Abstract: |
A geophysical survey combining resistance, magnetometry and ground penetrating radar survey was carried out at Castle Hill Farm. A large number of anomalies were detected indicating different kinds of ground disturbances, much of it of modern origin. A broad area of low resistance along the northern edge of area one was likely to correspond to the infilled moat. High resistance features detected with this feature may correspond to rubble or similar infilling. Circular features of low resistance were of unknown origin, but one of these features was cut by a known wall demolished in the late 19th or early 20th century. Anomalies detected by magnetic survey, resistance survey and GPR results suggested the presence of an infilled ditch traversing area two. A further ditch like feature and footings of a wall were also identified. [Au(adp)] |
