REPORT_ID,SUMMARY,COMPILER_SYNOPSIS 6,"A geophysical survey was carried out at Beadlam villa, employing resistivity, magnetometry and magnetic susceptibility. The aim was to complement the findings of excavations in the 1960s, now being prepared for publication by the MAP Archaeological Consultancy of Malton. The survey was generally unhelpful in achieving the initial aim of tracing the continuation of walls revealed by excavation. However the results do significantly augment. previous knowledge of the development and layout of the settlement. The survey traced the course of a major enclosure ditch and detected probable remains of a hitherto unknown small square building lying to the south of the main villa complex. In addition the magnetometer located ditches to the east of the villa and an area of possible industrial activity south of the west wing of the villa. Resistivity contrasts between back-filled excavation trenches and undisturbed areas enabled the extent of former excavations to be .",N 5,"A magnetometer survey was conducted at Mayfield Farm, Black Cross, Cornwall to investigate the significance of a raised mound and adjacent cropmarks due to be destroyed by the construction of the A39 St Columb bypass. The abundance of modern ferrous detritus associated with the farm severely limited the success of the survey although a number of amomalies, broadly replicating the cropmark data, have been identified.",N 3,Magnetometer survey over the site of a Saxon pit failed to locate any related features owing to extensive magnetic disturbance of modern origin.,N 2,"This survey was carried out to test for evidence of archaeological features or activity on the line of the proposed Newcastle Western Bypass where it intersects Hadrian's Wall and the Vallum. Strong disturbances were found on the line of the Vallum, but there was little response from the Wall. Other resistivity anomalies were detected between the Wall and the Vallum, but none of them appear to represent clearly identifiable archaeological features.",N 1,"This report summarises results of a resistivity survey in the Glebe Paddock at Croyland Abbey, Lincs., which extended a previous survey of the adjacent Kissing Ground. No significant anomalies were located.",N 4,"The purpose of this magnetometer survey was to attempt to locate any archaeological features associated with a supposed Mesolithic occupation site found and partially excavated during the laying of a British gas pipeline in 1990. The results were inconclusive: magnetic interference from the pipeline was excessive and beyond this no significant features were detectable against a generally quiet magnetic background. A second area was surveyed, closer to the nearby river Blackwater, and this was shown to probably contain both artificial and natural features of unknown age.",N 16,"The aim of this resistivity survey was to locate buried features associated with the early history of Lyddington Bede House and, if possible, to correlate these with the findings of previous trail excavations. Results were disappointing on account of the depth of burial of the features and the restricted area of the survey.",N 15,"This resistivity survey has successfully identified a palimpsest of anomalies related to the former design of the Hall and its gardens. In addition, a substantial amount of information has been gained by combining the Northamptonshire Archaeology Unit's magnetometer survey in a similar format, although detailed interpretation of the geophysical data has been limited by the site's complexity.",N 14," This survey examined the ground to the east of the terminus of the Stonehenge Cursus, under threat as a possible access route to the new Visitor Centre. The eastern flanking ditch of the long barrow (Amesbury 42) 40m from the end of the Cursus was located, along with a substantial portion of ditch some 70m further to the east. No further substantial features were detected with any certainty.",N 13," This report describes the geophysical investigations of sites in the vicinity of Stonehenge which were carried out for the Trust For Wessex Archaeology as part of the Stonehenge Environs Project. The sites were surveyed by the AM Laboratory in 1982 and 1983 prior to excavation, and additional extensive magnetic susceptibility surveying was undertaken by the excavators. This approach was adopted following the successful susceptibility survey of the Coneybury Henge in 1980, which is the subject of a separate report (AML Report 169/88). The results of the various Stonehenge Environs surveys are brought together here for the first time so that the contribution which geophysical techniques can make to a comprehensive archaeological fieldwork programme can be assessed. The results of a magnetometer survey of the Stonehenge Cursus carried out for TWA by J A Gater in 1987 are also noted.",N 12,"Geophysical survey was undertaken on the roddon of the Old Croft River at Littleport, Cambs, in response to a request from the Fenland Management Project. Saltern sites occur in great density along the roddon; the area in question was of interest both as surviving pasture and because the roddon remains as an earthwork there. The survey results were disappointing, however, providing no geophysical evidence of saltworking.",N 11,"The purpose of this geophysical survey of a small Iron Age earthwork complex in Hampshire was to provide supplementary evidence to that obtained by topographic survey and limited excavation. The site is being assessed as part of the Danebury Environs Project.In the event, only partial magnetometer coverage could be achieved, owing to vegetation cover, and the magnetic response from other parts of the site was interrupted by recent disturbance. Some features were detected, however, confirming both the lay-out of the main earthwork enclosure and that this does not contain evidence for intensive settlement. Some evidence for later cultivation was also tentatively identified.",N 10,A resistivity survey to locate medieval features in advance of excavation. The survey revealed little of archaeological significance within the area of the proposed churchyard extension.,N 9,"Geophysical survey was undertaken at Eynsham Abbey, Oxon in response to a request from the Oxford Archaeological Unit. Its aim was to investigate the abbey precinct as part of the ongoing Eynsham Abbey Project. The results indicate that buried foundations of walls and buildings are present in the area investigated. Although the response to resistivity, in particular, was good, the definition of any precise structural pattern is hampered by natural ground effects across the site.",N 8,"Geophysical survey was undertaken at Nuneham Courtenay in response to a request from the Oxford Archaeological Unit. Its aim was to define the extent of a Roman industrial site discovered during the laying of a water main. The survey successfully mapped the site, locating a number of kilns and other features.",N 7," This report describes a resistivity survey which was conducted in the grounds of Bury St. Edmunds Abbey in the areas of the Infirmary, Abbot's Garden, the Dovecot and the reputed site of a mill. The findings indicate that extensive buried foundations of walls and buildings are likely to be present in many of the areas investigated. Although the geophysical response was good, the definition of precise structural patterns was not particularly clear.",N 17,"After medieval wall footings had been uncovered on the site of the 13th century Bishop's Terrace, a resistivity survey was carried out to obtain information on the plan of the building in advance of the construction work. The survey revealed some wall footings but no clear building plan.",N 18,"Hadrian's Wall was carried across the River Irthing by means of a substantial bridge, the site of which now lies on dry land to the east of the recent course of theriver. The eastern abutment of the bridge survives but no other remains are visible. The resistivity survey described in this report was carried out to test for evidence of whether any additional buried masonry survives from the remainder of the structure. The findings suggest that any such masonry must lie for the most part at considerable depth, but they also show subsurface disturbances of uncertain significance close to the expected position of the western abutment.",N 19,"This report describes the results of extensive magnetometer coverage of the landscape surrounding the Rollright stone circle. Both archaeological and natural features were found and shown to correlate well with the aerial evidence of cropmark patterns. Confirmation of the nature and location of several of these features was achieved by excavation as part of a complementary archaeological survey by the Oxford Archaeological Unit. Amongst the most clearly detected features were those belonging to an Iron Age settlement site to the north-east of the stone circle, a trackway leading from this towards the Whispering Knights, and two ring ditches some distance to the south of the circle. The magnetometer findings are believed to be a genuine representat-ion of the main extant archaeological remains present in the areas surveyed, and it appears that no major new sites have been detected. The text of an earlier report on the geophysical survey of the interior of the stone circle is also included.",N 20,A geophysical survey was carried out as part of a plough damage assessment by the Institute of Archaeology Field Unit. A faint scatter of possible archaeological features was detected by magnetometry against a very disturbed background and resistivity survey revealed parts of an inner enclosure.,N 21,"Following earlier work in 1979, this report describes magnetometer and magnetic susceptiblity surveys carried out at the Anglo-Saxon and multi-period site at Spong Hill, near Dereham, Norfolk, in 1986. Extensive magnetometer coverage of the ground around and to the north of excavations on the site was unable to detect archaeological features to any useful degree owing to poor magnetic contrasts in the soil. Topsoil magnetic susceptibility measurements over a wide area of the site did, however, reveal variations that may relate to the presence of early settlement.",N 22,"This report describes results of magnetometer coverage of two sample areas within the 109 hectares of Brighton Hill, Basingstoke, due for housing development. Two cropmark complexes, of medieval and Romano-British age, respectively, were sampled, but the response of the magnetometer to these was poor. Although certain features were detectable, the anomalies were weak and discontinuous and did not match the quality of thecropmark evidence. Further survey was therefore not attempted.",N 23,"The survey work described here forms a preliminary approach to a programme of assessment of archaeological potential at Mayfield Farm by the West London Unit ofthe DGLA, in advance of possible gravel extraction. The purpose of the survey was to locate archaeological features related to late prehistoric cropmark complexes visible over large areas of the farm. Recorded magnetometer survey, scanning, and topsoil magnetic susceptibility measurement were all unsuccessful in defining either archaeological features or areas of former settlement. The main factor behind these unencouraging results is the lack of magnetic contrasts between feature fills and their surrounding soil. Further work in the face of this and other difficulties, if considered, would require extended magnetometer scanning, further magnetic susceptibility measurementand perhaps the testing of resistivity survey methods.",N 24,"The Roman industrial site at Winery Lane, Walton-le-Dale appears to be a fragment of a once larger site eroded by shifting river channels. Geophysical tests were made to discover whether the Roman features were detectable, and also whether the subsoil of the site could be distinguished from the surrounding areas of post-Roman silting.The site has been exposed to modern disturbances which created difficult conditions for the survey. Some positive results were achieved, especially in identifying areas of uniform silting, but further work would beneeded to delimit the site completely.",N 25,"To help clarify the results of previous resistivity traverses a geophysical survey was carried out by the AML to locate the remains of Peterborough's Burgh wall and ditch. Although no clear course for the wall and ditch was obtained, a number of anomalies were recorded suggesting the presence of several possible archaeological features.",N 26,A resistivity survey and magnetometer scan of an extensive area of earthworks immediately north of Acton Court house.,N 27,"This survey was carried out at the request of the Norfolk Archaeological Unit following their excavation at the site. The object of the survey was to test for evidence of buried wall footings, and especially any which might relate to the chapter house of the Priory. A well defined resistivity anomaly which appears to represent such a wall footing,and which might correspond to the E wall of the chapter house was in fact located. The southern extent of the structure could not be clearly determined, and no other significant archaeological features were detected in the area covered by the survey.",N 28,"Extensive magnetometer survey in the grounds of Hucclecote School, including the coverage of the site of a Roman villa, has not produced significant results. Magnetic response was mostly limited to that from modern features, although some of the weaker anomalies detected may be of archaeological origin.",N 29,"The results of a resistivity survey over the site of a Roman villa in the grounds of Horkstow Hall, Humberside are described. The survey clearly identifies disturbance arising from the presence of the villa, although no clear plan of the building has been detected.",N 30," Coneybury was the first of several sites surveyed by the Ancient Monuments Laboratory as a contribution to the fieldwork programme undertaken by the Trust For Wessex Archaeology, which became known as the Stonehenge Environs Project. The site is a small ploughed-out henge on a chalk subsoil, and offers conditions suitable for geophysical investigation by a variety of techniques. It was therefore used as a test site at which the findings from different survey methods could be compared. This was one of the first sites where intensive magnetic susceptibility surveying of a substantial area was attempted, and the results influenced the survey strategy adopted at other Project sites, as well as being of wider interest.",N 31,"This survey of an oval cropmark site threatened by road construction successfully identified a ditched enclosure similar to a Cornish 'raund'. Additional features located outside the enclosure, but not necessarily related to it, include linear ditches, pits, and evidence for occupation.",N 32,"This report describes the results of resistivity and magnetometer surveys over the remains of a medieval hospital now being damaged by river erosion. Some evidence for the presence of former buildings was found, especially by the resistivity survey, but their definition was not particularly clear. Some other anomalies from both sets of data may be of archaeological origin, although there is disturbance from surface effects and modern pipe trenches.",N 33,"This survey of part of Athelney Island, the medieval site of Athelney Abbey, was carried out in order to assess the extent to which wall footings had been damaged by ploughing. Some possible remains were located but it was clear that damage had been quite considerable.",N 34, This report describes the survey of a Bronze Age round barrow threatened by local construction work. Little evidence of any associated archaeological activity was found: only one clear linear anomaly was detected but its interpretation remains uncertain.,N 35," Geophysical survey over the find-spot of an item of Roman silverware is described. Although there is some positive magnetic and resistivity evidence for significant buried features in the vicinity, neither this, nor the findings of a metal detector survey, have established the archaeological context of the original find. This would be best achieved by test excavation.",N 36," Kemp Howe, the site of a long barrow in North Humberside, was surveyed in order to locate more precisely features detected in a previous Ancient Monuments Laboratory survey. A second barrow, 250m to the NW, was also surveyed to assess the threat posed by plough damage.",N 37," Magnetometer surveys were carried out at five points along the proposed route of the Southern Dorchester bypass, in conjunction with excavation by the Trust for Wessex Archaeology, to assess the extent of the threat to buried archaeological remains. In all areas response to the technique was poor and little information about the location of possible features was recovered. Soil samples were also taken for magnetic susceptibility anslysis but these results were unremarkable.",N 38," This survey was undertaken in response to a request from Hull Council Museums Service. Its intention was to establish the extent and layout of early Roman features sampled in excavations at Redcliff and under threat from erosion by the river Humber. Results indicate a pattern of linear features, probably enclosures, with some evidence for related occupational activity, all concentrated within an area extending to about 60m from the river's edge. Little else was detected to the north or west of this, within the area surveyed.",N 39," This report describes a magnetometer survey of the interior of the Iron Age enclosure on White Horse Hill at Uffington, Oxfordshire. A thin distribution of pits and an area of disturbance, possibly also related to occupation, was found. Linear features located may also be of archaeological significance, and include the response to medieval cultivation.",N 40," The purpose of this survey was to locate a circular cropmark (County SAM 199) in order to protect it from the future dumping of topsoil from the adjacent quarry at Alrewas. The geophysical response indicates an outer ring ditch, 35m in diameter, and an interior ditch or central depression. No conclusive evidence for associated features was detected.",N 41," This survey was undertaken to establish the character of the remains of a deserted medieval settlement situated in fields around Eckweek House, Avon. The site had been partially excavated by Avon County Council in advance of housing and road development. It was hoped that geophysical survey of unexcavated areas would assist the targetting of further sample excavation and also provide additional information on areas left unrecorded by excavation. The survey therefore covered the majority of the remaining undisturbed areas of the site, and was successful in the detection of evidence for further buried remains and patterns of past land division. These results significantly improved upon existing knowledge of the site.",N 42," This report describes the results of resistivity survey over earthwork enclosures located on the escarpment to the south of the main medieval hospital site. Little of significance was located that was not already visible in the form of surface features. Additional resistivity survey, to the north of the river, provides inconclusive evidence for medieval activity but leaves open the possibility that there was a river crossing here.",N 43," Resistivity survey over three small areas of Vindolanda has indicated that this prospecting technique can effectively identify major sub-surface structures on the site. The results indicate that buried remains - especially stone-built structures - are extensive, although the surveying coverage was insufficient to identify any satisfactory overall pattern.",N 44," This survey extends previous magnetic coverage of an Iron Age and Roman site undertaken by the Northants Archaeology Unit in 1989. A dense and complex pattern of subsurface features was located, dominated by a number of concentric ditches surrounding and overlapping with evidence for occupation including hearths, pits and possible hut sites. Several phases of activity are no doubt represented and it is probable that some medieval features have also been located. Further survey results are awaited.",N 45," This survey was undertaken in response to a request from the Oxford Archaeological Unit. Its aim was to define the pattern and extent of buried remains, and in particular the continuation of a Neolithic ditch discovered during recent excavations. The results amplify information already available from crop marks although the primary objective was hampered by interference from a magnetic gas main.",N 46,"Magnetometer survey over selected parts of Farthing Down has identified some areas of potential archaeological interest although the precise definition of features and their archaeological interpretation has not been possible. Some indications of occupation-type activity have been noted, but no positive evidence for graves or barrow ditches. More positive results would require wider survey coverage and some test excavation.",N 47,"A Magnometer survey was undertaken on cultivated land containing cropmarks of Romano-British features threatened with destruction from sand quarrying. The survey aimed to ascertain whether any further features of potential archaeological interest were present, thus assisting the program of archaeological recording and research being carried out in advance of the mineral extraction. In addition to locating the features known from APs the survey detected a separate, and possibly earlier and enigmatic phase of activity comprising a very widespread pattern of repetitive linear anomalies. The cropmarks appear only to reflect the later presence of Romano-British field systems and trackways.",N 48,"A geophysical survey was undertaken on the site of a prehistoric enclosure, located on a south facing slope, 50 metres above the valley of the Gypsey Race, in the Yorkshire Wolds. The survey formed part of a programme of archaeological assessment of the landscape around the deserted Medieval settlement of Lower Caythorpe. The area is under cultivation and the remains of the enclosure are visible only as cropmarks due to levelling by ploughing. The survey provided further detail of the nature of the site, including some evidence of former settlement activity.",N 49,"This report summarises the results of magnetometer survey over two cropmark sites in the Raunds area of Northamptonshire. The surveys have significantly clarified and extended the definition of sub-surface features on both sites. In each case the results reveal the detail of complex enclosure systems with internal sub-divisions and other features. The Keyston Road complex, in particular, demonstrates separate phases of activity, as well as evidence for dense occupation, including anomalies interpreted as hut circles.",N 50,Despite the intrusion of a modern ferrous pipeline this magnetometer survey has successfully located a number of anomalies both adjacent to and extending west from the excavated medieval dovecote. These anomalies are interpreted as two previously undiscovered enclosures with associated occupation features. The question of multi-phase activity on the site has not been clearly resolved by the survey.,N 51,"This survey was undertaken in response to a request from the Norfolk Archaeological Unit. Its aim was to assist with the evaluation of a recent application from the landowner to continue subsoiling the site. The results have successfully demonstrated the presence of archaeological features extending beyond the currently scheduled area, although the geophysical response to these is confused.",N 52,The survey has successfully located the Roman fort recorded by Collingwood at Burgh-by-Sands and identified a wide linear anomaly presumably associated with the defensive line of Hadrian's wall. The magnetic data also provides evidence of extra-mural activity although there is little correspondence between this data and the smaller scale resistivity survey.,N 53,"This survey describes the results of limited magnetometer survey over part of a probable iron Age hillfort. Although a substantial perimeter ditch was located, as well as potential occupation features, the survey results are disappointing.",N 54,"Resistivity survey was undertaken at Gedding Hall, Suffolk, in response to a request from the Suffolk Archaeological Unit. All that remains of this 15th-century to early 16th-century moated house is the gatehouse. The aim of the survey was to attempt to locate the remains of any buried ranges of buildings in the area of the moated ""island"" now under grass. In the event, although a number of walls and other features were located, these do not form a complete pattern.",N 55,"Geophysical survey was undertaken at Wardy Hill, Cambridgeshire in response to a request from the Cambridge Archaeological Unit. Recent FMP excavations at the Coveney ringwork suggest that this defended enclosure is only part of a larger complex extending down from nearby Wardy Hill. Cropmarks on the hill appear to relate to the excavated outworks of the Coveney ringwork. The aim of this survey was to investigate the Wardy Hill field in an attempt to locate any archaeological features that may be associated with the ringwork. Whilst resistivity survey was ineffective, magnetometer survey successfully revealed a pattern of linear features, probably enclosures. Although there is some common alignment with the nearby 'Short Causeway', the relationship between these features and the ringwork remains unresolved.",N 56,"A thorough resistivity survey was