear magnetic features which indicated the existence of a large ovoid enclosure, inland field system and possible central complex of buildings.
