Abstract:		 The GPR survey was conducted using an Impulse Radar CrossOver 4080. This was mounted in a pushcart system and coupled with a Carlson BRx7 GNSS instrument, which receives corrections from a network of reference stations operated by the Ordnance Survey. Such instruments allow positions to be determined with a precision of 0.02 m in real-time and therefore exceed European Archaeologiae Consilium recommendations (Schmidt et al. 2015). Data were collected in a parallel method by the dual frequency antenna at a 0.03 m interval, spaced 0.25 m apart. An effective time window of 100 ns was used for the survey. The results from the 400 MHz antenna were considered more appropriate for discussion and are presented in the following paragraphs. A broadly square area, delineated by high amplitude features indicative of walls, likely represents the position of a former basement related to the malthouse. The feature suggests at least one interior compartment and is present in the eastern portion of the site. The top of the basement walls corresponds with a former ground surface, likely the malthouse floor level. Amorphous high amplitude responses within the former basement area suggests backfilling comprised of larger fill material covered with finer material. The responses indicate that there is material piled up against the eastern and western extents of the basement inferring the methodology used in the backfill process. There is no immediate evidence of voids, however they cannot be ruled out. A low amplitude feature was apparent in the western portion of the survey. This feature indicates the presence of a cut feature and has been interpreted as a service trench. This feature also contains a high amplitude linear feature which has been interpreted as the modern service. A low amplitude rectilinear feature and a series of high and low amplitude linear features were identified on the site. These correspond to the extent brick work of the former social club and joins in the concrete slab.
