Abstract: |
A geophysical survey was carried out by Archaeological Surveys Ltd, at the request of Cotswold Archaeology, on land to the north of Rowdeford School near Rowde, Wiltshire. The results of the detailed magnetometry revealed widespread linear, rectilinear, curvilinear and discrete responses, but the majority lack a coherent morphology and are of uncertain origin. Some discrete responses could indicate an association with burning and other responses are likely to relate to tree removal. At the eastern edge of the site there is a strong, discrete response that is surrounded by a sub-circular feature approximately 4.2m wide, with several other linear anomalies nearby. The magnitude of the response indicates that they may be an association with burning, possibly industrial activity. |
