Abstract: |
A detailed magnetometer survey was carried out by Archaeological Surveys Ltd, at the request of AC Archaeology, on land at Manor Farm, to the south of Castle Cary in Somerset. The survey was undertaken over a 2.6ha site which has been outlined for a solar development. The results show a number of positive linear anomalies, some of which may relate to cut, ditch-like features. A number of positive discrete anomalies and an area of magnetically variable responses appear to relate to former quarrying. The site also contains a large number of widespread discrete positive responses which may to relate to naturally formed pit-like features. |
