  We analyse the magnetic activity characteristics of the planet hosting
Sun-like star, HD 1237, using HARPS spectro-polarimetric time-series data. We
find evidence of rotational modulation of the magnetic longitudinal field
measurements consistent with our ZDI analysis, with a period of 7 days. We
investigate the effect of customising the LSD mask to the line depths of the
observed spectrum and find that it has a minimal effect on shape of the
extracted Stokes V profile but does result in a small increase in the S/N
($\sim$ 7%). We find that using a Milne-Eddington solution to describe the
local line profile provides a better fit to the LSD profiles in this slowly
rotating star, which also impacts the recovered ZDI field distribution. We also
introduce a fit-stopping criterion based on the information content (entropy)
of the ZDI maps solution set. The recovered magnetic field maps show a strong
(+90 G) ring-like azimuthal field distribution and a complex radial field
dominating at mid latitudes ($\sim$45 degrees). Similar magnetic field maps are
recovered from data acquired five months apart. Future work will investigate
how this surface magnetic field distribution impacts the coronal magnetic field
and extended environment around this planet-hosting star.
