Abstract: |
This report was commissioned by AC Archaeology Ltd and is part of a programme of archaeological works undertaken in in preparation for a proposed development at the above site and follows the publication of a desk based assessment completed by Wessex Archaeology (2011). The magnetic and earth-resistance responses across the survey areas were sufficient to be able to differentiate between anomalies representing possible archaeological features and background magnetic responses. Thirty-one magnetic anomaly groups were mapped as possibly representing archaeological deposits or features. The majority of these anomaly groups have characteristics typical of former field boundaries and enclosures of unknown date and more than one phase of land management. Of the remainder, one group may represent a former ditch-sided track or road, two may represent three sides of a rectangular enclosure and one group may represent an archaeological deposit or structure respected by an unusually shaped former field boundary mapped in 1841 but not later. |
