Magnetometer survey of approximately 3.8 ha did not produce magnetic responses that could be interpreted as being of definite archaeological interest, although ridge and furrow ploughing is visible in the magnetic data. A cluster of pit-like response and discrete linear ditch-like response have been recorded in the south of the site and have been categorised as uncertain, sicne it is unclear if they are of any antiquity or due to modern processes. A negative linear response and two linear trends are likely to be a result of modern or agricultural processes, and a band of magnetic disturbance and the route of a service pipe have also been marked.