conducted in the grounds of Reigate Priory School in an attempt to locate the remains of the former priory claustral buildings. The results were disappointing, in part due to the key-hole nature of the survey and perhaps also confused by subsequent landscaping. However, the survey did reveal a former geometric garden design within the four lawn parterres off the present sunken garden.",N 57,A geophysical survey was carried out over the find-spot of a Roman mosaic pavement recently discovered in set-a-side farmland. The results contain evidence for the form of the structure associated with the mosaic and show that this is only part of a much larger expanse of settlement activity extending into fields to the north and west.,N 58,"Magnetometer and magnetic susceptibility surveys were carried out in 1993 within the Iron Age hillfort of Buckland Rings for management purposes. The survey provided some evidence of the arrangement of the fortifications and entrance features as well as the position of former archaeological interventions in the 1930s by Hawkes. Unfortunately the survey was unable to provide conclusive evidence on the nature of the utilisation and occupation of the fort interior, and is therefore of limited value for informing future management strategy for the site.",N 59,"This survey successfully demonstrated the presence of archaeological anomalies to the west of the current scheduled Roman Fort at Woodbury Farm, Axminster, Devon. Unfortunately the response in the north part of the site has been hampered by the presence of buried pipelines.",N 60,"The purpose of this geophysical survey was to confirm and extend evidence for a Roman building known from cropmarks. Resistivity survey was the most informative of the methods applied, and clearly located both the building and additional features. The latter includes a dense zone of disturbance which - though unexplained - probably includes structural remains. Further work would be required to extend this interpretation.",N 61,"This pilot survey over parts of the Roman site at Kingscote has demonstrated that building remains, as well as a range of other features including roads and subsidiary enclosures, are detectable by geophysical methods. Limited survey outside the scheduled area (Gloucs 467) indicates only sparse archaeological activity in those areas covered.",N 62,"The purpose of this survey was to trace the continuation of a triple-ditched enclosure partly visible as a cropmark, but of unknown southward extent owing to a covering of trees. Tree felling in November 1992 provided the opportunity to map the uncertain boundaries of the enclosure within the wood using magnetometry in order to assist the future management of the site. The results indicate that the enclosure is roughly square in form with rounded corners and that the wood contains about 50% of the site. The enclosure is defined by a series of three ditches around the majority of its perimeter, which is broken on the south-east side by a probable entrance. The entrance and a variation in the layout of the ditches was not previously recognisable from the aerial photo evidence.",N 63,A geophysical survey was carried out around the location of Roman finds. Few anomalies likely to have been caused by archaeological features were detected and the strongest responses of the instruments were to the underlying drift geology. This reinforces the view that the burial location was remote from any contemporary Roman settlement.,N 64,"A geophysical survey was carried out around the location at Ashampstead Common, where a medieval pottery kiln was discovered during landscaping near a field boundary. No anomalies were revealed that could definitely be interpreted as kilns, although two features of the correct size and field strength were detected. The most striking anomalies in the survey were a random scatter of amorphously shaped areas of magnetic enhancement, possibly representing pits associated with pottery manufacture.",N 65,"Despite the presence of Victorian gravel workings a substantial palimpsest of archaeological anomalies has been revealed by this magnetometer survey. These results underline the importance of an understanding of local geomorphology to the success of geophysical techniques within theYarnton Cassington Project area, particularly when interpreting topsoil magnetic susceptibility results. Detailed magnetic measurements on subsurface soil samples recovered from the site aided the identification of archaeological magnetic enhancement.",N 66,"A geophysical survey was carried out in the walled garden at Bolsover Castle, with the hope of finding features related to a previous formal garden. Buried pipes were detected that were likely to have supplied water to the fountain at the centre of the garden, and to the adjacent Little Castle. In addition, a number of less distinct anomalies were identified that may represent the remains of the layout of a previous parterre.",N 67,"Magnetometer survey at Worton Rectory farm has failed to demonstrate the presence of archaeological anomalies in association with the earthworks visible to the south of this site. However, the detection of anomalies of geomorphological origin, possibly indicating the edge of the gravel terrace and the success of trial electromagnetic survey compensated for this disappointment.",N 68,"A geophysical survey was carried out over the remains of two buildings revealed as parchmarks in July 1990 on aerial photographs. The parchmarks were equated with the site of a Mercian (8th century AD) royal palace, located in the area according to historical sources. The survey was commissioned to provide evidence in support of measures to secure the statutory protection of the site. Resistivity survey provided exceptionally clear definition of the extent and layout of the structural remains seen on APs, together with associated features not previously visible. Details of a surrounding complex of Medieval earthworks linked to the former moated manor of Freens Court were also resolved. The clear description of the site provided by the survey evidence has enabled informed protection measures to be introduced to safeguard the future preservation of the archaeology.",N 69,"Exploratory magnetometer and magnetic susceptibility surveys were carried out within the hill-fort of Letcombe Castle in order to assist the development of conservation and public display schemes. The survey revealed the presence of occupation features, appearing to cluster together into groups. Anomalies consistent with circular dwellings were also detected. Additional magnetic susceptibility data suggests an uneven distribution of settlement activity across the fort enclosure.",N 70,The proposed extension of the car park at Grimes Graves necessitated the use of geophysical survey in an attempt to locate any archaeological features endangered by the development. Although the conditions for survey proved not to be ideal the results suggested that major features are probably not present.,N 71,"A moated enclosure in the north-eastern part of Cawood Castle Garth, thought to have enclosed a 17th century garden layout, was the subject of a geophysical survey in March 1993. The survey was aimed at assisting the interpretation and management of an historic landscape presumed to represent the outer court of Cawood Castle - the former residence of the Medieval Archbishops of York. In addition to detecting features already visible in the form of earthworks and modern paths, the survey results contain some limited evidence of previously unrecorded buried linear and other features. However, these do not clearly comprise recognisable elements of a formal garden arrangement. Existing pathways across the site do not appear to impinge upon the features detected.",N 72,"This survey was undertaken to determine if remains of a 'vicus' associated with the Roman fort of Longovicium extended into an area east of the fort adjacent to the limits of modern Lanchester. Ditches on a possible Roman allignment were detected in places, but overall the results are inconclusive, indicating only slender evidence for archaeological activity. The data does not indicate conclusively whether or not other features such as pits, buildings or burials are present or absent. The survey established the presence of former cultivation patterns and that the area had been disturbed by a modern pipeline.",N 73,"The aim of this survey was to detect building foundations on the raised platform of the moated site at Ufton Nervet, Berks. Unfortunately, the survey was hampered by a combination of the ground disturbance caused by recent tree felling work and the high contact resistance of the site as a result of a period of dry weather prior to the survey.",N 74,"Geophysical survey was undertaken at Verulamium, St Albans, in response to a request from the Landscape Branch of English Heritage. The aim of the survey was to assess the archaeological potential of the area in advance of a programme of tree planting. The results indicate the presence of buried occupational features to the east, with associated industrial activity, and suggest that the western half of the surveyed area is relatively free of previous occupation.",N 356,"Magnetic survey of the site at Penhale Moor, Cornwall confirmed the presence of archaeological anomalies detected as a series of cropmarks by previous aerial photography. Subsequent trial excavation by the Cornish Archaeological Unit, prior to the construction of the A30 road improvements, revealed the presence of a Bronze Age dwelling and an associated scatter of pit/post hole features.",N 80,"Geophysical survey was undertaken at Merdon Castle, Hursley, Hampshire, in response to a request from Steven Trow, the Inspector of Ancient Monuments responsible for the site. A management plan for the future upkeep of the monument is currently being prepared by EH in conjunction with Winchester City Council and the land owners. The aim of the survey was to attempt to locate any buried structures surviving within the earthworks at Merdon, and in particular within the well preserved 12th century Norman ringwork. The results of the resistivity survey indicate that buried foundations of walls and buildings are present, predominantly within the inner ward of the ringwork. Unfortunately, the sheer amount of recent activity at the site has severely impaired the effectiveness of magnetometer survey.",N 362,"A geophysical survey was carried out at Trevigue near St. Genny's in northern Cornwall to detect any surviving remains of a shrunken medieval settlement thought to have existed on the site. Results were disappointing and no definite archaeological features were detected with either magnetometry or resistivity. Nevertheless, several linear anomalies were revealed in the resistivity survey that may indicate the presence of poorly preserved wall footings.",N 360,"Magnetic survey of the site at St Andrew's Hill, Cullompton, Devon confirmed the presence of archaeological anomalies detected as a series of cropmarks by aerial photography in 1984. However, no significant magnetic anomalies were detected in the immediate environs of the fort to the west, where the Town council proposed the extension of the existing town cemetery. Subsequent excavation by the Exeter Museum Archaeological Field Unit, prior to this development revealed a Roman fort ditch running alongside the eastern boundary of the proposed cemetery extension. The failure of this quite substantial feature to be detected as a magnetic anomaly was attributed to the concentration of modern ferrous material that had accumulated within this area of the survey.",N 361,"The aim of this survey was to aid the interpretation of the remains of the substantial Augustinian Priory at West Acre, Norfolk to assist with the ongoing management of the monument. Whilst the survey revealed a number of potentially significant anomalies the data was of insufficient clarity to enable detailed interpretation or to fully gauge the relationship of these anomalies to the remains of the medieval Priory. ",N 363,"A geophysical survey was carried out at Cleeve Abbey near Washford in Somerset to locate any possible buried archaeological remains, in advance of the excavation of a new field drain through the land surrounding the monument. Results were somewhat disappointing owing to the alluvial drift geology of the area; nevertheless, a number of potential features were identified.",N 366,"The plots enclosed are based on the results of a resistivity survey undertaken at the site of Middleton Hall, Cumbria (SD 63 88, County Monument 494) by Dr D J Woolliscroft of Manchester University. The survey data was forwarded to the Ancient Monuments Laboratory for computer processing. The processed plots show that, although the site has responded well to the technique, the resistivity results simply corroborate those of the topographic survey and little additional information has been detected. Consequently the survey has not provided enough information to allow the earthworks to be confidently attributed to a particular period.",N 367,"A number of subsurface soil samples were recovered from two extant earthwork features along the central ridge of Farthing Down, Coulsdon, Surrey for subsequent magnetic measurement. The values obtained for the volume magnetic susceptibility of the samples were then used to estimate the character of magnetic anomaly that these features would create, to aid both the interpretation of the disappointing 1991 magnetometer survey and improve the provision of advice regarding the use of geophysics in evaluation of this site.",N 79,"Magnetometer survey was undertaken at Greys Farm, Wilsworthy, Cornwall in response to a request from the Cornwall Archaeological Unit. The aim of the survey was to investigate the location of a medieval settlement that was deserted in the 18th century. The survey succesfully mapped the site locating a number of ditches and pits. Unfortunately, due to time restraints, the survey was unable to delimit the archaeological activity completely. ",N 78,"Despite the publication of two major survey projects in the Stonehenge Environs, Stonehenge in its immediate landscape setting has never been subject to any detailed non-invasive investigation. This report describes geophysical exploration of Stonehenge and the triangle of land that encloses it (the 'Stonehenge Triangle') undertaken in 1993-4 by the Ancient Monuments Laboratory. The surveys were carried out on behalf of English Heritage and Wessex Archaeology for the Twentieth Century Excavations at Stonehenge Project and consisted of a magnetometer survey of the whole triangle and a detailed resistivity survey of the famous henge monument. The magnetometer results provide new information on monuments and features in the triangle, some already documented but not previously subject to detailed study or survey. The resistivity data enhances the existing body of excavation and survey evidence for the arrangement and structure of the henge monument in its various phases. Both surveys therefore make a significant contribution to further understanding the history of an area at the heart of a landscape of outstanding archaeological importance.",N 145,A geophysical survey was carried out over a findspot discovered in September 1993. The survey was commissioned to trace the extent of associated features found during excavation in order to determine an archaeological context and to assist in securing the future protection of any significant remains located. In addition the survey was designed to highlight the benefits to be gained by using geophysics in devising an appropriate response to such finds. Further archaeological features were detected around the findspot by magnetometer survey and a second potentially larger area of settlement or industrial activity was located by magnetic susceptibility survey and magnetometer scanning in a field north of the findspot. The results of the survey show that the find is likely to have lain within an area of previously unrecognised archaeological importance.,N 365,"This report summarises results from a series of geophysical surveys carried out by the Ancient Monuments Laboratory for the Central Excavation Unit at sites near Catterick in 1981-4. The surveys were successful in producing detailed plans of two Roman occupation sites, and also detected Iron Age cropmarks. Comparisons between the survey results and subsequent excavation findings are noted.",N 370,"This survey was conducted prior to the removal of topsoil from the majority of Cresswell field,Yarnton, Oxon. to facilitate the recording of archaeological features by the Oxford Archaeological Unit (OAU) in advance of its eventual destruction through gravel extraction. In defiance of the relatively disappointing geophysical results obtained from the Yarnton-Cassington Project area to date, the survey reported here has revealed a plethora of significant magnetic anomalies; these initial results have aided the precise location of the subsequent OAU excavation/recording programme.",N 372,"The resistance technique has responded extremely well at the site and provided remarkably clear results of the surviving wall foundations. Individual cells within the cloister range have been identified, together with further buildings to the north of the cloisters. The presumed western arm of the moat is also visible, though the line of a northern arm is still conjectural. A building in the north-western corner of the survey is tentatively interpreted as a former gatehouse. The detailed resistance plan and the earthworks survey should help significantly with the archaeological interpretation of the site.",N 373,"The resistance survey data at Beauvale Priory correlate well with the earthwork survey and has broadened the known archaeological content of the site. The cells, leat and other associated features have been clearly defined, though some regions of the survey have clearer and stronger anomalies than others.",N 375,"Both geophysical methods detected the two upstanding tumuli; better resolution was achieved with the resistivity survey but the gradiometer survey detected two features to the north and south of SMR 3587.11 which may be secondary burials. Neither of the other two survey grids produced any anomalies of probable archaeological interest. Resistivity rather than gradiometry probably represents the most appropriate methodology for surveys in densely wooded areas for features of this nature. However, should the gradiometer responses be due to secondary burials then this method should also prove valuable in the further analysis of sites located using resistivity. A lot of the strength of responses is probably due to the topography of the standing remains.",N 376,"Two linear anomalies were detected both by the gradiometer and the resistivity meter. They are possibly infilled ditches of ancient date, although a more recent agricultural origin (land drains) should not be discounted. An open sided circular anomaly with a second discrete anomaly nearby were detected by the gradiometer in the area where Roman material has been found and it is thought that they might be structural. It is not possible to tell whether the linear anomalies are associated with the circular features. The resistivity survey also detected areas of high resistance which may reflect structural features although a geological explanation is more likely.",N 378,"The resistance survey has provided a clear plan of the surviving priory remains, though in places the complexity of the data makes archaeological interpretation difficult. The results suggest a very good level of presentation of wall foundations. Apart from the great cloister and the associated monks' cells, several other buildings and walls have been identified. It should now be possible to secure a detailed picture of the site using the differing sources of archaeological evidence available to RCHME.",N 379,"The results from the resistance survey have shown that the archaeological remains extend east of the existing Beauvale Abbey Farm. A large rectangular building measuring approximately 9m by 26m, with a pathway leading to an entrance in the southern end of the eastern boundary wall, was evident within the data set. The resistance survey records the eastern boundary wall extending northwards and deviating eastwards from the present field boundary.",N 380,The resistivity survey has confirmed some of the findings of the earlier excavations. the priory chapel and some high resistance features depicting possible walls or rubble spreads are evident within the data.,N 381,"A geophysical survey was carried out at the chapel of St.Mary Magdelene in Durham to establish the extent of any surviving remains from the associated 14th C hospital. Results were disappointing due to the limited area available for the survey (0.06Ha), the awkward shape of the site, and the extensive disturbance from fences and walls which are less than 100 years old.",N 371,"Geophysical survey was undertaken at Hoe Hills, Dowsby, Lincs, in response to a request from the Fenland Management Project (FMP). An initial magnetometer survey was carried out in October 1994 to assist with the interpretation of multiperiod activity revealed by FMP excavations already under way at the site. Acting on the results of this survey the magnetometer coverage was extended during a second visit in March 1995 to encompass crop mark activity to the north of the excavations. Additionally this visit provided an opportunity to investigate the relationship between the archaeology and a former river channel also evident in the APs. The site conditions proved ideal for magnetometer and results of rare clarity were obtained. Widespread settlement activity was mapped and the former river course was also detected clearly. Unfortunately the results do not allow any confident conclusions to be drawn with regard to the relationship between the channel and the buried archaeology.",N 374,"Geophysical surveys were undertaken over three suspected barrow sites near Higham Ferrers, Northants in response to a request from the Raunds Area Project (RAP). The aim of the surveys was to confirm their presence, size and number of associated quarry ditches. It was also hoped that any related features, both internal and external, would be mapped. Magnetometer surveys were carried out in each case and a resistance survey was also conducted at one of the sites. The results of the magnetometer surveys successfully confirmed the presence of single ditched barrows at two of the sites with some evidence of internal features also being detected within one of these barrows. The resistance survey carried out at this latter site proved particularly informative and increased detail of internal structure was recorded. The results of the magnetometer survey from the third site were more enigmatic and an additional resistance survey is recommended here to clarify its interpretation.",N 384,"Geophysical survey was undertaken over a square triple-ditched enclosure (SAM Notts 56) at Holly House Farm, Scaftworth, near Bawtry, Notts, in response to a request from the Humber Wetlands Project. Resistivity and magnetometer surveys were carried out in an attempt to map the locations of the enclosure ditches (evident as crop marks on APs), locate any entrances and identify any internal features. The site conditions were particularly well suited to resistivity survey which clearly detected the main ditches and provided some evidence of internal structures. Additionally, the magnetometer survey detected some signs of activity within the enclosure as well as mapping a possible annex to the south. Unfortunately, no firm conclusions can be drawn on the basis of either survey as to the function of the enclosure.",N 385,"Magnetometer and resistivity surveys were undetaken in southern part of Vespasian's Camp, an Iron Age hillfort near Amesbury, Wilthsire. A semi-circular feature 30m in diameter was discovered abutting the southern rampart and is perhaps the remains of a Bronze Age barrow. With the exception of the hillfort defences themselves, no other obviously archaeological features were detected although this does not preclude their existence. Also, interference from twentieth century activity dominated much of the surveyed area.",N 386,"Magnetometer survey was undertaken at Mornington House Farm, Gosberton, Lincs., in response to a request from the Fenland Management Project (FMP). Fieldwalking had discovered a surface scatter of Saxon material, including 8 lava querns, and aerial photography indicated the presence of an enclosure near these finds. The aim of the geophysical survey was to attempt to map any buried archaeological features in advance of a programme of trial trenching by the FMP. The results were disappointing, however, and only very limited evidence of the Saxon activity subsequently revealed by excavation was detected by the magnetometer.",N 415,"A two week programme of geophysical survey was undertaken in the field immediately south of the `Castle Mound', Swavensey. Previous archaeological investigations by the Cambridge Archaeology Unit demonstrated the existence of a multi-phased settlement complex. Resistivity, magnetometry, susceptibiltiy, and ground radar survey detected the previous archaeological trial trenches. The survey confirmed the projected line of prehistoric ditches found in the trial trenches, indicated anomalies consistent with ridge and furrow, and suggested the existence of a possible rectangular building in the south eastern part of the field.",N 387,"Geophysical survey was undertaken at Baston