Abstract: |
Stratascan were commissioned by RPS Planning, Transport and Environment, on behalf of Gazeley Properties Ltd, to undertake a geophysical survey of an area outlined for a development consisting of distribution units, parking, roads and a park and ride facility. The site covers approximately 14.6ha of agricultural land (Figure 1a), however as the western part of the site was still under crop at the time of survey, a total of 9ha was surveyed within the east of the site (see Figure 2). A detailed magnetic survey conducted over 9ha on land near South Marston, Swindon, located a number of geophysical anomalies across the site. Ferrous objects are represented by strong bipolar anomalies, however all other anomalies are of a very low magnitude generally no stronger than 1.5nT. Despite the low magnitude several linear, curvilinear and possible rectilinear anomalies have been identified that may relate to cut features with an archaeological origin. |
