Abstract: |
Earth Resistance
Area surveyed 0.02ha at 3 depths. Traverse separation; 0.5 metre. Reading / sample interval: 2 per metre
Type, make and model of instrumentation: TR Systems/CIA resistance meter.Mk2 Twin probe array, 0.5, 0.75 and 1m mobile probe separation. Remote probe separation 0.5 metres.
Magnetometry
Area surveyed; 0.28ha. Traverse separation; 1 metre. Reading / sample interval: 8 per metre
Type, make and model of instrumentation: Bartington Grad 601/2 Locating remains in a well used churchyard was always going to be challenging. Here we appear to have located a well or soak-away, a possible wall and an approximately rectangular of higher resistance in the area of the predicted chapel.
The higher resistance area may be best checked by ascertaining whether the people who dug the French drain encountered anything. There is a good possibility that any chapel remains have been destroyed by graves and all we are seeing is the area which has more stones than elsewhere. |
