Northamptonshire Archaeology was commissioned to conduct a geophysical survey in advance of a proposed development on land adjacent to Hempshill Hall, Broxtowe, Nottinghamshire. The study consisted of a detailed magnetometer survey of approximately 6ha of land covering 3 fields. A desk based assessment took place prior to the survey, this concluded that the area was of little archaeological potential. The survey has detected only a few archaeological remains, comprising a short length of ditch and a pit in Area 3, a possible bank or causeway in Area 2, and ridge and furrow in Areas 1 and 3. Some of these may be related to the medieval village of Hempshill, but the location of the village itself remains elusive.