Drove, Thurlby, Lincolnshire in response to a request from the Fenland Management Project (FMP). The aim of the survey was to assist with the interpretation of two trenches excavated by the FMP over concentrations of Romano-British material on the Fen Edge alongside the present course of the River Glen. A rectilinear pattern of enclosures was detected as well as a number of probable pits. Superimposed on these were a large number of very intense positive magnetic anomalies of a form and magnitude normally associated with thermoremanent magnetic features such as kilns or hearths. A test pit was subsequently hand-excavated over one of these anomalies and revealed that the magnetometer was apparently responding to a naturally-occurring iron-rich deposit, possibly an iron pan. The intensity of the magnetism associated with these deposits remains unexplained, however, although it is possible that a chemical remanence has been acquired during their formation. Further laboratory work is currently being undertaken to investigate the magnetic character of these deposits. The results of these endeavours will be reported upon in due course.",N 388,"Magnetometer and magnetic susceptibility survey of some 4.5 hectares of a later prehistoric lithic scatter was undertaken at Eye Hill Farm, Soham, Cambs. Whilst most of the area was magnetically undisturbed, or interrupted only by modern features, some very limited and dispersed evidence of archaeological activity was identified. There does not appear to be a significant correlation between topsoil magnetic susceptibility and the distributions of burnt or unburnt flint.",N 389,"Geophysical survey was undertaken over a Middle Iron Age site at Fen Farm, Pinchbeck, Lincs., in response to a request from the Fenland Management Project (FMP). The survey, undertaken whilst a FMP excavation was in progress, was intended to place any excavated features in their wider context. Although failing to detect any obvious features adjacent to the excavation, the magnetometer survey did map a rectilinear field system of probable Roman origin. The magnetometer results support the evidence from the excavation which suggests that the site is unlikely to have been in the immediate vicinity of a contemporary settlement.",N 390,"This interim report summarises the results of the magnetometer surveys undertaken during 1992-4 by the Ancient Monuments Laboratory over a major Roman industrial site discovered during the laying of a water main at Lower Farm, Nuneham Courtenay, Oxon. In total an area of nearly 10ha has now been surveyed and a detailed plan of Roman enclosures, kilns and trackways has been revealed with great clarity. The suitablility of the underlying Jurassic geology in affording highly informative results from magnetometer survey has been amply demonstrated. These results, combined with OAU field walking data, clearly indicate that the site has not as yet been fully delimited and that the archaeological activity, which includes both a prehistoric and medieval component, extends well beyond the eastern edge of the surveyed area. Further survey work, allied to more comprehensive interpretation, and publication is anticipated.",N 391,"During an excavation at Hinxton Quarry, undertaken by the Cambridgeshire Archaeological Unit prior to borrow pitting for gravel extraction, an iron Age cemetery containing eight cremation burials was discovered, near the south eastern edge of the excavated area. The Ancient Monuments Laboratory was asked to carry out a geophysical survey in farmland adjacent to the excavation to determine whether the cemetery continued into the neighbouring field. Unfortunately, conditions at the site were not particularly favourable for the detection of the subtle anomalies usually produced by these types of remains and it was not possible to conclusively deduce whether or not the cemetery continued into the surveyed field. Nevertheless, a number of pit-like anomalies were detected in another part of the field which exhibited properties characteristic of deliberate burning.",N 392,"A limited magnetometer survey was conducted at Cocks Farm Roman villa to complement the resistivity and topsoil magnetic susceptibility results collected by the Surrey Archaeological Society. It was hoped that the application of geophysical techniques would augment the results of the Society's recent excavations at this site. The magnetometer survey successfully detected a number of linear anomalies, although the quality of the data does not support a wholly conclusive interpretation. This report provides an interim summary of both the magnetometer and resistivity surveys prior to more detailed analysis of the data within the excavation report.",N 393,"A geophysical survey on the site of the Roman villa at Park Farm near Snettisham, Norfolk, was requested by the landowner Mr E. Stanton, to improve the understanding of remains uncovered there during 1971-2. Although ground conditions made it impossible to detect traces of the villa building itself, evidence was found for possible associated activity. This included several putative defensive ditches and a number of anomalies almost certainly associated with iron working. A limited survey was also carried out at a second and unrelated site on the farm, thought to be the location of a medieval chapel. Results at this site were less clear but a possible wall footing was detected.",N 394,"Magnetic surveys were undertaken at Westwoodside, Humberside, in response to a request from the Humber Wetlands Project. Their aim was to investigate surface finds of prehistoric material (including 3 bronze socketed axes, a flint tranchet axe, a dolerite axe, and many flints). It was hoped that the survey would map any subsurface features associated with these finds and thereby identify a site for consideration for scheduling by the Monuments Protection Programme of English Heritage. Despite a generally subdued magnetic response, a limited number of potentially significant features were located. Additionally, a possible focus of activity is suggested by a zone of heightened magnetic response and a corresponding enhancement of topsoil magnetic susceptibility.",N 404,"Resistivity and fluxgate gradiometer surveys were carried out on the outer bailey at Helmsley Castle to establish whether any structures survive in this area. The resistivity survey revealed one area of high resistance which might indicate the remains of a structure. this was adjacent to an area of low resistance that might be due to 20th century infilling. A later, high resistance anomaly cuts across the infilled area. This was visible as an earthwork. Problems were encountered due to the excessive dryness of the soil. The gradiometer survey identified two areas of magnetic disturbance, one of which falls within the presumed area of infilling.",N 406,"A geophysical survey was undertaken in the gardens of West Bower Manor in Somerset to try and establish the extent of any surviving walls and features relating to the layout of the 15thC manor. The survey has identified a series of long linear anomalies: although because of extensive disturbance, it is difficult to establish direct relationships between them. The position of the 16th-17thC dovecote has been located, along with recently demolished 19thC farm sheds.",N 405,"Resistivity and fluxgate gradiometer surveys were carried out over part of the scheduled monument at Walton-Le-Dale to identify elements of the Roman Settlement. The resistivity survey revealed a broad band of high resistance running approximately north-south on an alignment similar to the supposed course of a Roman road observed in previous excavations. Narrower high resistance linears were also apparent both perpendicular and parallel to this feature. Some of the larger blocks of high resistance appear to have been caused by tree roots, or recent buildings. The gradiometer survey was severely affected by modern debris on the surface particularly in the north-east and south-east corners of the survey. However, some linear anomalies as well as a broad positive anomaly were identified. These are of a likely archaeological nature.",N 407,The GPR survey demonstrated swiftly and non-intrusively the presence of the top part of the weathering cone above the Wilsford shaft.This rapid reconnaisance survey did not demonstrate the presence of other buried shafts under the six pond barrows investigated. Features not inconsistent with the presence of a shaft were found at two sites. At three sites there were distict continuous features which appeared incompatible with infilled buried shafts.,N 408,The GPR survey of three small sites on the Somerset Sweet Track succesfully located the position and depth of the buried trackway.,N 409,"A survey of about 2ha of this Iron Age hillfort was conducted after the removal of dense pine needle litter and surface vegetation from a trial area within its interior. The aim of this clearance was to facilitate the reinstatement of the original heathland environment that thrived on the site prior to its utilisation for commercial afforestation during the 1950s. An archaeological evaluation, through both geophysical survey (reported upon here) and subsequent hand excavated test-pits, was requested to aid the interpretation of the monument and to amplify the results of a topographic survey conducted in 1989 by RCHME. Despite the particularly quiet response encountered the magnetometer survey has successfully indicated the presence of a number of potentially significant anomalies. The most obvious of these, a ditch-type anomaly inside the W ramparts, concurs with the location of linear earthworks identified during the topographic survey. The significance of a scatter of discrete pit-type anomalies is difficult to ascertain and the interpretation of these results will, no doubt, be clarified by the availability of subsequent test-pit evaluation data.",N 410,"A small-scale geophysical survey was carried out over the location where a cluster of 9th century AD coins had been discovered with a metal detector. Few anomalies likely to have been caused by archaeological features were detected, suggesting that the find location was remote from any contemporary early Medieval settlement. At present time (November 1995), for reasons of security, this report is not available on request through the AML Reports Series.",N 411,"The resistance survey has identified a complex of anomalies that, given their alignment in relation to the surviving masonry remains, may be associated with the Abbey. Areas of high resistance readings, particularly in the southern half of the survey, indicate the existence of former buildings, courtyards or similar remains. Near to the centre of the survey area there is a large, low resistance, linear anomaly crossing the grid that may mark the line of a major ditch or water channel. To the north of this line are several anomalies, both high and low resistance, that also appear of interest. While some follow the general North-South, East-West alignment, others do not. One possible interpretation for the observed responses is that they are associated with former garden features such as flower beds and paths.",N 412,"0.15 HA of pastureland around SP1282 1547 immediately to the E of Hill House Farm, Northleach with Easington, Glos. was surveyed by magnetometer in advance of possible development in order to assess its archaeological content. Two linear gullies were detected, forming the angle of a possible agricultural enclosure or field. These were related to a similar features revealed just to the W of the survey area by excavation in 1977 which were dated to the Roman period.",N 417,"The gradiometer has identified a great number of anomalies within the sample areas. In many cases the anomalies are believed to represent drainage / ridge and furrow. Despite these anomalies a number of potentially archaeologically sensitive areas has been noted. Some of the anomalies have been found to be roughly correlated with increased magnetic susceptibility levels, which supports the possible archaeologial interpretation.",N 423,"The fieldwork only had limited success due to technical problems and only partially answered the research aims. The Priddy Circles still have not been proved to be a single entity. The possible existance of a fifth henge has not been proved or disproved, though no evidence for such a structure was identified.",N 424,"The geophysical survey suggests an internal ditch is associated with the western perimeter bank of the enclosure. The results, which indicate that a ditch also surrounds the internal cross shaped earthwork, are consistent with those of the excavations carried out in 1961. The surveys revealed few suggestions that remains of occupation activity are present within the enclosure. As a consequence of the disturbed nature of the site, archaeological interpretations of any of the anomalies located by the survey remain tentative.",N 425,"The purpose of this resistivity survey is to investigate the area to the south and south-east of the south transept of Bordesley Abbey. The primary aims are to validate a plan of the abbey published in 1866; investigate the interpretations of an earthwork survey published in 1976; and to locate the monk's latrine block. This survey has shown that the 1866 plan has features of the abbey misplaced and unrecorded. The earthwork survey, although basically correct, only gives a general indication of the position and form of the features. The monk's latrine block, as expected, may be located adjacent to the south-east corner of the eastern range of the cloister. This survey also shows the position of a late 20th century water pipe which runs through the site; and indicates a relationship between the archaeological features and the occurence of nettles on the site.",N 428,"The various techniques employed in the survey have been able to demonstrate the structures relating to the monastic buildings do appear to remain, but robbing has accounted for losses, particularly on the eastern side. A good correlation has been found with the documentary evidence, particularly in regard to the mansion, the walled garden and field boundaries. Little light has been shed on the shape and extent of the fishponds but in contrast an interesting hitherto unknown area of hollow-ways or ditches and embankments has been discovered in the southern part of the hollow.",N 429,"Despite the difficulties encountered in surveying the castle grounds, the survey may have located the course of the curtain wall on the northern side of the castle. A low resistance response further to the north may indicate the position of the ditch. The position of the wall on the eastern side is more doubtful. The resistance survey failed to locate any traces of internal structures due to a number of complicating factors.",N 430,"The gradiometer results suggest intense occupation activity both inside and outside the castle. Several pit and hearth type responses were detected that may be associated with buildings. A number of ditch type anomalies were also recorded and while some may be associated with modern drains or geological effects others are likely to be archaeological. It is possible that these anomalies indicate an extension of the settlement beyond the defences of the castle and/or occupation of earlier prehistoric or Roman date. The resistance survey provided few clear indications that building remains are present in the bailey of the castle. Several areas of high resistance were recorded which may indicate building debris and lengths of possible walls or the remains of earthworks. In general, the results are considered to represent variations in ground surface conditions, localised responses from trees and shrubs, and possibly landscaping and bedrock effects. In the field to the south of the bailey a linear high resistance response may be the remains of a building, though a modern origin seems equally likely.",N 432,"The results of the investigation have shown the hypocaust to consist of a series of substantial piers and pillars, with heating channels of c.300-700mm in width between them arranged in a random crisscross pattern across the entire floor area.",N 434,"The survey of sites A, I and J have been combined to form one large composite. It is in this area that most anomalies were found. Many show good correlation with the cropmarks plotted from aerial photographs. The most obvious of these are the crop marks in Site J. The results from the other sites are, in the main, rather disappointing - an indication of the low magnetic enhancement and resistivity contrast of the soils. No clear indication of the eastern sides of the marching camps were found though a linear resistance anomaly in Site A may be a ditch associated with one of the camps.",N 435,Anomalies produced by archaeological features have been found in two of the three areas surveyed. The villa was successfully relocated and found to be an element within a larger series of archaeological features. In neither Area B nor C did the surveys establish the limits of the archaeology. The results from Area A are difficult to interpret due to what are probably geological complications.,N 437,"The survey located a number of anomalies of possible archaeological potential. Some responses related to cropmarks identified from aerial photographs, although there was a difference in their precise location. The site was affected in some areas by strong ferrous disturbance, which may have concealed responses from other possible archaeological features. Some of the ferrous disturbance may not be of modern origin.",N 442,"In the north of the area a series of linear, magnetic anomalies were located which appear to be associated with archaeological features known to survive to the north-west of the survey area. Other linear anomalies occur in the remaining areas of the survey, although it is difficult to be certain about their archaeological significance. The south-western part of the survey showed evidence of a large amount of disturbance. This is purported to be due to the presence of a 17th or 18th-century brick quarry on the site.",N 446,"1. The interpretation diagram shows a general spread of anomalies across the area. The principal feature is a sub-rectangular 'enclosure' at the north end of the site with a spread of anomalies that may be pits and short lengths of ditch, to the south. The cause of these anomalies is considered to be anthropogenic. 2. It is noteworthy that the magnetic anomalies are similar across the whole of the surveyed area and do not change with the break of slope and its postulated geological change. 3. The orientation of the 'enclosure' is very similar to the stone walling which lies within 20m to the east in the garden of the house on the north east corner of the site.",N 447,"The gradiometer survey revealed an area of high resistivity to the west of the presumed edge of the cemetery as well as two low resistance linear features running at right angles to each other. Slight irregularities on the east edge of the area of high resistance may represent the continuation of grave cuts up to this edge. The possibility that the area of high resistance is caused by archaeological features, such as either the dovecote or medieval manor, should not be discounted despite the most probable explanation for the rise in resistivity being due to a change in the underlying geology. The earthwork survey and contour survey results show that two of three possible fish ponds exist on the site with a small channel connecting one of these to the stream forming the site's southern boundary.",N 452,"The survey recorded few anomalies that might be considered to be archaeologically significant. Magnetically strong ditch type responses were recorded that establish the position of parts of the southern and northern boundaries of the Pimperne Enclosure. Elsewhere, isolated pit responses were detected, though their interpretation as being of archaeological interest remains tentative. Where survey areas were located adjacent to the roadside, numerous modern ferrous anomalies complicated interpretation of the results.",N 453,"A geophysical survey was undertaken over a scatter of Bronze Age pottery, flint and burnt cobbles at Hagnaby Lock, Stickford, Lincolnshire, in response to a request from the Fenland Management Project (FMP). It was hoped that the survey would locate any buried archaeological features and thus aid the location of FMP trial trenches.

A magnetometer scan between the survey and the 1940 excavations located no further anomalies.,Y 297,"Magnetometer survey has located an extensive scatter of anomalies on the lower part of the field. These vary from those indistinguishable from background noise to substantial peaks, possibly suggesting features of industrial origin.",Y 336,"Magnetometer results show a lack of conspicuous anomalies. Despite often intense interference from modern iron, conditions should be good for detecting archaeology (see previous survey.

Resistivity could only locate uncertain traces near to the excavation. Wenner and Double Dipole configurations used over a traverse failed to clarify the Twin-electrode survey.,Y 350,"Some magnetic anomalies with possible archaeological origins were detected, as were some likely wall or earthwork outlines by the resistivity survey. Overall the concentration of features was insubstantial but allowance should be made for difficult geological conditions.",Y 351,Contigous enclosures and a probable roadway evident on aerial photographs have been confirmed by the magnetometer survey along with evidence for occupation activity within some of the enclosures.,Y 353,"Despite the difficulties caused by surveying several small parcels of land, the resistivity survey located several massive wall footings. The drains on the other hand have not been clearly traced except in a small area.",Y 354,Good evidence for buried features has been found in field 8656 and concentrates towards the proposed junction of the Roman roads. No such evidence was found in field 9640. The topsoil MS measurements confirmed the scanning.,Y 355,"Resistivity survey was successful in locating the ditches of the cursus, and in reasonable agreement with the aerial photographs. Magnetometer survey was unable to detect the southern ditch but possibly showed the northern ditch as a weak positive anomaly.",Y 343,"The survey located the barrow ditch and a previously unknown enclosure at site B, where the clay-with-flints sub-soil was absent. At site A the magnetic susceptibility of the topsoil was low, and only two linear anomalies were located not apparently related to the known barrow structure. Subsequent excavation found no evidence for the barrow at site A.",Y 339,"Three sample squares situated next to excavated areas were surveyed by magnetometer, which responded to a variety of archaeological features. It was concluded that magnetic results from the site should serve to indicate areas of likely archaeological significance. A scan in the field to the north located only weak anomalies.",Y 338,"Response from the area surveyed detected little disturbance by anomalies from archaeological features, the only anomaly of note proving to be natural upon subsequent excavation. There was a liberal presence of iron interference over the site.",Y 329,"The site appears to have responded satisfactorily to the techniques used, but findings were limited. The outer ditch of the bailey was located by magnetometer as well as some weak anomalies, and the resistivity survey detected strong anomalies without any clear definition. Despite this, evidence of substantial buildings or intensive occupation were lacking.",Y 333,Survey results were disppointing and no significant anomalies were recorded. As the area is archaeologically active it was thought that the lack of contrast between fills and the background sand and gravel soils may have contributed to the negative results.,Y 325,Large parts of the earthwork interior were magnetically blank with a few exceptions concentrated in the southern part of the field and nearest to the parish church. Topsoil magnetic susceptibility values were high enough for detecting substantial features if there had been any still existing.,Y 323,The survey has demonstrated that the ditch continues to the north-west but it was not clear whether or not it terminated within the area of the survey. A lack of any other clear magnetic activity suggest that there were no substantial features associated with past occupation.,Y 322,"On the evidence of the survey the site appears to have been subject to archaeologically significant disturbance, but the nature of the activity is not clear. There is no magnetic anomaly which could unambiguously represent a kiln.",Y 327,"The resistivity survey produced strong anomalies which could represent debris from a building or group of buildings. Modern disturbance has been suggested by the magnetometer survey, which provided no clear evidence for occupation.",Y 320,"Resistivity clearly demonstrated the existence of the ditch, the anomaly being a little more distinct in the results from the Wenner configuration survey.

No significant masonry remains were detected between the hall and the manor house.",Y 317,"Scanning over the greater part of the area was unproductive locating only isolated anomalies, which were subsequently tested by auger. Some of these contained burnt materials suggestive of industrial activity. Only two anomalies were within the threatened area.",Y 314,"Magnetic response throughout the site is subdued, and anomalies that may be related to archaeological remains are all but absent.

