Abstract/Summary
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 (areas 1, 2 and 3) 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.
The report contains images of the results with an interpretive overlay and a site map
