Abstract:
This survey was commissioned by AC Archaeology Ltd on behalf of clients. It was designed to search for the location of hidden mine shafts and record other potential archaeological deposits. Two mine shafts were recorded within the survey area on historical maps as were other adjacent shafts and mine workings. The magnetic contrast across the area was sufficient to be able to differentiate between anomalies representing possible archaeological features and background magnetic responses. The surveyors noted one extant mine shaft not previously mapped. No other evidence of mineshafts was recorded. One magnetic anomaly group, however, represents a mix of materials and disturbed ground that can be indicative of former industrial deposits and demolition debris. A site visit confirmed that the area has been landscaped since it was mapped in 1887 and that was rubble spread across and within the shafts. This has created mixed magnetic responses across the area effectively masking any magnetic readings from the shafts. A shallow, subcircular, negative earthwork was noted which coincides with one of the mapped shafts and is likely to be a filled shaft. With regard to evidence for other archaeological features, magnetic anomalies indicative of ploughing disturbance, possibly from former ridge-and-furrow ploughing, was recorded across the site.