There was little of the disturbance usually associated with roman buildings, so the pattern might be related to cultivation.",Y 315,"Part of this extended area was limited by the presence of trees and undergrowth, and affected by modern ferrous material. However the rest of the surveyed area was relatively interference free yet no apparently archaeological anomalies were detected.",Y 318,"Soil susceptibiltiy values were extremely high in the area and the resulting noisy background has obscured or confused all but the most obvious archaeological anomalies. Despite this, the major ditch anomalies and a few smaller features can be isolated, and complement excavation and aerial photographic evidence.",Y 307,"Some striking anomalies and highly disturbed magnetic background were detected over many parts of the area surveyed, which are directly due to the presence of thermo-remanently magnetised structures or objects in the soil. However, as the soil itself is not very magnetic any weak anomalies suggesting other settlement activity may have been obscured. A detailed scan in the area to the south-west was unproductive. ",Y 306,The survey has produced little evidence for earthworks except for possible ditches marked by weak magnetic anomalies. No clear resistivity evidence was found to indicate the presence of banks or buildings.,Y 304,"No significant magnetic disturbance was located by the scan, and the broad anomalies detected by resistivity appear not to be archaeological in origin. The lack of response could be due to the depth of sand over any archaeological features.",Y 303,"The survey detected very little response from anomalies likely to be archaeological, partly because of disturbance from metal piles and trees. The areas not so disturbed were magnetically quiet.",Y 301,"Magnetometer survey suggested that at least half of the field had had some sort of magnetic disturbance, further augering indicating that the activity could well be associated with past occupation of the site. On the other hand the resistivity survey failed to resolve any structural remains.",Y 302,"Conditions are suitable for magnetic detection of buried anomalies although the background noise present could have been enough to obscure minor anomalies. Although it is not clear if the noise is modern, only a few other possibly archaeological linear anomalies were detected in the southern part of the survey.",Y 299,"No anomalies of obvious archaeological origin were detected by the recorded magnetometer survey, and only one small anomaly was found by scanning in the surrounding area. There were difficulties conducting this survey due to the thick undergrowth and scatter of iron litter on the surface. ",Y 295,"Linear anomalies detected by the magnetometer survey probably represent ditches, but other weaker anomalies were not distinct enough to be interpreted as graves, although the lack of obvious occupation evidence would be consistent with the presence of a cemetery.",Y 294,"Cropmarks on two of the sites were detected as anomalies by the magnetometer survey, but not at the third site. On all sites small weak anomalies which could represent pits were observed. The variation between the sites does not relate to their respective magnetic susceptibility values. ",Y 293,"No clear evidence for the existence of a cemetery was obtained, however there were two weak magnetic anomalies of suitable dimensions for graves which might benefit from further tests.",Y 161,"The surveyed area has been shown to be rich in archaeology, and this is likely to continue over a much larger area. Phosphate tests were also positive confirming occupation on the site.",Y 247,"The survey has confirmed the large extent of the site, and shown some of the density of features within the area including a rectilinear ditch system. However few specific features of the fort can be proved from the survey alone.",Y 298,"This survey has outlined the most definitive part of the Roman defence system yet, and has further extended the evidence for internal and external, structural and occupation features. ",Y 310,The eastern and north-eastern edges of the fort were clearly defined allowing the external plan of the fort to now be positioned with some confidence.,Y 308,"The initial magnetometer scan showed that although large areas were unresponsive, groups of anomalies could be detected throughout the area. The strength of response falls off to the north, as does the magnetic susceptibility of the topsoil. Of the areas tested with more detailed magnetometer survey, those nearer to the 1981 survey are more magnetically active.",Y 292,"The magnetic evidence was mostly negative except for some general areas of amorphous noise. The resistivity showed clear high resistance anomalies, but these were discontinuous and irregular and subsequent augering revealed no archaeological deposits.",Y 289,The plotted survey located the enclosure ditches and a pattern of rectilinear anomalies . Extensive scanning throughout the field suggested that the main archaeological activity was restricted to the SW corner.,Y 300,"Topsoil magnetic susceptibility was high enough to contrast well with the chalk conditions at the site. However the scan revealed a widespread absence of anomalous disturbance apart from plough furrow and an earlier excavation trench. Although no major site was located, the slight features that define such a site might not be detectable. ",Y 296,A group of anomalies were located in the north-east of the southernmost field and isolated anomalies elsewhere. Magnetic susceptibility was higher to the south of the site. ,Y 359,"Despite a very low level of resistance in the wet clay-based soil, the survey has located part of an internal enclosure system, with the possibility of building foundations on the margins of the interior. Magnetic scanning was unproductive. ",Y 283,"Nothing of demonstrable archaeological significance was found. However those anomalies that did show up were weak, and it is possible that archaeological features have gone undetected.",Y 282,Most of the anomalies detected could be attributed to modern ferrous material with the exception of one which itself was probably affected by a nearby iron shed. Auger samples did produce charcoal fragments but not burnt clay. Scanning in the next field found it to be undisturbed apart from modern interference.,Y 276,"Despite the presence of clinker below the tarmac surface, fragmentary evidence of underlying archaeology has been detected through the noise. However given the density of features expected from adjacent excavations the survey presents a rather incomplete picture.",Y 277,"With the exception of a tentative feature, perhaps a small pit, there is no other magnetic evidence for ancient iron-working in the area.",Y 271,Extensive scanning of the site suggests that the remaining pottery site is restricted to the small area already sampled by excavation. Two significant anomalies were located nearby.,Y 275,"Survey over the threatened area has provided little more than negative evidence. The recorded area has not shown the presence of any substantial archaeological activity, however the scanning of the area to the south was affected by dumps of rubbish and iron. ",Y 278,"The survey has clarified the outline of the enclosure and its relationships with other ditch alignments. Interior features are thinly represented, but magnetic susceptibility was low and there has probably been some degredation of the soil. The area suspected of containing a cremation cemetery was blank of anomalies.",Y 280,"Up to six anomalies were located that could represent buried kilns, as well as enough linear features to define a system of enclosures. The results of a field walking exercise by the CEU carried out in conjunction with the survey showed a clear correlation of high pottery concentration within the boundaries of the enclosure system.",Y 274,Neither of the geophysical survey methods used has added much of substance to the medieval layout. The only exception being a couple of areas of high resistance suggesting better preservation of stone remains than elsewhere on the site.,Y 268,"The magnetometer survey has confirmed and located the most important cropmarks, although these are very faint, and the supposed curses ditches are almost completely undetectable. Resistivity traverses across some of the cropmarks and magnetic anomalies showed no significant anomalous readings. ",Y 254,"Magnetic susceptibility readings are very low in the area, and the readings were also obscured by iron rings set in the ground. However some weak anomalies were present. The resistivity traverses failed to locate clear evidence for a ditch.",Y 265,Site has a very high magnetic susceptibility and as a result cultivation patterns are clearly defined. However no conspicuous anomalies of an archaeological type were detected with the exception of a minor part of the enclosure shown on aerial photographs.,Y 260,Conditions at the site were not favourable for magnetic detection and only a small number of anomalies were detected. There was no specific response from the area where cremation urns had been found.,Y 281,"Magnetometer scanning detected only a few weak anomalies some of which were further surveyed by plotting. The responses recorded were again weak for supposed kilns, however scanning over known ditches being excavated at the time also failed to respond. Magnetic susceptibility measurements of the topsoil, subsoil, and excavated features showed the subsoil to be exceptionally non magnetic, although the topsoil readings were not themselves low.",Y 286,The site has a strongly magnetic topsoil and gave a clear and detailed response to the magnetometer survey adding considerable detail to the plan as known from APs. ,Y 287,The ring ditch was detected clearly but neither the central mound nor the outer bank responded to the survey . Other ditch like anomalies were located outside the enclosure and a number of weak isolated anomalies within.,Y 288,Topsoil magnetic susceptibiltiy was very high and the survey indicated plenty of archaeological activity within the enclosure . Scanning to the north of the main enclosure confirmed the presence of a substantial outer ditch to a third enclosure.,Y 263,"Initial readings from the southern area underlain by serpentine rock were far in excess of anything to be expected from prehistoric features. Consequently only the northern area, underlain by gabbro and of quiet magnetic background, was surveyed in detail. Several anomalies were detected but subsequent augering and test trenching suggest that these may have been natural in origin. ",Y 261,"There was only a weak and fragmentary response to the outer ditch of the rectangular enclosure, which suggests that the survey findings may be incomplete elsewhere. The survey does indicate the presence of ditches and pits at the west side of the field, perhaps signifying slight remains of an occupied site.",Y 253,"The survey clearly detected an occupation site and rectangular enclosure within the circular ditch of the henge. Soil conditions were such that the response from the site varied according to the location of features in relation to the settlement which provides a source of magnetically enriched soil, and consequently not all the cropmarks were detectable.",Y 248,The rising ground close to the Baker platform provided no magnetic evidence for the existence of closely related archaeological features. More widespread magnetic scanning suggests that there may be detectable archaeological features in the vicinity but these are sporadic and of unknown association.,Y 246,Magnetometer survey was ineffective due to the effects of iron objects near the surface over much of the site. However the test area surveyed by resistivity did detect some sub-surface features although without excavation the nature of these cannot be determined.,Y 241,"Magnetometer scanning located a number of areas of significant anomalies and two of these were further surveyed in detail. The resultant plots revealed a linear arrangement in one area possibly representing enclosures and trackways. The other area suggested the possibility of localised settlement. Magnetic susceptibility was high, particularly on the higher ground and this may have masked more discreet features. ",Y 240,"A large number of linear anomalies were located by the survey, mostly barely detectable against the natural magnetic background. These appear to represent ancient field systems which extend well beyond the limits of the survey area.",Y 243,"Soil conditions and the character of the site were not favourable to geophysical investigation, and a further complication was caused by the change in geology due to the outcrop of quartzite. Structural remains seem to have been detected at the centre of the survey by the resistivity survey. Magnetometer survey has shown only increased activity over the Villa area and anomalies to the north.",Y 250,The existence of an entrance could not be demonstrated by a direct test on the bank itself because the response from the mixed earth and chalk fill was too erratic. The only anomaly detected which could be identified with any confidence was a ditch located by the magnetometer survey close to the bank and the excavation.,Y 357,Despite a suitable magnetic susceptibility contrast between the topsoil and the subsoil no remains of extensive occupation or industrial activity were detected. However the survey confirmed the presence of a number of ditches and pits. ,Y 227,"The part of the survey near to the temple detected only scattered anomalies with possible fragments of ditches. Survey further to the east suggests that there may be parallel ditches leading to the temple, and this area also contained more occupation like anomalies. Scanning showed the rest of the field to be mostly magnetically quiet with only one disturbed area, which corresponded to surface finds. ",Y 235,"The site had a strong magnetic susceptibility contrast between the topsoil and subsoil and consequently it was thought unlikely that major features would remain undetected. The survey confirmed most of the known cropmarks and detected other features as well, however there were exceptions including a possible cursus ditch which although observed on APs was not detected in the survey.",Y 228,"The response to the survey was inadequate to permit any reliable estimate of the extent of the site. The only well-defined anomalies were two ditches and a recently filled pit. Of the various small local anomalies, some of the weaker ones could possibly have represented graves but the density of distibution was much less than that found in the nearby excavation.",Y 236,"The survey produced no clear evidence of any archaeological disturbance of the site, however some small anomalies were detected and one area of increased magnetic noise. The underlying sand and gravel may result in only a partial response to features so negative findings cannot be conclusive.",Y 229,Archaeological features likely to be associated with the villa were detected on both the East and West sides of the present wood. These included an anomaly characteristic of a kiln which was augered to find a burnt layer 45 cm below ground level. No archaeological disturbance was found to the North or south.,Y 226,"The underlying serpentine and other metamorphic rock is strongly magnetic and this makes it difficult to detect any but the most conspicuous features. Consequently the survey was only able to locate one anomaly that might be caused by burnt clay, and a slight pattern of linear anomalies which might represent a small enclosure. ",Y 225,Magnetic susceptibility reading for granite topsoil was low enough for archaeological features to be detectable against the background noise. However the survey failed to detect anything other than a few small anomalies and a weak linear feature.,Y 230,"The survey located a few well-defined features within the earthwork together with many smaller anomalies despite a generally disturbed background caused by the metamorphic rock. A strong linear anomaly crossing the enclosure could not be traced beyond by further scanning, but a ditch was found to encircle the enclosure at the foot of the surviving bank.",Y 256,Initial impression from the magnetometer survey was that there were no normally detectable archaeological features present. However a large number of minor but sharp peaks were located on the plots and these have been interpreted as a distinct and well-defined scatter of burnt sarsen. Soil susceptibility was high for a chalk site and this may further indicate occupation or industrial activity. Anomalies identified by scanning were confirmed by excavation as a pit and two post-holes. ,Y 257,"The survey has confirmed much that was already known or suspected about the castle but has added little of its own account, probably due to the complexity and various states of preservation of the features.",Y 222,"Despite potentially good conditions for magnetic detection, the ditch system and allied features recognizable as cropmarks were only partially visible. This may be due to the narrowness of the features or truncation from ploughing. ",Y 223,"The survey was restricted by instrumental problems and poor weather. However the survey was still able to locate the stronger and more continuous anomalies, indicating that in normal circumstances, conditions for magnetic detection would be very good. ",Y 255,There was an overall lack of definition in the survey which may well have been due to the saturated nature of the soil at that time of year. Some linear anomalies that might represent buried walls or banks were detected.,Y 221,Magnetic scanning showed the area to be highly disturbed by spurious anomalies from surface iron. The resistivity traverses detected nothing more than a few minor anomalies.,Y 321,"The survey was successful in clearly locating the main ditch of the monument, but very little else of possible archaeological significance was detected. Soil susceptibility was unusually high for a site on chalk.",Y 312,"Industrial features, defined by the presence of baked clay or burnt soil have been detected as aggregates of anomalies in the northern part of the survey. Other parts of the grid were either quiet or contained only weak or poorly defined anomalies. The response from the conspicuous mounds on the site were unexceptional. Cursory scanning beyond the grid to east and west confirmed the general pattern of magnetic disturbance in the north-western part of the grid.",Y 330,"The surveys provide little evidence of substantial archaeological remains other than the superficial earthworks visible in the field. Both techniques detected the banks, possibly associated with ramparts enclosing the Roman site beyond. An arbitrarily placed auger hole produced charcoal specks at a depth of 80-90cm, material which it was thought could have contributed to the noisy magnetic response. ",Y 207,"The survey confirms the presence of widespread buried remains over much of the Cleavel Point area. Magnetic susceptibilty is extremely high allowing for quite detailed planning of ditch systems and isolated industrial activity and occupation features, but the pattern is likely to be confused where the concentration of such features is high. Scanning on the marsh flats to the north showed that anomalies were present but infrequent, possibly lost to erosion.",Y 232,"As in the previous survey in the next field, magnetic response was very strong and this has resulted in a clear identification of a system of ditched enclosures. A clear boundary to the site has been discovered to the north-west and further evidence of industrial activity has been detected. Two magnetic susceptibility traverses were sampled for measurement in the laboratory and showed highest values over the thickest concentratons of features with the exception of high readings at the north and south extremes possibly due to the waterlogged esturine conditions found there ( Results of the MS traverses are to be found in AML Report No. 3471).",Y 264,"Although the pattern of enclosures found in the previous surveys continues into this field, there is a less evidence for industrial activity, anomalies being on the whole rather weak. This impression of a slackening in activity towards the western edge of the area surveyed has been confirmed by controlled fieldwalking.",Y 358,"Some slight evidence for archaeological features was located on the eastern margin of the site, although the magnetic evidence was much obscured by interference. There was no evidence of a continuation of the perimeter of the site to the west of the river Lea, or of any significant anomalies within the interior.",Y 262,"The data from this resistivity survey was processed by the AM Laboratory. The circular plan of the barrow was clearly detected. Subsequent excavation showed that a ring of low readings represented the ditch, and the high readings are caused by two concentric stone kerbs.",Y 326,No magnetic anomalies were detected by scanning that would justify further recorded survey. Magnetic susceptibility values showed a variable range which were either average or above average for chalklands soil.,Y 233,"The survey has located a number of subsurface features and it is possible to say that most of the extant banks are constructed of earth, however there was no definate association of buried anomalies with the surface features. An area of probable industrial activity was also detected, and scanning further afield could only detect existing banks and postglacial deposits.",Y 364,"The survey has provided a detailed picture of an extensive site centering on a large square-ditched enclosure adjoining a much used roadway. Strong and irregular anomalies suggest occupation or industrial activity, and the probable position of a structure has been detected within the main enclosure.",Y 213,Soil conditions were such that the magnetometer survey failed to respond to the ring ditches showing as cropmarks. However other areas of magnetic activity characteristic of occupation were apparant but of confused plan. The resistivity traverses probably indicate the presence of a ditch surrounding the mound. ,Y 211,"Despite magnetic 'noise' from the background soil and spurious pieces of surface iron, the survey was able to clearly identify the ring ditch and a central anomaly likely to be a burial. ",Y 209,"The survey detected a scatter of anomalies in the surveyed area, although most of these are more likely to be pits and ditches rather than kilns. A brief scan of the surrounding area indicated additional anomalies to the north.",Y 214,Resistivity traverses taken at four locations within the abbey precinct detected linear high resistance anomalies.,Y 251,"Resistivity measurements have confirmed the presence and suggested something of the layout of buildings which appear to be part of the Infirmary Hall, and which lie to the west of a linear feature interpreted as the eastern boundary of the complex. Magnetic evidence for archaeological features was limited to a few discrete anomalies. ",Y 193,Surveyed by B. Turton and plotted and reported by Ancient Monuments Lab. A number of features were detected that would be consistent with the response to be expected from walls or foundations. At least one comparatively well defined ditch was located.,Y 238,"The density of archaeological features seen in adjacent excavation trenches continues to the north as a variety of plainly detectable magnetic anomalies. Settlement and/or industrial activity seems likely, and would account for the strong magnetic enhancement here.",Y 204,The survey has detected anomalies marking out what appears to be a linear group of enclosures which extend beyond the limits of the survey in all directions. Isolated anomalies occur within the enclosures with a concentration characteristic of occupation debris in one part of the surveyed area.,Y 210,"The survey supports the impression that, should further areas come under threat, much valuable imformation could be obtained from detailed magnetometer coverage, despite the variable quantities and qualities of the soil coverage. Soil susceptibilities proved particularly high and good results would be expected where contrasts and depths allow. ",Y 218,"Magnetic susceptibilty was low and insubstantial features would be unlikely to be detected. In this case the magnetometer detected no recognisable archaeological activity. The resistivity traverses detected high resistance anomalies that might be consistent with walls and possibly a road, although the small sample was insufficient to locate any patterns.",Y 212,"Conditions were favourable for magnetic surveying and a large number of magnetic anomalies were detected. The distribution of features corresponded well to those known from aerial photographs, and additional areas of interest were also located. The detailed survey was able to detect a double ditched circular enclosure.",Y 220,The survey has convincingly indicated the large extent and varying intensities of archaeological activity at the site. Magnetic anomalies are widespread although rather weak for an area of high magnetic susceptibility suggesting that occupational activity was not substantial. In the area downslope from the temple the two techniques complement each other.,Y 194,"The survey located part of the inner ditch of what appears to be a circular enclosure, but no evidence of an outer ditch. Internal occupation features do seem to have been detected as clearly defined anomalies against a quiet background.",Y 195,"The survey located two concentric ditches at the north end of the site, and also two similarly spaced ditches at the south end. Responses appeared more exaggerated in the southern half of the survey where the topsoil had been stripped, and it was noted that the subsurface gave a stonger magnetic susceptibility reading than the topsoil.",Y 196,"Despite suitable conditions for detection, the circular enclosure was not detected. However other features were detected including two parallel double ditches across the site, and strong individual anomalies were located at the west end of the field.",Y 197,"Apart from a single ditch about 1m wide the survey was unable to locate any significant group of magnetic anomalies, despite favourable magnetic contrast between the topsoil and subsoil.",Y 198,"The survey detected anomalies which could clearly form part of an enclosure boundary about 35m in diameter. There was greater magnetic disturbance inside the enclosure than outside and could indicate occupation. A ditch located on the survey plot was traced for a further 75m beyond by scanning with the magnetometer, suggesting a more extensive field system.",Y 199,"The survey results corresponded well with the cropmarks visible on the APs and linear and enclosure features were detected. The topsoil magnetic susceptibility was high, but no concentrations of anomalies that might suggest occupation were discovered.",Y 200,"The survey detected strong magnetic disturbances with a number of features of probable archaeological significance, including the bank and ditches bounding the enclosure. Topsoil magnetic susceptibility was high and internal anomalies were detected, although not in any recognisable plan that might identify the site as a settlement.",Y 201,The survey was unable to detect any clear or continuous anomaly that might represent an enclosure ditch. The area was magnetically disturbed but it was not possible to distinguish between possible archaeology and natural background activity.,Y 202,"The geophysical survey and the plot from the APs have combined very satisfactorily in defining this group of features. The definition of the barrow ditches was slight but the survey has located the long barrow and two ditch circles, probably representing round barrows. ",Y 192,The survey detected only two anomalies that might represent kilns and some sporadic anomalies that might be archaeological. Otherwise the area proved to be almost devoid of detectable archaeological activity. Further scanning to the west was unproductive.,Y 191,"The survey enlarges considerably the available information on the pattern of the site, and the enclosure has been shown to be more extensive than originally thought. Occupation evidence was widespread with pit like features being