Abstract: |
Magnetometer survey was carried out in order to examine in more detail evidence for a suspected archaeological site initially detected as a series of circular cropmarks on aerial photographs in a field overlooking the Camel Estuary near Lelissick, Cornwall. The survey revealed a dense pattern of single and multiple circular, semi-circular and sub-circular anomalies running in a broad band north--south through the middle of the field. Linear ditch-type anomalies were located between the cliff-edge and the main concentration of circles. It is not possible from the survey evidence alone to determine the precise nature of the circular anomalies, but if they represent the remains of a settlement, perhaps as many as 70 individual dwellings could be present in the area surveyed. |
