Full Description
December 2015-January 2016. Geophysical Survey.
Magnetometer survey of proposed development site.
This survey identified no responses of obvious archaeological significance.
A number of widely spaced parallel east-to-west aligned linear anomalies in the western half of the site may represent the traces of medieval or early post-medieval ridge and furrow cultivation.
Various amorphous areas of magnetic variation were probably the result of changes in the underlying geology.
A number of scattered discrete magnetic 'spikes' are likely to indicate the presence of ferrous metal objects, most likely modern debris.
See report (S1) for further details.
