Full Description
November 2015. Desk-based Assessment.
Assessment of large proposed development area.
See report (S1) for further details.
P. Watkins (HES), 5 May 2023.
August 2017-March 2018. Geophysical Survey.
Magnetometer survey of proposed route of A140 Long Stratton Bypass.
This survey revealed a number of north-north-east to south-south-west and west-north-west to east-south-aligned linear anomalies likely to represent infilled ditches. Several correspond with former boundaries depicted on the Stratton St Mary tithe map (S2). The two that don't correspond with any features depicted on this or later maps are both aligned perpendicular to the adjacent road and presumably represents elements of an earlier field system.
A number of discrete magnetic spikes are likely to have been caused by ferrous objects in the topsoil – most likely modern debris.
See report (S3) for further details.