consistently revealed as distinct anomalies. ",Y 205,A magnetic response was observed from the hearth but no other similar features could be identified with confidence in the prevailing conditions of the site.,Y 179,Magnetometer scan was unsuccessful due to nearby modern buildings and iron clutter. Consequently the survey was completed as an auger survey using a 1.1m coring auger.,Y 186,"The survey detected magnetic anomalies of definite archaeological character, probably pits and ditches. Two extremely intense anomalies were thought to be geological in origin.",Y 187,"The results of the survey suggests the presence of four buildings in the area surveyed. Enclosures were detected around the buildings in part together with indications of a field system, but variations in the fill of the ditches prevented them from being planned in full. ",Y 190,The survey was able to confirm that buried features exist on either side of the Roman road additional to those already revealed by excavation. Activity was noisier and difficult to resolve to the east of the road suggesting building or occupation debris. Random magnetometer scanning found little other detectable archaeological activity outside the plotted survey area. ,Y 181,The survey detected several magnetic anomalies of possible archaeological significance. Magnetic topsoil susceptibility was low and the extant field boundaries were not detected. However the anomalies that were detected are more likely to represent enhanced features.,Y 180,"Conditions here, as on many urban sites, were not very suitable for magnetic detection. Those areas where the survey charts could be interpreted or where scanning took place showed no clear evidence of past occupation.",Y 184,"The survey located a scatter of archaeological features, however there was no evidence to relate them directly to each other or to the nearby villa. With the exception of one or two pits most of the features were weakly magnetic despite a high magnetic susceptibility contrast between topsoil and subsoil.",Y 178,"The survey detected a complex system of ditches and other anomalies, but no clear pattern.",Y 175,"The Plessey Radionavigation system used here in 1974 proved to be effective in detecting and plotting a barrow ditch around the mound, and fence lines. At a further visit in March 1977, the barrow ditch was relocated by scanning, and a commercial plotting system tested at ten stations along its line. A best-fit plot of the data was very comparable to the one produced by the Radionavigation system in1974 (Survey Visit No. 467).",Y 185,"The survey detected a number of magnetic anomalies of possible archaeological significance and the presence of the ditch system known from APs was confirmed. The response to the site was much disturbed, possibly due to spoil from the nearby airfield and igneous erratics from nearby geology.",Y 231,Magnetic anomalies were weak and only just detectable. The magnetic susceptibility contrast between topsoil and subsoil was high suggesting that either occupation was not particularly intense or features only remain as remnants.,Y 177,"The magnetic survey might indicate an almost continuous archaeological disturbance of the ground but detailed interpretation is hindered by the complexity of the plot. No distinct plan of building foundations appeared in the resistivity plots, but anomalies consistent with buried masonry were detected in the NW corner of the survey.",Y 203,"The survey took place in two distinct areas: Site A, and Site C. Ditches revealed in excavation could not be located at site A, a boulder clay hill. However the ditch at site C on sandy gravel was detected.",Y 174,"The survey showed that the site is wildly disturbed by reactions to modern iron, and this has masked the quiet chalk background. In the smaller and quieter area surveyed at half metre intervals some slight anomalies were detected. Magnetic susceptibility tests show that the sand fill in the excavated holes is as non magnetic as the chalk, but the there was some contrast with the overlying topsoil.",Y 167,The magnetometer survey traces showed slight signs of archaeological disturbance but not in any form that could be related to the aerial photography plan. ,Y 166,"Magnetic susceptibility tests showed that the site would be responsive to magnetic survey, despite some confusion by igneous stones. However little sign of archaeological activity was detected, and none that bear any relationship to the cropmark.",Y 163,The survey located several alignments which could represent walls of the building. There appeared to be no archaeological activity immediately to the north and west of the feature.,Y 156,"The survey was unable to locate the cist that had already been discovered. However the nature, orientation and size of some anomalies suggest the occurence of other stone-lined cists within a cemetery.",Y 171,The survey clearly located the position of the villa and the general pattern of magnetic response relates well to the character of the site as known from excavation.,Y 162,"The survey detected the southern and western arc of the enclosure boundary as a ditch between 1.5m and 2m wide. Within the surveyed part of the enclosure there was an extensive, irregular concentration of anomalies, probably representing pits.",Y 168,"The survey has demonstrated the presence of intense archaeological activity consisting of a ditched trackway, a ditched enclosure, and numerous diverse anomalies of pit-like characteristics. ",Y 158,The survey suggests that this is an area of relatively light development that appears to terminate about 90m from the gravel pit fence.,Y 170,This survey confirmed the main findings of a previous magnetometer scan of the area (Survey Visit No. 496). Magnetic response was weak but anomalies were found which appear to correspond to known archaeological activity. The resistivity survey clearly detected the temple monument some 10m SW of its presumed location. ,Y 234,"Throughout the larger part of the area covered by the survey there appeared to be little magnetic evidence for archaeological activity. The background susceptibility from the gravel was low, and known features were often not detected. However those anomalies that were located coincided well with higher local susceptibility values.",Y 157,"Soil tests showed the site would be suitable for magnetometer survey,yet despite this no features corresponding to those seen on APs were detected. A 1m wide linear feature was located and many shorter linear anomalies.",Y 160,"The survey detected three partial ditch alignments and a number of anomalies scattered over the whole area, mostly weak. Those most likely to represent archaeological features fell into two separate clusters, one of which appears to be small pits. The other group was in the area of known surface finds and contained small separate anomalies, which could represent graves or more pits.",Y 138,"There was very little magnetic response from the area intended for excavation, and consequently no detailed survey was attempted. However three significant anomalies were located in other parts of the survey which may relate to the Iron Age settlement.",Y 217,Scanning revealed a site with the appearence of a small henge with strong anomalies at the centre and may be part of a cemetery . Some quarrying had taken place on the NE side of the feature.,Y 164,The magnetically disturbed character of the site provided clear evidence that substantial and complex remains of a settlement are to be found alongside Ermine Street. As well as anomalies characteristic of occupation there may also have been industrial remains. No evidence was found for a possible fort or cemetery.,Y 149,Ditches were located by the survey but were not found to extend beyond the expected area. Other anomalies were generally weakly defined.,Y 150,The survey clearly detected the greater part of the enclosure and many of its internal features. Anomalies to the south were not as well defined.,Y 188,"The soil response to the magnetometer survey was particularly good and clearly revealed the main features of the site. A detailed 0.5m survey was undertaken over selected parts of the site, but detected few extra occupation features, despite considerably emphasizing those already detected on the 1m survey.",Y 182,"Resistance was high over most of the mound with the exceptions of the summit area and an area corresponding to a shallow depression on the SW slope. It was known that the tumulus was opened at the top and a layer of stones removed, and this could account for the lower resistance found there. ",Y 183,"Although no convincing archaeological features were located by the 1m survey, the more detailed 0.5m survey detected anomalies that could represent pits or hearths such as those already excavated in the vicinity.",Y 152,"No clearly defined outline of a structure was detected, but there was no clear response from the known line of the Wall itself, suggesting that either few stones remained or any archaeology is too deeply buried.",Y 141,"In difficult soil conditions, due to strongly magnetic igneous rocks in the underlying boulder clay, some archaeological features may have gone undetected. However there was no magnetic evidence for substantial buried remains with the exception of a few lengths of ditch and isolated pits. The resistivity traverses were unable to detect a continuous anomaly that might represent the military road. ",Y 172,"Evidence for archaeological disturbance appeared to be widespread throughout the surveyed area and showed close correspondance to some of the features already known from excavation including kilns and furnaces. The natural magnetic 'noise' masked the response from the ditches, making them difficult to distinguish. Another field (1388) to the East of the excavations was scanned for further archaeological features and a number of moderate strength localised anomalies were located.",Y 176,"Resistivity survey detected sufficient systematic variation in the readings, despite a very narrow range, to distinguish the ditches and bank of a long barrow. Magnetic response was equally slight but anomalies corresponded, although not identically, with the resistivity anomalies.",Y 224,"Little of an archaeological nature was detected by the survey, although anomalies in field OS 1400 may represent industrial activity. It seems unlikely that the proposed drainage work would damage the archaeology to more than the slightest extent.",Y 146,Over most of the site the survey detected very few anomalies likely to be of archaeological origin. However pit-like features would appear to have been located near to the excavation.,Y 148,An initial magnetometer scan helped to locate the most promising areas for detailed surveying. However this detected only a random scatter of anomalies none of which could be said to be archaeologically significant or indicative of the whereabouts of the cemetery,Y 245,Magnetometer survey detected archaeologically significant anomalies only in the south-eastern part of the field. These suggested buried pits and some larger amorphous features.,Y 144,"The survey appears to have located evidence of ditches on the NE side of the dyke, but their apparent absence on the other side. However the magnetic response was generally weak and features only marginally detectable.",Y 154,"Despite obstructions and debris, enough of the interior was surveyed to reveal a general distribution of anomalies of a size and strength expected of pits at an occupied site.",Y 368,"The initial scan pinpointed some quite distinct activity near the centre of the enclosure. More detailed magnetic survey was unable to clearly resolve the nature of the disturbance, however the resistivity survey located anomalies that might indicate structural debris or paving.",Y 272,"The geophysical surveys were unable to detect any clear evidence for a bank associated with the inner ditch. Resistivity survey detected the ditch but no other significant anomalies. Magnetic susceptibility tests suggested that occupation features may lie within the ramparts in one of the areas. The magnetic scanning detected a few isolated anomalies within the interior, possibly reflecting pits. ",Y 139,The scan located various areas of higher readings plus a general scatter of isolated anomalies particularly to the south and east of the area,Y 140,"Magnetic anomalies detected by the survey were characteristic of those caused by pits and other occupation features. These were strongest near to the excavated part of the site, suggesting that the known settlement area extends to the west, but it was impossible to say just how far from the sample areas surveyed.",Y 137,Two of the three traverses surveyed showed peaks of high resistance consistent with the sides of a buried ditch.,Y 135,Evidence from the surveys suggests the likely presence of domestic or industrial remains over much of the site. There were ditches and at least one road probably with walls to each side.,Y 134,"Despite no significant susceptibility contrast between topsoil and subsoil the magnetometer survey detected what, on augering, appeared to be a large pit with topsoil and burnt material. No clear ditch pattern was discernable in the resistivity traverses.",Y 132,"The survey was able to delimit the area of greatest archaeological activity, locating a ditch pattern which appears to be rectangular and encloses pits and other features.",Y 244,"The resistivity traverses imply the existence of lateral ditches. The magnetometer survey appears to have detected them as weak anomalies, possibly broad and shallow.",Y 159,Magnetic response was very quiet. A few slight anomalies were detected.,Y 136,"The four main comparative traverses across the site were also subject to a contour survey and systematic auger survey. The magnetometer survey responded to the accumulated magnetic midden material, but the uniformity tended to mask any subtle or deeper magnetic contrasts. The resistivity survey was largely unsatisfactory due to the depth of the deposit involved. The only hard clues as to the whereabouts of buildings under the midden were from the auger borings.",Y 126,"Anomalies detected by the magnetometer survey were all weak and none suggested the presence of square barrows of the type being excavated near by. A scan over these exposed features showed their ditches to be undetectable and only rhe largest graves gave any response. Magnetic susceptibility readings from features were not much higher than the subsoil and less than the topsoil.",Y 124,"Although strong magnetic anomalies, suggesting considerable archaeological disturbances were detected at two places along the town wall line, the definition was not clear enough to say whether a gateway had been present.",Y 127,"The metal detector scan found various small ferrous objects (mainly nails). The resistivity survey corroborated surface evidence of building material and appears to have detected foundations of two heavily robbed buildings.",Y 128,"The site was magnetically responsive and the survey detected a regular pattern of what seem to be ditches. The resistivity traverses found no evidence for surviving masonry, however an auger survey carried out at the same time showed that considerable amounts of apparent occupation material were present as deep as 1m below the surface.",Y 131,The response to the resistivity survey at the west end of the field was consistent with the presence of structural remains or foundations.,Y 81,The magnetic scan had detected a strongly magnetic anomaly concentric with the revetment. Unfortunately the recorded survey was limited in scope due to an equipment failure and neither the magnetometer or resistivity survey was able to identify any ditches or other evidence for buried stones in the area that was surveyed.,Y 129,"The survey response gave every indication of the remains of a settlement, including at least one road, and corresponds to some of the features visible on APs.",Y 130,No distinctive anomalies were identified from the resistivity traverses.,Y 125,"Although the traverses failed to give clear definition of a stone revetment in the long banks, they did show that the banks were almost certainly built of sand from the surrounding area. An edge to the possible gatehouse complex was detected by one of the area surveys, but any definition of wall foundations was masked by near surface rubble.",Y 119,"The survey indicated that an enclosure some 50m square was present in the central area, and the area to the north of this contains anomalies consistent with occupation. A separate linear anomaly was also detected, corresponding to a slight surface feature.",Y 120,The local soil conditions seem to give rise to only a weak magnetic response from the magnetometer. A small number of weak anomalies were detected that might represent a group of pits. Scanning in a field to the west failed to find any clear responses that might have suggested the presence of outer ditches to the hillfort.,Y 121,Contours drawn through the traverse readings show an area of high readings of a size corresponding to what is known of the gravel pit. Readings at the west of the site may indicate a second pit.,Y 118,"Apart from several strong 'iron' anomalies only one feature suggesting occupation was found. An auger boring at this anomaly found particles of brick, and charcoal consistent with a rubbish pit.",Y 117,"The survey detected a previously unknown pattern of ditches, and a number of perhaps rather modest pits.",Y 122,"A track discovered in the excavation could not be followed beyond area B by the survey, although ditches were located in area A. The survey also detected responses to buried iron which could indicate grave goods.",Y 216,The enclosure ditch was clearly detected as well as a number of internal features.,Y 115,"Most of the strong anomalies detected were thought to be due to buried iron, with two exceptions which may have been caused by buried archaeological features. Otherwise the site was magnetically blank.",Y 114,"The survey provided evidence that the ditches existed where they were expected, however the erratic magnetic response of the site prevented their full extent from being traced with any certainty. The resistivity traverses failed to locate the ditches, possibly because of the waterlogged ground.",Y 113,"Magnetometer survey detected the remains of a substantial Roman settlement complete with evidence of intensive occupation, and possibly phasing. ",Y 112,It proved difficult to distinguish between resistance anomalies due to buried remains and those due to geological features. However with the aid of an auger it was possible to delimit the probable extent of the site and to determine some of the wall alignments.,Y 111,The difficulties of the site appear to have affected the results less than might have been expected. The readings indicate that the wall probably continues for the full length of the survey area. High readings at one end could have been caused by foundations of a tower or equally recent interference. ,Y 106,The interior of the circle showed no evidence of extensive disturbance but there were several significantly placed magnetic anomalies which could represent features of archaeological interest.,Y 107,The survey was affected by uncertain geological factors but it is unlikely that substantial occupation deposits extend inland. A number of small anomalies of possible archaeological significance were detected. ,Y 103,The ditch was located clearly by the magnetometer survey and a tentative reconstruction of the stone circle was possible from indications of possible stone holes.Other internal features were also detected.,Y 105,The pattern of ditches revealed on the aerial photograph was confirmed and elaborated by the magnetometer survey.,Y 104,"Results from the resistivity traverses suggested that there could be remains of buildings immediately to the north of the farmyard, but other wise there was an absence of evidence for structural remains in the surrounding fields.",Y 109,"The survey was able to detect some of the major archaeological features of the site, as confirmed by subsequent excavation.",Y 108,"The magnetometer survey suggested a pattern of activity typical of extramural settlement of a Roman town, involving a certain amount of minor scale industry, and a roadway.",Y 102,The survey detected the presence of dense occupational remains enclosed in the south by at least two ditches. This occupation appeared to terminate to the east but no enclosing ditches were found in that direction.,Y 101,"While the resistivity survey shows no unambiguous evidence of archaeological remains, the magnetometer survey located a number of anomalies characteristic of occupation continuing eastwards beyond the survey area.",Y 100,The disturbed nature of the site made interpretation hazardous but the observed resistivity anomalies could reasonably be explained by occupation features similar to those excavated. No clear indication of graves was detected.,Y 98,The survey was able to locate only one anomaly about 2m across.,Y 99,"The area of interest appears to be bounded by a curved feature, and within this area the survey detected a concentration of pit-like anomalies.",Y 96,The survey was successful in locating and defining the areas of activity within the hillfort. The blank areas were confirmed by large-scale scraping.,Y 95,The survey detected some evidence of archaeological disturbance. In addition to several small features the presence of a system of ditches was indicated.,Y 94,Magnetometer survey was not possible due to presence of building materials and rubbish. Resistivity traverses were able to detect the presence of high resistance anomalies possibly indicating wall foundations or rubble spread.,Y 91,The magnetometer survey was able to detect enclosure ditches and evidence for possible occupation at site 1. Site 2 however gave little magnetic response.,Y 90,"A single substantial high resistance anomaly was detected some 30ft wide, possibly an oblique crossing of the Wall rather than part of a fort.",Y 92,The magnetic surveys were able to delimit the area of industrial activity at site 1 and have probably located the Roman road. There was no evidence in the other areas surveyed for major archaeological remains.,Y 89,The survey detected the ditches of an enclosure visible in APs and other enclosure as well. Two kilns were detected and numerous magnetic disturbances within all the enclosed areas.,Y 88,The survey did not find any detectable magnetic disturbance suggestive of occupation. However a number of small ditches were located.,Y 85,"Although a large number of anomalies were detected by the magnetic scanning, these were weak and could as easily be natural.",Y 87,Resistivity traverses showed that the quarry consisted of two pits joined by a narrow neck.,Y 84,Magnetic anomalies of archaeological type were found along the whole of the strip examined. They probably represent random industrial development around the old road junction.,Y 83,"Neither the resistivity or magnetometer surveys were successful in locating any post holes at the site. The barrow ditches, however were clearly detected as low resistance anomalies.",Y 86,The survey produced only slight anomalies at site 1. At site 2 substantial anomalies were detected but were large and amorphous. Auger borings showed clean sand near the surface and it was thought that the anomalies were caused by deposits of magnetic sand.,Y 82,"The survey detected an L-shaped anomaly containing two separate regions of intensity, and a stronger anomaly some 10ft to the north.",Y 206,The response from the site to the magnetometer survey was weak with no strong or distinct magnetic anomalies.,Y 165,"Scanning at Ellingham near to the farm buildings proved impossible due to the presence of quantities of metal articles. Further scanning in the field to the west revealed some scattered weak anomalies. At Thetford, well defined low resistance anomalies at the northernmost ends of both groups of traverses suggest a possible ditch up to 7 metres wide. The magnetometry traverse was unable to conclusively support this inference.",Y 189,"The survey undertaken in 1973 over the outlying earthworks demonstrated that ditches were detectable as magnetic 'depletion' features in the underlying raised beach. It also demonstrated the frequency and confusing character of the quantities of magnetic stone in the soil. The resistivity traverses were succesful in locating the ditches. In the 1977 survey, a considerable ammount of information was gained from the magnetic survey, although this was restricted to the more substantial features that stand out from a disturbed and irregular magnetic background. The best defined of these features were a series of ditches which appear to represent sub-circular enclosures within the settlement.",Y 173,"This report concerns three separate visits to the area: In April 1976 two sites were surveyed. Those anomalies that were detected were tested with auger but no clearly discernible cause was found. In August 1976 several regions of typically relevant magnetic disturbance were located, although augerings revealed nothing distinctly archaeological. Magnetic susceptibility contrast between topsoil and subsoil was considered sufficient for detection of archaeological features. In August 1977, despite locating patterns that may suggest archaeological features, the survey produced no clearly corroborated evidence of archaeological remains.",Y 169,"This report describes four surveys undertaken in the area of Bullock Down during 1976. A number of geophysical techniques were tried at a Romano-British site during March, however none of them detected any substantial anomalies that might relate to a settlement site. The resistivity survey at the Medieval farmstead in August with dry conditions proved to be extremely useful in delineating walls and associated anomalous structures. The resistivity surveys at the Bronze-Age barrow cemetery, also in August, clearly indicated the positions of the three barrows and their corresponding ditches. An assumed fourth barrow was not located. A fluxgate magnetometer scan over a possible Neolithic site failed to find any anomalies of archaeological significance in the area.",Y 155,"This report describes five surveys carried out as part of an assessment in advance of a BGC pipeline in Hampshire: At site 28 a scan across the Roman Road showed no signs of magnetic disturbance. At site 40 the survey detected tentative ditch alignments and very weak isolated anomalies, but no evidence of intensive occupation. At site 38 the survey detected an area of archaeological activity represented by occupation features, extending to either side of the survey strip. At the Leckford site the survey located the kink in the ditch, but there appears to be no associated features. At the Barton Stacey site the survey detected intensive archaeological activity, which appeared to extend well beyond the survey strip.",Y 151,"This report describes three separate surveys at Sarratt: At Newhall Farm In November 1976 the resistivity survey detected some alignments of high resistance, one group of which appears to form a rectangle of building-like proportions. Scanning with the magnetometer revealed no well-defined features. At Valley Farm: Site B the resistivity survey produced no clear evidence of wall foundations although an area of high resistance readings could indicate structural debris. Magnetometer scanning revealed nothing of archaeological significance. At Valley Farm: Site A in January 1977, the magnetometer survey revealed some well-defined features, but none that could give firm evidence for the nature of the site. The resistivity survey was unable to detect any wall foundations, but evidence could have been obscured by the high resistance background of the gravels.",N 153,"The responses to an initial survey of sample traverses, suggested one possible structural feature in the area surveyed. This was followed up with a detailed area survey two months later which pointed very strongly to a location for the milecastle at the S end of the field. A clearly defined anomaly was located at this point with a weaker linear anomaly characteristic of a walled enclosure.",Y 147,"The survey at Cringleford appears to have located at least one, and possibly three