Full Description
April 2012-April 2013. Geophysical Survey.
Magnetometer survey on proposed line of Norwich Northern Distributor Road (Block 21).
This survey identified a north-north-west to south-south-east aligned linear anomaly. Cartographic evidence suggests that this probable ditch may have been associated with a former line of the parish boundary between Horsford and Horsham St Faith (which now lies a little way to the east).
Although a number of other anomalies were identified the majority are thought to be of geological origin.
See report (S1) for further details.
