Abstract: |
A fluxgate gradiometer and resistivity survey was undertaken over a playing field located in the precinct of a Benedictine Monastery and included an upstanding part of the middle Saxon burghal bank. The results from the survey were distorted by a number of anomalies across the area, however, it was possible to identify the probable remains of the medieval 'Petiscrue Lane', which probably represented the continued use of the Roman road. The results of the survey appeared to show that although the area was largely disturbed there were surviving archaeological remains that could be damaged through any development on the site.
