HD 18610 was included in our project on abundance determination of rapidly oscillating (roAp) and non-oscillating (noAp) cool chemically peculiar stars. Already a preliminary investigation of the raw spectra indicated the presence of an intense magnetic field which was confirmed by a more detailed analysis. To determine the magnetic field strength we primarily used the Fe n line at 6149.26 A°, a strong line which is split in a anomalous Zeeman doublet. HD 18610 is a Cr-Eu-Sr non-pulsating Ap star with a Teff and log g typical for roAp stars. The classification of this star as a CP2 star (Preston 1974) was confirmed with ?a photometry by Maitzen & Vogt (1983). In the present investigation we derived a mean magnetic field modulus of |B| = 5 700 ‘ 200 G.
