Abstract:
A caesium magnetometer survey was conducted at Millbeck Farm, Middleton, Cumbria, over a D-shaped enclosure identified from a cropmark through initial aerial survey as part of the National Archaeological Identification Surveys: Upland Pilot (RASMIS 6304). It was hoped that the magnetic survey might enhance the archaeological record of the site, as the cropmarks were in places indistinct possibly due to the variable geological background that might obscure the identification of wider significant activity. A vehicle-towed, caesium magnetometer array was used to cover an area of 6.5ha over the cropmark and two adjacent fields to the south and west. The results confirm the presence of the enclosure and provide some additional definition including the position of a possible entrance, tentative evidence for a connecting drove-way to the south west and some indication of internal occupation activity. The northern side of the enclosure appears to have been constructed alongside a linear boundary ditch and confirms the aerial photographic evidence that suggests this is not directly incorporated into the D-shaped cropmark.