kilns and several other strong anomalies probably indicating burnt or baked material. There was nothing of archaeological significance to the east of the survey area, and scanning in the adjacent field failed to find any evidence of a continuation of the site. The survey at Bowthorpe detected general broad anomalies, but no evidence of a distinctive pattern could be traced. The area available for survey was limited by the proximity of several gypsy caravans.",Y 143,"The response to the survey at Mappowder was obscured over much of the area due to the presence of an underground pipe. However a few anomalous areas were detected and individual responses likely to represent pits, as well as the line of an extant bank in the SW corner. The area to the west was scanned but appears to have been magnetically undisturbed. The survey at Darknoll Farm detected only a scatter of small anomalies, with one area of possibly archaeological disturbance.",Y 123,"Magnetometer scan at five sites along the line of proposed M3 motorway to check for potential archaeology: At London Lodge magnetic scanning appears to have located a group of minor ditches and small pits. At Micheldever Wood magnetometer scan detected a substantially ditched rounded enclosure and also confirmed a nearby mound to be a barrow. At Winnal magnetometer scan located a ring ditch lying beneath a substantial lynchet with associated linear. Slightly to the north the scan failed to detect what appears to be an enclosure visible on AP's. At Easton Down magnetometer scan detected pit-like and weak linear anomalies at one site, and a ring ditch at the other. At Compton magnetometer scan detected a pair of linear ditches at one site and a possible ditch at the other.",Y 116,"An initial survey at Ickham detected no significant anomalies other than some 19th century rubbish pits. A second visit also proved to be magnetically unresponsive, but did detect a few weak anomalies. The Roman road was not detected although it was known to run through the site. Only two small anomalies were detected at Bridge",Y 97,"A magnetometer scan conducted in October 1972 was unable to detect any appreciable magnetic activity that would have justified a detailed magnetometer survey. Resistivity traverses also failed to find evidence of substantial occupation with the exception of a possible isolated structure corresponding with a magnetic anomaly. Further detailed resistivity survey, carried out in the following May, was only able to confirm a disturbed area possibly containing masonry or rubble. The known masonry structure, probably at a depth of more than 2m below the surface, was not detectable despite using a 2m probe separation.",Y 93,"Two surveys were conducted at Combretovium. The first survey in February discovered a road ditch and some suggestion of extra-mural activity along the roadside. The second survey, a month later found no noticable evidence for the existence of any extensive former occupation at site1, but signs of some activity at site 2.",Y 208,"This report describes geophysical surveys on four sites within the Isles of Scilly: At East Porth, Samson only a few minor anomalies were found, two of which on testing by hand auger located traces of buried soil over 0.6m below the surface. No significant archaeological features were detected. At Nornour in the Eastern Islands the only magnetic response was a medium anomaly on the beach below the excavated huts. More likely to represent a spread of burnt material than a single feature. Auger survey showed buried soil up to about a metre below the sand. At Little Bay, St Martins, due to sand dunes immediately behind the excavated remains of circular stone buildings, it was only possible to attempt a magnetometer scan on the beach. Only one anomaly of any significance was detected. An auger survey was carried out inland and samples taken for classification and phosphate analysis. At Par Beach, St Martins, although nothing of significance was found in scanning around the site of the previous excavation, a recorded survey on the beach detected a number of anomalies, some strong enough to be hearths or even evidence of industrial activity.",Y 215,"This report describes geophysical surveys at three sites in the Andover area: At Charlton Link Road only one anomaly of possible archaeological significance was detected as well as a noisy area around the site of the demolished manor house. At Vigo Road the high level of iron rubbish at the site of the recorded grid effectively masked any archaeological features. The resistivity survey detected little on a badly disturbed surface and the magnetometer scan nearby detected nothing at all. At Foxcotte the survey detected mainly small anomalies consistent with buried pits and gullies, and one larger anomaly that was difficult to interpret. Extensive scanning was unproductive with the exception of a concentration of anomalies between the earthworks and the road.",Y 237,"The shallow soil and geological complexity of the Marisco Castle site have given confused survey results which are mostly negative in their significance. No enclosing ditch was found outside the bailey, and no clear plans of building foundations were detected in the areas surveyed by resistivity. At Bull's Paradise the magnetic survey showed the field to be very disturbed, but there was only partial response to some of the known ditches. Magnetic activity concentrated around the probable site of the chapel, although no signs of buried masonry were detected by the resistivity survey.",Y 242,"The following sites were surveyed by magnetometer to assist the interpretation of small defended enclosures as part of Dyfed Archaeological Trust's Small Enclosure Project. At Drim external ditches were clearly located by the survey. Numerous internal features were detected also. At Dan-Y-Coed topsoil magnetic susceptibility was very high at the site and the enclosure ditch was detected as a massive anomaly. Discrete anomalies in the interior were difficult to locate although broad positive anomalies could be interpreted as thoroughfares At Broadway activity within the enclosure was fairly sparse except along the eastern perimeter. Part of the internal ditch appears to have been located. At Pilcornswell soil susceptibility was very high at the site and specific patterns were difficult to distinguish from the noise. However archaeological activity is likely to be responsible for much of the response in the main enclosure. The survey was able to confirm that the enclosure was double ditched. At Bodringallt the inner ditch of the enclosure was clearly located as well as a 'banjo' type entrance way. The central area was noticable for its relative magnetic inactivity, yet numerous features appear to lie near to the interior perimeter. The magnetic susceptibility of the topsoil was high. At Woodside the survey detected numerous indistinct internal features and anomalies coincident with the enclosure bank that may represent variations in structure. Earth accumulation along the sides of the bank was also visible in the plots as a broad weakly positive band. Topsoil susceptibility was high.",Y 249,"Initial surveys in 1979 were promising enough to make a decision to expand the survey the following year. In 1980 the magnetometer survey located the Avenue ditches and a number of weaker anomalies. Resistivity detected the banks but only two distinct pit like anomalies. The survey was not able to positively identify further likely stone pairs without additional evidence such as limited excavation.",Y 266," Eight sites along the Hadrian's Wall defences were surveyed as part of a CEU fieldwork programme. A description of the results at each site follows: 1. Milecastle 58: The results suggest that masonry is still in situ on the marked wall line, however there is no clear evidence for a milecastle within the area surveyed. One area of high readings corresponds to an outcrop of glacial sand. 2. Military Way: High resistance peaks in four traverses clearly correspond to the road. Traverses in the next field lie over an outcrop of sand and gravel and readings are more erratic, however a clear line of peaks may represent the road. 3.Milecastle 62: The traverses show high resistance readings over the line of the ditch (probably caused by the waterlogged conditions surrounding), a smaller increase over the supposed wall line and a strong linear anomaly to the south, but no clear response over the vallum. The area survey confirmed the above anomalies, but could not confirm the position of the milecastle. 4. Milecastle 63: The line of the wall and ditch was clearly reflected in the readings. Strong anomalies to the west of the survey suggest the presence of buried stonework, and could indicate the location of the milecastle. 5. Milecastle 59: The detailed survey located the milecastle to the east of the position marked on the OS map. The traverses show coincident anomalies of high resistance behind the line of the wall. 6. Milecastle 61: An area of high resistance was located close to the fence. Although it was not possible to form a clear picture of the milecastle, this seems the most likely position for it. 7. Turret 59A: The survey showed a lot of disturbance, suggestive of rubble scatters, but no clearly defined features. Thus it was not possible to identify the turret or even to isolate the ditch and wall. 8. CEU site 192: A wide ditch, parallel to the Wall and excavated by the CEU team, showed up as a high resistance anomaly as did the ploughed out bank adjacent to it. The traverse to the south showed a fairly uniform response save for a high resistance anomaly near the vallum, which turned out to be a well drained ditch on excavation. The high readings for ditches here, appears to be due to the waterlogging of the surrounding ground.",Y 324,"This report describes three surveys conducted by the Amlab at Old Windsor and re-plotted data from a 1956 survey done by the M.O.W. The 1956 survey appears to have detected some linear anomalies which run parallel to the traverses, but these could be effects of the processing. The 1975 resistivity survey detected a minor negative feature to the east of the site, and the extended traverse appears to have located the 'Great Mill Ditch'. A magnetometer scan at the same time found two areas of magnetic disturbance to the south of the ditch and some erratic anomalies over the supposed location of the roman building. Some of the anomalies were augered for phosphate content. A magnetometer survey conducted in1982 at Test Area A located only the line of a former field boundary, but not the edges of the saxon ditch. The resistivity traverses did identify a band of low readings on the correct alignment and the presence of a backfilled pond. The 1982 resistivity survey at Test Area B located the saxon ditch for part of its length but it is not clear what happens to it in the north of the survey.",Y 328,The three geophysical surveys by the AML at this site between 1979 and 1982 have shown that limited magnetic evidence in conjunction with resistivity can provide some indication of the major features of the site. The magnetometer surveys alone did not locate any strong anomalies of obvious significance.,Y 332,"Features associated with the settlement appear to extend through much of the area surveyed in March 1983. Anomalies are consistent with archaeological activity such as wall footings, occupation areas, and possibly even industrial activity. A further magnetometer survey in June of the same year shows intensive disturbance with a greater concentration of sub-surface features than located in the previous survey to the west.",Y 352,"A profusion of anomalies have been detected by the magnetometer survey in Area C suggesting a concentration of buried remains. Survey coverage is too narrow to fully define the extent and the pattern. Anomalies detected in the sample within Area E surveyed by magnetometer, could possibly represent substantial ditches, and other small features.",Y 75,"A group of four magnetic anomalies around the middle of the circle may represent pits related to the local surface undulations and the presence of localised burning. Other magnetic anomalies may be of artificial origin but there may be some confusion with both natural features and superficial iron debris. The resistivity survey may contain evidence for buried stone or rubble, but this could equally represent bedrock close to the surface. Further interpretation can be found in a later report (AML 145/87).",Y 454,"Resistivity and magnetometer survey was undertaken at Fotheringhay Castle in August and October 1991. Overall three areas were surveyed within the castle remains comprising the inner bailey, motte, and outer bailey. The resistivity survey has identified several probable wall footings and spreads of rubble which may indicate where buildings lie buried.",Y 455,"This report describes the results of the magnetometer survey at Mallows Cotton and gives a brief description of traverses surveyed at West Cotton by local students using a variety of techniques. The magnetometer survey confirmed the continuation of Iron Age and Roman features detected by earlier surveys as part of the Raunds Area Project. A series of rectangular enclosures were identified, and magnetic responses were obtained from the surviving earthworks. The known palaeochannels and a mill leat at West Cotton were succesfully traced by resistivity, conductivity, and VLF",Y 456,"In general, the agreement between the AP and magnetic evidence is close. However the geophysical survey at Hoffer bridge has extended the number of features known from cropmarks, and has given some possible evidence for their state of preservation. The geophysical interpretation will allow an assessment of the accuracy with which the AP evidence was plotted.",N 457,"The geophysical survey has identified a series of anomalies, some most likely to be of archaeological origin, others which are natural or recent in origin, and some whose cause is uncertain. There are also areas where the techniques have not worked due to modern disturbance. In such circumstances we would recommend further archaeological investigation of a sample of each category.",N 458,"The resistivity survey, despite its limited extent and the tantalising results produced, did indicate that there may well be features surrounding the Abbey which were previously unknown and which need to be investigated further. It is clear, however, that changes in the use of the area over a period of centuries will inevitably introduce their own complications into any future investigation of the area.",Y 459,"As this document is intended as an interim report to give an overview of work completed to date it does not at this stage seek to interpret or discuss the results in detail. However, it is clear that geophysical survey has revealed a wealth of new information, complementing the air photographic evidence both within the scheduled area and elsewhere in the field. The survey has also enabled the villa with its walled enclosure and some additional features to be accurately surveyed to the National Grid by EDM Total Station for the first time.",N 460,"A resistivity survey was carried out in an attempt to define the extent of the former priory church. The results show a series of linear positive anomalies which may indicate traces of wall alignments within an amorphous spread of rubble. The rubble spreads could mask wall foundations, but it is impossible to reconstruct the plan of the former priory church. A more clearly defined anomaly running north-south towards the churchyard wall, however, may represent the eastern boundary of the cloister garth.",Y 468,"No clear plan of the house or courtyard was produced from the resistivity results, but there are several positive anomalies which may possibly correspond to a building. However, this cannot be established by the survey evidence alone.",Y 471,"The resistivity survey results from around the castle perimeter offer little clarification of what is already known. No complete circuit of the earlier curtain wall could be traced, although there are anomalies at the south east of the site which might be associated with previous defensive works. The failure to confirm the presence of the moats near to the excavated sections means that no useful conclusions concerning the moats can be drawn from the results elsewhere. Both the magnetic and resistivity results from the field north of the castle show a greater degree of disturbance than can easily be accounted for naturally, but few features of clearly archaeological character are recognisable.",Y 469,"Archaeological features are not easily distinguishable on a site of this nature, but some of the survey findings might merit further investigation. These include the substantial resistivity anomaly which lies close to both the wall and the proposed sewer pipe, and anomalies which might be associated with the milecastle. There is considerable extraneous disturbance in the eastern part of the site, and it is unclear from the survey evidence alone as to what extent this might affect the remainder of the site.",Y 270,"Magnetometer survey at the Tofts site was effective over those sites examined and confirms the liklihood that the fortifications are more complex than first supposed. At the Forcett site magnetic susceptibility was lower here than at the nearby ""Tofts"" site. This may be due to the different sub-soils, but it is also likely that occupation was slight or absent. Linear features on the same alignments as the earthworks were detected.",Y 279,"This report includes descriptions of magetometer surveys at two sites: At South Wonston the survey located a number of ditches, some of which appear to form enclosures. Track known from cropmarks was also clearly detected with possible side ditch. At Sutton Scotney the survey detected substantial ditch feature and several weak anomalies suggesting the site may be more complex than originally thought.",Y 284,"Ths report describes surveys at two sites being evaluated in advance of the building of the Eynsham By-pass. At the Newlands Farm site magnetic anomalies were found but it was not possible to say if any of them were of archaeological significance. At the small part of the by-pass route known as Plot 2 only one anomaly was detected which on subsequent augering revealed charcoal.",Y 285,"This report describes two surveys at the Carvossa Probus site; one in 1971, and the other in 1980. Results from the first survey were processed in 1980 by the Ancient Monuments Lab. The survey responded to the earthwork bank and detected other anomalies which may represent archaeological features. The 4 ft probe spacing and the saturation of the ground at the time of survey were probably factors in the lack of clearly defined features. The 1980 survey found that the magnetic susceptibility of topsoil was quite high and a strong magnetic response was obtained showing a pattern of enclosures and anomalies suggestive of extensive occupation.",Y 305,"This report describes five separate surveys conducted between 1970 and 1982 as part of the Wharram Research Project. 1970. Two ditches were located, by magnetometer survey, at the western edge of the site and confirmed by excavation. 1971. Two distinct areas were surveyed by magnetometer, the northern area locating linear anomalies consistent with croft boundaries. Anomalies in the southern area were less clear due a fence across the area. 1975. Resistivity traverses clearly detected the western bank in areas where the bank is still well preserved. Depressed readings at one point suggest a linear feature such as a ditch. 1976. The main earthwork alignments were detected by magnetometer survey, often as a combination of both bank and ditch, and a Roman enclosure was located in the extreme north-west of the survey. 1982. Although magnetic activity was located, only one anomaly could be resolved enough to suggest a distinct feature such as a hearth or pit.",Y 311,"The infilled features of this site have produced distinctive anomalies contrasting clearly with the weak magnetic response from the undisturbed chalk background. The two surveys have revealed a large enclosure lying adjacent to a buried roadway, and clearly defines subdivisions into smaller enclosures. Evidence for building is more restricted and can only be surmised by localised and unsystematic disturbance.",Y 316,"This report describes magnetometer surveys at two M.O.D. sites in the Isle of Purbeck area. At Hobarrow Bay a clear distinction in topsoil magnetic susceptibility was observed over the mound. The magnetometer survey has shown that likely archaeological features, some strong enough to indicate possible industrial activity, are largely restricted to this area. At Worbarrow Bay magnetometer traces showed a consistent and liberal spread of iron anomalies from shrapnel, and consequently it was impossible to define any anomalies of archaeological origin.",Y 461,"The Privy Garden was surveyed by geophysical techniques in a limited way due to the presence of shubbery and its overgrown nature. The areas of investigation, however, did provide an indication of a curved design of cut-work consistent with the early eighteenth-century pattern. Within the flanking terraces the former presence of central steps appears confirmed but because of the disturbed nature of the made-up ground it is not possible to identify with certainty the location of the former yews. The attempt to identify earlier tree-pits within the circular plot of ground at the south end of the garden inside the Tijou Screen was similarly unsuccessful.",N 462,"Geophysical survey revealed an inner ditch running approximately 25m inside the hillfort bank. There is no evidence for date, except for a rational assumption that it is a pre-hillfort feature. There are possible buildings in the western area of the survey. Throughout the hillfort there are strong indications of scoops and pits. There are possible ditches and roads inside the hillfort. There are a number of anomalies on the magnetic survey which might be archaeological, possibly pits or areas of burning.",N 463,"The survey was commissioned in order to locate a bowling alley built during the sixteenth century. Surviving plans indicate that its location is within garden areas to the west of the Tudor tennis court, running approximately parallel with, and close to, the western edge of the gardens. A resistivity survey was carried out over two areas which provided some evidence for the presence of the bowling alley. An anomaly oriented approximately north-south in the southern garden may represent some surviving part of the alley. This anomaly does not extend into the surveyed area of the northern garden. If the alley still survives in this area, it is possible that it is below the present path.",Y 465,"The site is situated within Milford Farm, Laverstock, to the east of Salisbury. Three areas were surveyed by both the magnetic and the resistance method. The results for all three areas were generally magnetically noisy due to the complicating factors discussed in the main report. Only one anomaly which might be associated with a kiln was located. There are hints of other anomalies which may be archaeologically significant. In general, however, both the magnetic and resistance survey results were disappointing, given the nature of the archaeology.",N 466,"The geomagnetic survey has provided a striking picture of the internal layout of the fort from which the positions and orientations of many of the key buildings can be recognised. These include the barracks arranged per strigas in the praetentura and the principia which evidently faces east. The granaries are placed north of the principia and many of the interval and corner towers were detected. Unfortunately, it has not been possible to determine the function of at least three other substantial buildings despite some geophysical evidence for their internal structure.",N 464,"This survey has clearly shown that sub-surface features of archaeological interest survive on this most enigmatic of sites. Obviously only controlled archaeological excavation will confirm this, but this survey has provided a number of specific areas that may be tested in this way. The fact that these anomalies were elucidated in what is generally considered to be poor conditions for resistivity survey may give us a clue to their state of preservation.",N 1471,The barrows in Site 1have been clearly detected by the resistance survey and there is evidence to suggest that at least some of these mounds had ditches surrounding them. No anomalies were detected that might indicate the limits of the site. The resistance anomalies at Site 2 are mostly assigned modern or topographical origins and there is nothing in the data that can help to clarify the archaeological interpretation of the site. The gradiometer survey has provided little information of archaeological interest for either site. Three possible ditch type anomalies were noted in Site 2 but this interpretation remains inconclusive.,N 482,"The survey has produced evidence of a substantial and extensive settlement in the fields investigated. To plan or delimit it completely would require considerably more fieldwork. To the east of the A6 a southern limit may have been established, but on the evidence of the susceptibility values the eastern limit could lie well beyond the area surveyed.",N 1472,"During June and July 1999 geophysical surveys were carried out in six areas around the Cathedral precinct. A large linear anomaly was detected along College Green by both EM31 and Electrical imaging, but not by GPR. On the Watergate, possible evidence for an ancient slipway may have been detected by the GPR survey. The old Palace Garden was surveyed using electrical imaging lines, which have shown strong evidence of landscaping in the area. In the remaining areas the techniques appear to have either located modern services or aspects of the underlying geology.",Y 1468,"The magnetometer survey provided evidence of the distribution and full extent of occupation, showing that it extended throughout the greater part of the hillfort.",Y 467,"Resistivity survey was undertaken at Mohun Castle, South Perrot, Dorset, in an attempt to locate any surviving buried features associated with the former castle within part of the scheduled area to the south of St Mary's Church. This was necessary because the Parrett and Axe Parish Council were considering extending the graveyard of the church in this direction. The site conditions proved well suited to the technique and a range of features were located both within and outside the surviving parts of the castle moat. Of these, a number from within the moated area are of likely archaeological significance whilst a number of features beyond, including a possible drainage system, are of less certain, but possibly more recent, origin.",N 1467,"Much of the site is obscured by modern fill and the small area remaining provides only limited data. The resistivity survey offers no clear evidence for the presence of masonry, but some weak anomalies occur and the presence of slight structural or other features cannot be disproved. The observed magnetic activity includes two features which could represent pits, and one of these showed a disturbed fill of possible archaeological significance when tested by auguring.",N 1469,The survey was not able to define an eastern edge to the remains. The SE corner appears clear of archaeological features and only in the NE corner were there any signs of possible archaeological features independent of surface indication.,Y 470,"This survey adds very little positive information to what is already known about the site. Unsuitable ground conditions made coverage very patchy and at some distance from the original finds. An area of magnetic disturbance of indeterminate significance was located on top of the ridge upon which the tower is situated. However, there is only limited evidence for possible associated features close to the ridge. It must be emphasized that burials are only rarely directly detectable by geophysical means and then only on soils more favourable than the gravel at Hunstanton.",Y 473,"A detailed archaeological interpretation of a resistivity survey must usually be based on the plan of the