Abstract:
A geophysical (magnetometer) survey was completed in the grounds of Sketchley House, Burbage to inform the determination of an outline planning application for residential and associated development. The survey has identified anomalies indicative of medieval ridge and furrow. Areas of magnetic disturbance correlate with features on recent and historic mapping. Although the site borders Watling Street no anomalies of obvious archaeological potential have been identified. Numerous discrete anomalies are interpreted as of probable geological origin although given the proximity of the Roman road an archaeological cause cannot be completely dismissed. Therefore, on the basis of the geophysical survey the archaeological potential of the majority of the site is considered to be very low with a very slight chance of encountering isolated features adjacent to Watling Street.
