Matthew Arnold School, Staines.

Geophysical survey carried out by Matthew McMurray as part of a university project, in order to test for the existence of an eastern enclosure to the Caesar’s Camp earthwork, as defined by William Stukeley in 1723. A number of new features were identified, including the remains of a possible banjo enclosure, and kiln site. A possible Roman building was also noted, although this could not be confirmed. The area of the Caesar’s camp Scheduled Monument was re-plotted, and revealed what appeared to be the remains of a circular ditch within the enclosure. Stukeley’s eastern enclosure was not conclusively identified, although what appeared to be an extremely large ditch was revealed in the approximate area, the dimensions of which suggest it is not contemporary with the Scheduled feature.
