Abstract: |
In December 2015, Archaeological Solutions Limited (AS) carried out a geophysical survey of land at Haileybury and Imperial Service College, Hertford Heath, Hertfordshire (NGR TL 3575 1040). The survey was required to provide further information prior to the submission of planning proposals for a sports park. The geophysical survey identified four parallel positive anomalies of possible archaeological origin. Their parallel, equally spaced appearance is perhaps suggestive of surviving remnants of medieval ridge and furrow, although this is tentative based on the present evidence. In addition two historic field boundaries, present on the 1883 Ordnance Survey map, were identified in the centre of the survey. The survey results were dominated by two high amplitude linear magnetic responses relating to the presence of modern services. |
