Abstract: |
A detailed gradiometry survey was carried out over approximately 16.5 hectares of arable farmland and grassland. A substantial area of late prehistoric settlement activity has been identified, comprising roundhouses, rectilinear enclosures, a possible field system and backfilled pits. The features identified provide evidence of multi-phase prehistoric, Iron Age and possible Roman settlement. Evidence of ridge and furrow cultivation, a trackway and former building indicate that the site has been used for agricultural purposes since the medieval period. The other features detected are natural or modern and include areas of natural magnetic variation, magnetic disturbance from nearby ferrous objects, a non-ferrous underground service, and magnetic spikes. |
