Abstract: |
Magnitude Surveys was commissioned to assess the subsurface archaeological potential of a c. 41.2ha area of land at Haddon, Cambridgeshire. A fluxgate gradiometer survey was successfully completed across the survey area. Possible archaeological activity has been identified in the form of isolated partial, possible enclosures and unmapped field systems. Anomalies related to historical agricultural use have been detected, including mapped former field boundaries and ridge and furrow cultivation. Modern agricultural activity has been detected as drainage features and current ploughing regimes. Anomalies relating to natural drainage and soil variations have also been identified within the survey area. The impact of modern activity on the results in generally limited to the edges of the survey area, where ferrous sources have produced areas of magnetic disturbance. |