features detected as well as the magnitude of the readings. Here the area involved is rather too small to give features extensive enough to be interpreted with much confidence, and additionally the 1.5 m reading interval theoretically only allows features some 3 m across to be resolved. There is, however, a considerable disturbance in area II for which one possible explanation would be the presence of buried masonry. The possibility of other minor features in area I also cannot be excluded.",N 474,"Very similar anomalies are visible in the plots of both the Wenner and the double dipole resistivity data. One feature could represent a silted ditch or a damp hollow. There are also localised positive anomalies of the kind to be expected from masonry or structural remains, particularly at the north east corner of the survey. However, some of the activity in this area could be due to modern interference not suppressed in the processing.",Y 475,"This resistivity survey revealed some clear anomalies, including a rectangular outline which may possibly be a ditched enclosure. If any substantial building foundations are present they might lie in the disturbed area at the north of this enclosure, although they cannot be excluded elsewhere. Strong diagonal features, probably trackways or ditches, are visible across the north west and south east corners of the survey.",Y 476,"The survey of the motte has detected several high resistance anomalies suggestive of building remains. Although the responses are clearly defined, a precise archaeological interpretation is difficult. It is uncertain whether the data represent one large rectangular building with a possible tower at the northwest corner, or a range of buildings. The anomalies at the northwest corner suggest a better state of preservation. There is some evidence for the remains of a wall enclosing the motte. No clearly defined anomalies of archaeological interest have been detected within the bailey. Although some discrete high resistance anomalies have been observed in the northwest of the area, they may represent modern material.",N 477,"Resistivity survey of various areas of the Giant provided some evidence for changes to the outline of the figure through time. There are indications that a cloak may once have hung from the Giant's left arm, although there is no conclusive evidence for the existence of a severed head in the same area. Changes have been made to the length of the phallus, and it is likely that the figure once possessed a navel. The survey results gave no indication that there have ever been horns on the Giant's head. Positive identification of the lettering/symbols between the feet was not possible by resistivity. An area in the south west quadrant of the earthwork (the Trendle) on the crest of the hill above the figure was also surveyed. This produced some anomalies but no definite interpretation can be placed upon them.",Y 478,"The general strength and distribution of the anomalies conform to the expected character of the site. The distribution of features is clear; there is a group of anomalies which might indicate an enclosure with features within it in the left hand half of the magnetomer survey plot, and part of another less disturbed enclosure is visible towards the right. Between the enclosures are two similarly aligned ditches.",Y 480,"The conditions for magnetic detection at Meare were not particularly favourable and few anomalies of possible archaeological significance were found. Scanning with the magnetometer between the East and West villages showed no sign of a causeway, although even if present, such a feature, probably only constructed of organic materials, would not be expected to have strong magnetic properties.",Y 481,"This survey of a small area close to visible coastal exposures of Roman industrial debris was requested as a consequence of questions raised by an excavation at the site in 1984. The survey located a substantial magnetic anomaly which could plausibly represent a kiln, but conditions were shown to be unfavourable for any more detailed examination of the site, and no clear evidence could be obtained to indicate the presence or extent of any related archaeological features or activities.",N 484,"The survey has shown that at least some buried features are detectable with the magnetometer and these include ditches and evidence of occupation. It is probable, though, that this is a partial representation and only the most magnetic fills have been detected where they are least obscured by overburden. Although background magnetic susceptibility samples are clearly high throughout the site, confirmed by spot sampling further afield, local concentrations of the strongest readings do appear to be localised and would appear to support the likelihood of occupational activiity in the vicinity of some of the anomalies interpreted as pits or sunken-featured buildings.",N 479,A considerable number of local magnetic anomalies of probable archaeological significance were revealed by this magnetometer survey. Some of them are of a strength typical of occupation sites and could represent the sites of buildings or accumulations of domestic debris. Other weaker anomalies are likely to be caused by ditches which appear to form a system of enclosures.,Y 485,"The Titsey villa site appears, on the basis of the resistivity evidence, to be a complex of buildings with a long boundary wall to the southeast, enclosing a central courtyard or garden area. Resistivity values carry no dates with them, of course, and the buildings we may have identified may belong to a quite different period of time. However, given the isolated nature of the site we consider this to be less likely than the conclusion we are drawing that the buildings belong to the same period and are interconnected in a functional way.",N 486,"The aim of the ground penetrating radar survey of Shrewsbury Abbey was to investigate the form of the east and north ends of the abbey, and to confirm the results of a previous resistivity geophysical survey. The general stratigraphy of the site as observed with the radar sections was characterised by flat, continuous reflectors. In a number of locations, these characteristic reflectors were disrupted over a considerable distance along and between survey lines, possibly indicating archaeological targets. Significant disruptions were found corresponding to a region of high resistance readings in the previous geophysical survey, which were attributed to the buried choir. Similarly, disruptions were found corresponding to a second distinct high resistance region of unknown origin. Disruptions were also found wiithin several metres of the present east end of the church, corresponding to the extent of the apse.",N 487,"The survey appears to confirm the extension of the curving wall, found in the excavation of 1995, around and parallel to the Chapter House at least as far as the cloisters to the west. It also reveales the outline and some internal details of the Guesten Hall, demolished in 1861, of which a number of drawings exist. The radar evidence tallies with these drawings, increasing confidence in the plot of the curving wall.",N 489,"Archaeological features of one or more periods would appear to have a focus within an enclosure at the eastern extremity of the site, where ancient industrial activity has given the soil exaggerated magnetic values. Soil magnetic susceptibility falls off from this area becoming negligible to the south west where the greater part of the survey is very quiet. Although it is very improbable that features exist in these quiet areas it is possible that a lack of enhancement from burning processes makes magnetic detection here unsatisfactory.",N 490,Resistivity survey identified some anomalies although their nature cannot really be determined without further investigation.,N 491,"The survey recorded eastern and western continuations of the ditch feature investigated by the Cornwall Archaeological Unit. To the east, in Area B, the feature was found to curve southward toward Old Road. However, the results from Area A suggest that the feature may run westward in a straight line across the application area. Several other linear responses of archaeological potential were also located, particularly in the western part of the study area, though their origin is less certain. Some are responses from former field divisions, while others may be agricultural in origin. The site was found to be subject to strong magnetic disturbance generated by underlying geological variations and possibly recent agricultural activity. Responses from these sources will have obscured archaeological type anomalies and hindered interpretation of the data.",N 492,"The fluxgate gradiometer recorded potential archaeological remains in all four locations investigated by the survey. The majority of the responses relate to remains of more recent field boundaries, possible ancient field systems and past cultivation practices. Survey at site C, Stencoose, detected a complex of ditch anomalies several of which appear to form an enclosure. A further group of linear anomalies was recorded at Site D, Wheal Plenty, that could be associated with the former small holding and/or earlier settlement.",N 493,"Potential archaeological remains were recorded in all five survey locations. The responses detected by the gradiometer mainly indicate the presence of possible buried ditches, former field boundaries and cultivation effects. Survey at Bodway (Sites B and C), recorded a complex of overlapping ditch anomalies, suggesting multi-period development.",N 494,"The gradiometer survey has identified a complex of archaeological features in three of the survey areas. These include two probable ring ditches, a possible Round enclosure and a presumed post medieval farmstead. Elsewhere there are a few archaeological type responses but the narrow survey corridor, together with the geological and agricultural complications, make interpretation of the results difficult.",N 495,"The elliptical amphitheatre was clearly defined by the resistivity survey. The entrance appears to be at the southern end, while several other possible features were found both inside and outside the theatre.",Y 496,"Magnetometer survey revealed a pattern of boundary ditches and other features with activity concentrated at the western side of the site and diminishing towards the east. These results are consistent with features exposed in a previous trial excavation which suggested a row of buildings along the road with wells, pits and industrial activity. There is also good correlation between the magnetometry findings and an earlier geophysical survey, carried out by Bradford University, on a smaller area of the site.",Y 497,"Resistivity survey confirmed the presence of archaeological anomalies although some of the features found may be natural in origin. It was difficult to identify the plan of the external buildings. However, the survey did provide some evidence for the presence of walls in certain areas.",Y 498,Resistivity traverses provided indications for the remains of a road. Magnetometer survey of another area produced evidence for possible linear ditch-like features and one highly magnetic anomaly.,Y 427,"A metal detector survey was carried out in the fields immediately outside the walled area of the Romano-British town of Venta Icenorum, to the north, west and south of the monument. The survey produced a number of Roman coins and artifacts from the first to fourth century AD. Other finds included Iron Age La Tene style brooches, a Middle Saxon pin and a number of medieval and post-medieval items.",Y 499,An apparent floor slab obscures underlying deposits in the central and north-eastern part of the site. Two areas of complex anomalies on the western part of the site were thought to to be of archaeological interest. A traverse in the south-eastern side of the site located two anomalies which may represent double ditches or pits.,Y 501,"The geophysical and desk studies have failed to reveal any archaeological remains within the area of the proposed fishing lake. However, minor features may be preserved under ridges of the mediaeval field system.",Y 488,"The resistance contrast between rose beds and trees in the ornamental garden area masked any response there might have been from the buried archaeology. A more productive response was obtained from the resistivity survey in the school playing fields. The radar survey detected several interesting anomalies, including some which correlate with earlier excavations at the site. However, some anomalies detected by the resistivity survey in the playing fields area were not readily apparent in the radar data.",Y 421,"The results from shallow level readings (0-1m deep) give the impression of mixed general fill with few distinct features. However, several clear features are to be seen in the deeper levels (1-2.4m deep) including a probable drain.",Y 431,"The results indicate that the monastic church probably extended for at least 50 meters east of the crossing. An adjacent structure to the north may be of monastic origin, or may not. There is some slight indication of a transeptal chapel to the north.",N 436,"The expected services and trenches were located within the area surveyed. Within the dam, various features were detected although no vertical or horizontal boundaries of significance could be detected.",Y 433,Significant anomalies were discovered in areas A and D during the first seasons's work. The positions of the anomaly zones were confirmed by a transect across the site the following year.,Y 426,The resistivity survey seems to have detected mainly geological anomalies. The magnetometer survey appears to have detected a few small anomalies which may be indicative of archaeological features.,Y 502,"Following a successful trial geophysical survey, using Ground Penetrating Radar on two areas of the original site of the Globe Theatre, it was decided that a full survey using this technique might be capable of resolving some of the remaining questions about the structure and layout of the original Globe Theatre. The full survey was successful. Anomalies were identified beneath the basement slab. This Assessment of the Potential for further analysis concludes that using templates of likely theatre diameters in conjunction with the frequency and location of the anomalies detected, the data can suggest a most likely diameter for the rebuilt theatre. In addition, information about the diameter of the first theatre on the site can be suggested. As it was not possible to conclude that all the anomalies detected by the radar survey are associated with the structure of either the first or second Globe, it is recommended that limited trial trenching at appropriate locatons be carried out in order to a) confirm the radar data and b) determine whether certain groups of anomalies are the remains of the Scheduled Ancient Monument",N 503,The objective of the survey was achieved. There is clear evidence of the presence of the foundations of a building on the site.,N 504,"A strong anomaly, of a kind likely to be caused by buried iron, was found in each survey. Each anomaly was located within the surrounding ditch of each barrow and all have characteristics which could plausibly be attributed to iron wheel rims buried at some depth.",Y 505,"The survey was unable to provide any evidence to support the case for Grim's Ditch and the Pear Wood earthwork ever having been linked together. However, it is possible that traces of the ditch have been masked by gravel extraction, or the resistivity meter may not have been set to probe deeply enough.",Y 506,"Geophysical survey of a total of 8.25 ha have been carried out within 40 areas along the presumed line of the Wansdyke. Of these the following have located evidence for the dyke where previously no information had been available: Fields 95, 97, 99, 112, 116, 133.0 and 141. In fields 100 and 112 further archaeological features were detected that may have an association with the dyke. In several areas geophysical survey indicated that there may be a ditch on each side of the bank",Y 507,"Conditions at this site produced a complex and disturbed resistivity response against which only the most substantial wall footings can be recognised with much confidence. Anomalies are visible which from their position and alignment could well represent drains, but if that is the correct interpretation they are not very clearly defined and must be of slight construction or poorly preserved.",N 508,"Resistivity and magnetometer surveys were carried out at Hinton St Mary, Dorset, to provide detailed information about the immediate setting of an important 4th-century Roman mosaic unearthed in 1963. Previous excavation at the site had only provided a partial indication of the true pattern of the Roman remains. Further information was now required in order to assist site management. The survey succesfully revealed evidence for a substantial complex of buried building remains and ditched features - mainly in the scheduled area (SAM Dorset 711) but also extending outside it. The character of the Roman remains can now be more fully appreciated and this will enable improved management and interpretation of the site in the future.",N 509,An investigation into the location of ancient flint mines at Harrow Hill using geophysical techniques was a success and marked anomalies were recorded in relation to the position of known flint mines.,Y 510,"The results of the resistivity and gradiometer surveys suggest that the centre of the site may have been the location of two demolished buildings. A third building may have stood to the south, and there is evidence for a house platform and substantial foundations in the southwestern corner. A series of sub-rectangular anomalies in the east of the site have been interpreted as fish ponds with signs of them having been linked together.",Y 511,"The 1990 resistivity survey delineated a number of features, and plans for further investigation could be made based on the results in a number of promising areas. The 1992 resistivity survey to the north-east of the castle appears to have located the boundary bank at the northern edge of the medieval village, as well as a number of features. The magnetometer survey revealed little of archaeological significance except for two roughly linear anomalies.",Y 513,"Almost all the finds have been classed as ordnance or 'rubbish' with the exception of one small iron rock-splitting wedge, possibly from C17 quarrying.",Y 514,"The site responded satisfactorily to magnetometer survey. Some of the inner ditch was located, and the presence of a settlement within the hillfort demonstrated. No evidence for archaeological features was obtained from the field just outside of the western defences, and susceptibility values were relatively low compared with those taken from the interior of the hillfort.",Y 369,"A fluxgate magnetometer survey was carried out in the interior of the hillfort of Old Winchester Hill in order to assist the management and interpretation of the site. The survey was only a limited success, as the presence of ferrous contamination from wartime activity inhibited the detection of archaeological features in some areas of the survey, and only a sparse distribution of anomalies consistent with Iron Age occupation features was detected. Although the interior of the hillfort contains well preserved earthwork evidence (mapped by the RCHME), in general there was a poor correspondence between the geophysical and topographical surveys, the exception being that traces of possible round-houses surviving as earthworks (recessed platforms) frequently coincide with localised anomalies typical of domestic occupation features such as pits and hearths. In summary, the results are relatively uninformative on the internal layout of the hillfort, suggesting that former settlement has been relatively slight or has only left minor traces in the chalk sub-soil such as post-holes (generally beyond the limit of detection by magnetometry). The presence of upstanding earthworks may also have interfered with the detection of sub-surface features.",N 383,"A geophysical survey was carried out over the cropmark of a suspected barrow at Glebe Farm near Higham Ferrers, Northants in response to a request from the Central Archaeology Service of English Heritage. The aim of the survey was to locate the cropmark feature on the ground, confirm its interpretation as a barrow, and map any additional related internal and external features. Magnetometer and resistivity surveys were carried out and located a series of features of greater complexity and extent than the single ring-ditch anticipated from the cropmark evidence. The results indicate the presence of at least six annular and oval ring-ditches with interrupted circuits and a triangular enclosure. Other possible ditch alignments were also detected, perhaps forming a second enclosure around the ring ditches.",N 515,"A geophysical survey was carried out on the site of the Abbey of St. Benet at Holm near Horning in Norfolk in August 1996 at the request of the English Heritage regional Inspector of Ancient Monuments. The site has suffered badly from erosion due to flooding of the adjacent river Bure and it was proposed that flood defences on the river bank be rebuilt. Thus, the survey was requested to detect archaeological features near the river that might be affected by the work and to improve understanding of this large and complex medieval abbey site. Unfortunately, owing to the extremely dry conditions pertaining at the time of the survey, results from the site were not good and little unequivocal evidence for the remains of buildings associated with the abbey has been recovered. However, a number of linear anomalies were detected in the resistivity survey that may be caused by buried wall footings and these have been mapped on an earlier topographic survey by the RCHME.",N 516,Both methodologies proved successful in locating the continuation of expected features (the amphitheatre bank and suspected further Anglian graves) and additional features thought to indicate evidence of earlier occupation on the site.,N 517,"A number of features probably associated with the Roman road were located, including the road surface and drains either side. Associated anomalies may represent gullies, slots, buildings foundations and possible burial pits.",Y 518,"The survey showed several anomalies, however none could be positively interpreted as archaeological features.",Y 519,"The survey highlighted a number of magnetic anomalies of potential archeological features. These lay predominantly in the western quarter of the field, and would require further archaeological investigation, should they be threatened by mechanical stripping.",N 520,"Both the geophysical techniques have found a number of anomalies which correlate well with known archaeological or modern features. These include the North Bastion and the covered reservoir in the north moat, the projections to the curtain wall south of Brass Mount and the drainage in the north-eastern and eastern moats. Results from the north-western and western moats suggest a very mixed nature to the upper fill which, together with the conductive nature of the deeper deposits, are responsible for masking deeper features. A number of interesting anomalies have been found in the moat to the west of St. Thomas's Tower. These have been interpreted as old structures, remains or workings including a probable culvert crossing the line of the ditch. The radar has also found evidence of the Lion Gate and Tower and its associated fortifications beneath the south west wharf area. These correlate reasonably well with the known plan of the Lion Tower.",N 521,"A considerable number of anomaly patterns were revealed. Some of these can be equated with the former mining activity in the area and others with known former field boundaries. There are, nevertheless, a number of anomalies suggestive of archaeological features which will require further investigation should they be threatened by the proposed developments. The areas within which further investigation will be required are all to the east of the dismantled railway.",N 522,The survey located several linear anomalies whose origin is difficult to determine.,N 523,The survey located a complex of linear anomalies on a rise to the east of Barnetby Wold Farm. These are probably archaeological in nature.,N 524,"Areas 1 and 2 contained a large ammount of recent ground disturbance. Anomalies located within Area 3, however, may prove to be interesting, particularly those anomalies located to the south of the area where cropmarks were previously recorded.",N 525,"Geophysical survey was undertaken at Fawler Roman Villa, Oxon, (SAM OX 73) in response to a request from the Monuments Protection Programme (MPP) of English Heritage. The scheduled status of the site is currently under revision and it was felt that more infomation regarding the nature and extent of any surviving buried archaeological features was required for this to be carried out effectively. Magnetic and resistivity surveys were undertaken, both successfully illustrating the presence of buried archaeological features within the currently scheduled area. In addition, clear evidence of features extending beyond the latter to the west was provided by the magnetometer survey. Unfortunately it is not possible to confidently attribute any of the detected features to a particular period based on the geophysical evidence alone. However, the sustained Roman activity identified by excavation at the site certainly suggests that many of the features revealed by the geophysical survey are likely to Roman in origin.",N 526,"The results of the gradiometer survey provided no further information about the underlying archaeology in the areas surveyed. the main features detected with this method were a high pressure gas pipeline and drainage pipes. The resistivity survey detected several parallel and perpendicular linear anomalies of potential archaeological significance near the line of an old field boundary. A trial trench was excavated to a depth of 0.5 m and provided evidence of stone-built structures. The high-resistivity anomalies show the continuations of some of these features together with the possible presence of various other structures.",N 472,"Both phosphate and magnetic susceptibiltiy surveys were, in the main inconclusive. However, it might be significant that some of the few magnetic anomalies detected in a previous AML survey (AML Report 3405) were in the SW corner of the field , where both phosphate and susceptibilty readings are high.",N 527,"The majority of magnetic responses on the site were caused by medieval ridge and furrow. Other anomalies were identified which may be interpreted as part of a system of modern agriculture. Several linear anomalies that are not easily interpreted as part of the agricultural systems mentioned above were also observed, although these might post-date the medieval period. Two of the linear anomalies were probably caused by parallel ditches denoting a trackway running north-south.",N 528,"The report contains details of geophysical surveys carried out at seven iron-working sites during 1996. The following conclusions were among those reached in the report: 1. The work reported has confirmed that geophysical surveys of ironworking sites, particularly when using a combination of methods provides a quick and efficient way of obtaining archaeological information. 2. The techniques employed show up a wide range of features, enabling clear differences to be seen between the surveys. 3. Features not necessarily related to ironworking were detected. 4. Organisational aspects of some of the sites can be determined from the data eg. the location of slag dumps. 5. The high resistivity of ground containing large quantites of charcoal was not recognised before this work was undertaken. 6. A combined study of the chemical properties of slag and geophysical responses must be considered when interpreting this type of site. 7. The potential of the Bilsdale/Ryedale area for this type of research work is unparalleled.",Y 413,"The report presents the results of a Ground Probing Radar Survey of part of the West Moat of the Tower of London.

