Abstract: |
A magnetic survey was commissioned by the National Trust to prospect land at Park Head for buried structures of archaeological interest, under the aegis of the Unlocking Our Coastal Heritage project. The survey revealed that the headland has been cultivated over potentially a long time, with evidence for multiple field systems. Enclosure ditches not obviously related to cultivation were also found. A known barrow was surveyed over and found to be strongly magnetic which implies that it has been re-used, perhaps as a beacon or to support a structure. A separate area of modified, possibly heated, ground was found nearby. |
