November 2014. Geophysical Survey.
Magnetometer survey of proposed development site.
This survey identified no potentially archaeologically-significant responses.
Although numerous discrete areas of magnetic disturbance were recorded these are all thought to represent changes in the underlying geology. Scattered dipolar anomalies were probably caused by ferrous material on or close to the surface (most likely modern debris). Two linear anomalies in the southern part of the site were associated with recent agricultural activity.
