Abstract: |
Three magnetic anomaly groups were mapped as possibly representing archaeological deposits. One coincides with a known field boundary, mapped between 1841 and at least 1988. The other two groups represent possible linear deposits. The anomalies relating to the known field boundary indicate that only relatively recent iron or steel fragments and some sporadic rubble remain. This implies that any earlier expressions of the boundary have been lost. Further, the Cullompton 1841 Tithe map shows four other field boundaries within the survey area, all of which are absent from the survey data. This suggests that the survey area has been subjected to deep ploughing, significant flooding or similar sub-surface disturbance which has removed any magnetic contrast across the survey area. |
