Abstract: |
A resistivity and magnetometry surveys were conducted by research students from the University of Bristol's Department of Archaeology and Anthropology during 14th to 15th March 2015. The surveys followed a desk based assessment which considered the archaeological potential of the site to be low to very low. Yet, a series of buildings can be seen in situ from 1766 until 1840 and their position in the landscape is significant, particularly in relation to a Domesday recorded mill. The buildings were demolished at some point after the Tithe Award Map of 1840. The aims and objectives of the project was (1) to record any surviving remains of the buildings recorded in the historic maps of the area; (2) to investigate whether any other features of archaeological interest survived; and (3) to test the conclusions of the desk based assessment. |