It also indicated a low contrast zone and areas of disturbed fill and services.",Y 443,The results of the geophysical survey have permitted a tentative reconstruction of the layout of buildings in the moated area and confirmed the existence of a gatehouse and bridge. Evidence for a separate rectangular building has been detected outside the moated enclosure.,Y 377,"The results of the geophysical survey has correlated well with known features on the site. One of the ring ditches shows up on both magnetometer and resitivity surveys, the other only as a weak resistance anomaly.",Y 420,"A number of anomalies detected by the survey have been identified as of likely archaeological origin. The report suggests that these provide evidence that the hilltop round is part of a larger system, including multiple enclosures.",Y 414,"The resistivity survey between the building and surrounding moat has detected the following: 1.A linear high resistivity anomaly to the southeast of the manor house, which appears to represent three sides of a four sided feature, and seems likely to represent wall footings. 2. Zones of high resistivity in the eastern and western corners of the site , the latter having edges parallel to the building.",Y 422,"The resistance survey revealed the rest of the building found in Site A during the 1958 excavations, and also a hitherto unknown building some 75m to the east. The area between the two buildings had many small and incoherent anomalies, however a number of them were thought to be archaeological, possibly representing small structures and enclosures. The magnetometer survey was less informative but several anomalies were detected including a strong linear anomaly to the east of the villa and a number of anomalies of a thermoremanent nature reflecting either hearths, kilns, or general magnetic noise from bricks or tiles.",Y 445,"The resistivity survey clearly detected the broad ditch of the enclosure. The western ditch butts against a thick deposit of alluvial clay with lower resistance than the ditch fill, thus a certain amount of filtering of the data was required to enhance it.",Y 448,"The report concludes that large and widespread resistivity anomalies occur at the centre of the site. However, the survey was unable to provide a clear-cut plan due to technical problems and the possibily robbed out nature of the underlying structures.",Y 416,"The resistivity survey of the church area revealed a complex situation, the most obvious feature being a large rectangular building to the west of the standing chapel. Many linear anomalies and cells of high and low resistance were also evident within the church. In the paddock area, the resistivity survey detected a very low resistance ditch surrounding a square, high resistance feature interpreted as a dovecote. The magnetometer survey of the same area showed a tremendous amount of 'noise' concentrated to the east side of the survey. However, filtering of the data revealed anomalies coincident with some of those detected by the resistivity survey.",Y 441,"The resistivity survey has detected a number of linear low resistance anomalies, whose axes predominantly trend north-south or east-west beneath the gardens nearest to the Queen's House. These have been interpreted as Tudor or later garden features. A number of linear high resistivity anomalies have been interpreted as wall features connected with the formal gardens. Extensive areas of disturbance were found in the area corresponding to the 1878 tunnel excavation and the dry dock, and the existence of a drain was confirmed. However, the WWII air raid shelters and parade ground were not detected.",Y 451,"Viewed in isolation, the resistivity survey has failed to identify any anomalies which can be interpreted with total confidence as being archaeological in origin. However, the survey has pinpointed several areas of potential interest that may be considered worthy of further archaeological investigation.",Y 449,"The geophysical survey at Hare Park has produced a collection of remarkably clear magnetic anomalies associated with five of the barrows which were surveyed. Information has been provided on the size, character, and internal features of these, and in three cases the surrounding environs have been recorded magnetically Anomalies of interest were detected at another barrow, but the remaining supposed barrows have proved to problematic to pinpoint, possibly due either to their destruction, or unreliable grid reference information.",Y 450,"This additional geophysical survey at Hare Park has failed to identify any of the 'lost' barrows that were not located in the earlier survey. The area alongside the entance driveway to Four Mile Stable Farm was too disturbed for magnetic survey. Resistivity work close to the new barn failed to identify any positive archaeological features, and magnetic scanning and detailed survey, north of Lower Hare Park proved inconclusive.",Y 382,"The results of the resistivity survey were disappointing, partly due to a fault in the equipment. A few anomalies were identified within the hillfort area as possible features.",Y 530,"The resistivity survey has detected a number of high and low resistance anomalies of archaeological interest. The high resistance areas have been interpreted as part of the Iron-age rampart and two circuits of the Neolithic bank respectively. Lower resistance anomalies have been interpreted as irregular pits. Several modern features including a track, pipe trenches, and hard standing areas around buildings were also detected by the survey.",Y 531,"The resistivity survey has helped clarify some of the details of the earlier survey carried out by the Institute of Archaeology in 1987. The suggested pits were not located, but the broad conclusions were the same. Magnetometer survey proved unfeasible due to radio-wave interference. The surveyors considered the compound area so disturbed that the geophysical results there could not be interpreted with any confidence",Y 532,"The resistance survey was unable to substantiate reports of buildings in the survey area. However, some subtle anomalies were noted, although their archaeological significance could not be interpreted.",Y 438,"This extension of the 1992 geophysical survey has led to the following conclusions: A walled annexe has been located attached to the west side of the fort. The annexe appears to have been protected by a system of ditches. A complex pattern of ditches extends west from the fort. The probable foundations of three towers and four well-preserved barrack blocks were detected in the Lambing Garth. Geophysical survey within the fort interior has located walls that appear to correlate with those marked on a C19 excavation plan.",Y 439,"The results of the geophysical survey conducted during the 1994 season can be summarised as follows. Major components of civil and military archaeological activity have been distinguished. The geophysical evidence suggests that the vicus in the study area is not extensive and is confined to well-defined blocks. A Roman road marked on the OS map has been relocated and the road leading from the East Gate has been mapped. A complex pattern of resistivity lineations east of the fort was thought to reflect walled enclosures of unknown date. At least four ditches have been mapped to the E and SE flanks of the fort. Some sort of industrial activity (possibly kilns) has been detected imediately east of the fort.",Y 418,"The results of the geophysical surveys carried out during the 1995 season were summarised as follows: The continuation of Dere Street into the Bogs field was determined, and irregular shaped anomalies, possibly representing quarries were noted. Several linear high resistivity anomalies have been interpreted as possible wall footings, and linear positive magnetic anomalies as ditches. Three intense dipolar magnetic anomalies to the west of Dere Street were detected. High resistance anomalies to the south-west of the fort may indicate building remains Intense magnetic anomalies to the east of the survey area appear to reflect the presence of wall footings and an external ditch.",Y 533,"Approximately ten hectares of land adjacent to Birdoswald Fort on Hadrians Wall were surveyed using resistivity methods. The survey was able to detect large numbers of major features; the Turf Wall, Ditches and Vallum were identified. A number of large features passing across the Turf Wall and Vallum were observed, as were a great range of other features, including some possible buildings. The site has been ploughed at various times and few small scale features were identified as a result.",N 535,"The survey work at the three Penrith 'henges' resulted in mixed success for the geophysical techniques. The Little Roud Table henge was relocated, and in addition, it proved possible to answer some of the other questions posed. However, the geological and pedological conditions were not particularly helpful.",Y 536,"The magnetometer survey in 'The Bull Pen' field revealed a cluster of ditched enclosures, linked together, and containing a number of scattered anomalies. A segmented ditch, and possible track was also detected. The survey of 'Loveridge's South' field revealed a more substantial ditch system. This area is densly packed with anomalies that seem likely to represent intensive occupation and activity just within the west rampart. Certain features appear superimposed, suggesting structural succession.",Y 537,"The gradiometer survey recorded possible archaeological anomalies in each of the three survey areas. The most convincing of these were detected in the centre of the southern section and included several ditches and pit responses that suggest possible occupation activity. Elsewhere ditch lengths and isolated pit anomalies were also recorded, though their position and location in areas producing numerous, strong geological / pedological responses leaves their interpretation in doubt.",N 538,"The gradiometer results from Site A indicate two former field boundaries that are marked on early editions of the OS map. In addition, there are a few linear, ditch type features and several pit like responses. Unfortunately the results are confused by a marked increase in magnetic noise in the eastern half of the survey area that is thought to be a geological phenomenon. At Site B the survey has identified a second ring, presumably a ditch, outside of the main Round and just clipped by the proposed working easement. There are also several linear anomalies and a large pit / industrial type response within the pipeline corridor. The results from Site C suggest the presence of two diches, possibly drains in the western half of the field and a large curving anomaly in the eastern half. The latter appears to be associated with a geological dyke or possibly a substantial ditch feature of archaeological interest.",N 539,"The gradiometer survey proved to be disappointing in that few anonalies could, with confidence, be interpreted as having been produced by archaeological features. In one particular instance an existing barrow appeared to be unresponsive to the technique, while anomalies considered to be associated with local geological/ pedalogical variation were found to be commonplace.",N 540,"The resistivity and magnetometer surveys have both provided evidence of considerable activity, both occupation and otherwise on the site. A comparison with the SCM data from the 1960s showed the earlier survey to be incomplete and flawed. However, it was considered still impossible to postulate a 'town plan' for Cadbury Castle in any particular period.",Y 542,"Very few anomalies of potential archaeological significance were encountered. However, archaeological features were discovered during subsequent excavation in an area where geophysical survey had revealed no clear anomalies.",Y 541,"There appears to be a lack of archaeological features in the survey results, though the dataset is confused by noisy magnetic responses associated with the underlying metamorphic rocks. These anomalies are of a strength and nature that can swamp the magnetic fields normally connected with more ephemeral archaeological features. However, the presence of a few ditch type anomalies in the data suggest that should 'major' archeological features be surviving at the site these would have been detected by the gradiometer.",N 543,"Archaeological features were found in all six areas examined with the gradiometer. The survey revealed a dense complex of former field systems and parts of possible enclosures. At least two sites of settlement activity were identified in the results. Superimposed on these features are a series of Medieval land divisions which represent the existing field boundaries. In addition, evidence of possible building remains has been detected on a mound thought to date from the period of recent mining.",N 544,Archaeological features were found in both sections of the proposed road scheme examined with the gradiometer. The western section was found to contain the remains of two possible barrows superimposed on a complex of ditch anomalies. A few anomalies were detected that may indicate the remains of occupation activity. Survey in the eastern section identified a network of ditches that suggest multiperiod development. As with the western area there were some indications of domestic settlement activity.,N 545,"Archaeological anomalies were identified in all five survey areas and include several double ditched features and a possible enclosure. The levels of magnetic response in the data were strong: while ditch type anomalies were clearly visible above the background noise, it has not been possible to interpret with the same degree of certainty many of the pit type responses. If however, an archaeological interpretation for the latter is correct, it would suggest intensive anthropogenic activity along much of the current investigation area.",N 546,The radar survey detected a high density of anomalies that could be interpreted as archaeological features in the south-western quarter of the survey area .,Y 549,"A large number of footing type features were detected in the survey area, concentrated towards the western end. The ground showed a lot of localised anomalies, at varying depths, which could not be identified. The site appears to contain a large amount of buried structures.",Y 550,"A potential buried tank (void), was located by the GPR survey at the rear of Brodsworth Hall, outside of the defined survey area. No potential buried tanks were found within the defined area of investigation, but the plan interpretation records other features which may be of interest within this survey area. These include the depth of fill forming the terrace, buried rubble, loose ground and other anomalous targets.",N 551,"Neither the magnetometer nor resistivity survey produced any clear evidence for a continuous outer ditch, although the resistivity survey gave the clearest response to the known earthwork in area A. The magnetometer survey did, however, locate ditch-like features, which are probably unrelated to the henge, as well as a number of pit-like anomalies clustered near to the henge.",Y 552,"Three differing geophysical techniques were employed at two areas of the site. Fluxgate gradiometry was carried out over the eastern extremity of Meare Village West, while fluxgate gradiometry, magnetic susceptibility (MS) sampling and resistivity survey were used on the western half of Meare Village East. The gradiometer identified several iron survey stakes buried by past excavators and a few weak anomalies that may be associated with burnt features. However, the levels of magnetic enhancement at the site are very low, as the results of the MS indicate. As a consequence, although the MS identified an area of slight enhancement that coincided with some of the upstanding mounds, neither magnetic technique succeeded in locating their limits. By contrast, the resistivity survey appears to have defined not only the extent but also the tops of the individual mounds, and possibly the edges of the old excavation trenches. On the basis of the pilot study further resistivity survey is recommended in the next phase of investigations. In addition, MS sampling intervals, will be of benefit in locating hearths, but this would be better carried out after removal of the turf cover in advance of excavation.",N 553,"The survey did not show any evidence for archaeological features, with the possible exception of the area around the Electrical Substation. However a number of unrecorded services were detected.",Y 554,"Although the magnetic results are disturbed by modern features, the resistance survey has produced positive archaeological results. Despite the small survey area, and the resultant problems of interpretation, there is a clear band of low resistance readings aligned east-west, in a position that would fit with a town wall ditch.",N 555,"The exact location of the Roman bath-house of Brocolotia, first identified by its excavator, in 1873 was subsequently ""lost"". In an attempt to relocate the outline of the foundations a resistivity survey was carried out. After computer filtering features of the subsurface structure were identified and located, and compared to a plan of the building drawn by Clayton. It was demonstrated that the site is very disturbed and although several possible subsurface linearities were identified, it could not be concluded that this was the exact site of the bath-house.",Y 556,"Resistivity surveying was carried out at Brocolitia to investigate unexcavated archaeological sites; a Milecastle, and an area to the south of the fort. Both the east and west walls of the Milecastle were located and there is evidence for the presence of a southern gateway. The survey in the Vicus area to the south of the fort detected a possible infilled ditch running around the outside of the fort, and anomalies that were tentatively interpreted as walls.",Y 557,"None of the data produced categorical evidence that there is greatly significant survival of contiguous structural remains from the medieval town in the two areas surveyed. Some possible structural features were identified at apparent depths of below 0.5m. These were overlain by succesive layers of topsoil, accumulated soil horizons and a band of inhomogenous material which could represent a rubble destruction layer. It is concluded that the upper 40-50 centimetres in both survey areas are likely to contain no substantial and contiguous archaeological remains. Below this, isolated structural reamains may survive on parts of the survey areas. It is recommended that these conclusions should be tested by means of limited trial trenching.",N 558,"Whilst a fuller picture of the below-ground archaeological features was obtained than was apparent on the air photographs, many points of detail remain unclear. In this respect, the present survey results may be of greatest value in providing a basis for selective, more detailed investigation by other techniques. Equally, the fieldwalking results, although positive in their identification of flint materials on the site, raise the problem of how the earlier prehistory of the area should be pursued.",N 559,"The survey, in spite of the difficulties presented by the limited accessible area and the interference from the pipe sections, has produced interpretable results from most of the area investigated. No anomlies likely to represent kilns could be identified, but other weaker anomalies which could relate to smaller-scale domestic or industrial features were detected. The site should therefore respond satisfactorily to magnetic investigation away from the immediate vicinity of the pipe itself.",N 560,"The geophysical investigation of three hectares of land at the centre of the Roman settlement in Great Chesterford has identified substantial archaeological remains indicative of fort and later town development. They consist of roads, structures and pits and a large circular ditched enclosure possibly of prehistoric origin.",N 561,"In the present case, mapping of topsoil magnetic susceptibility revealed strong magnetic contrasts indicative of local anthropogenic modification of the landscape. Detailed gridded magnetometry was used to locate the precise position of the probable Roman fortlet (known as a cropmark from aerial photographs) in order to inform the best route around the monument, and a full magnetic record was made in advance of pipeline installation. In addition, several areas were identified as having some archaeological potential, comprising linears probably representing former land divisions together with at least one curvilinear ditch which may be indicative of prehistoric activity: several worked flint were recorded in its vicinity. Areas containing groups of magnetic anomalies provisionally identified as pit forms were also recorded.",N 562,"A large number of sub-surface ""anomalies"" were identified, with significant overlaps between adjacent and coextensive survey lines. These were plotted on an overall plan of the survey area. Three major areas of activity were identified. Of these, the most important was situated in the south-western part of the courtyard where large subsurface anomalies were detected. These could be associated with a large structure such as the putative tunnel. It is recommended that the results should be verified by means of limited trial trenching.",N 563,"A large number of sub-surface ""anomalies"" were identified at depths of up to 1.80 meters, showing that the site is responsive to GPR and archaeological features can be located.",N 564,"Penetration to apparent depths of up to 2 metres was achieved but the signal at depths below approximately 1.2 metres was very weak. The quality of the data collected was reasonably good and the analysis suggests that most of the area contains approximately 1 metre of made up ground. This is likely to consist of mixed rubble which contains strong reflectors (possibly metal fragments) in places. Very few sub-surface services which do not have a manifestation on the surface were identified by the survey. Within the made ground a number of anomalies have been identified as the possible remains of shallow foundations. They appear to correlate well with the layout of Victorian tenements on both survey areas. Beneath the made ground a large number of significant reflectors were detected at apparent depths between 1 and 2 metres. It is concluded that these may represent a variety of archaeological features, although the nature of GPR does not yet allow the specific identification of these.",N 565,"The findings of the resistivity survey included a number of grassed over paths. Of these, the diagonal one on the west of the area was most clearly marked. The difference between its actual course and that marked on the tithe map suggests that the map is fairly schematic, and that other features marked on it may not be exactly placed. Other features identified include a thin arc of high resistivity, which may have been part of a complete circle, and a number of localised high resistance anomalies which may represent the root holes of shrubs rather than flower beds. The magnetometer survey detected the fountain basin which appears to be full of magnetic debris and a pipe extending from the fountain to the south.",Y 566,"The resistivity survey does not appear to have located any clear linear features of the kind which could represent medieval masonry footings, except perhaps close to the front of the house. Anomalies in the magnetic survey of the east lawn, and in both surveys of the orchard could indicate features associated with the medieval settlement. The distribution of such features corresponds well to enhanced magnetic susceptibility readings in the northern half of the orchard. The resistivity survey of the south lawn detected positive curving anomalies which could indicate either an enclosure, or a former gravel path surrounding the lawn.",Y 567,"Geophysical survey was conducted over three areas of the extensive archaeological landscape at Hamstead Marshall, Newbury, Berks., to examine the correlation between medieval features and the later re-modelling of the site into a 17th-century manor house and formal gardens. A combination of earth resistance and magnetic techniques were applied, with varied success, possibly conditioned by the change in geology from well drained plateau gravel over the higher ground to heavier clay as the site descends into the Kennet valley. The survey of the formal garden site confirmed the suitability of geophysical techniques for the location of ephemeral garden features and a plethora of anomalies were identified that augmented other available data sources. New evidence for the existence of an extensive drainage system throughout the formal garden site was reveled together with a more tentative identification of a series of tree planting pits over the area of the DMV.",N 568,"The gradiometer survey recorded a grid pattern of ditch anomalies aligned approximately north-south and east-west, that suggest the presence of a settlement. The results indicate a focus of occupation activity in the centre of the survey. The density and strength of the archaeological type responses can be seen to decline towards the northwest, though this may be due to a build up of peat deposits attenuating the signal. However, the survey recorded substantial regions of magnetic disturbance, particularly along the northeastern edge of the survey area. this interference, and gaps in the area surveyed due to dense vegetation cover, have complicated interpretation of the data.",N 569,"The results of the geophysical survey indicate a high degree of recent disturbance in the primary target area of the development area, however, it is not clear whether this recent disturbance is masking archaeological activity or whether it has destroyed any remains which may have been present. The gradiometer survey in the northernmost area identified a clear concentration of archaeological activity. The main linear feature associated with this activity appears to continue south where it turns eastwards out of the survey area. This activity most probably represents the remains of prehistoric or Romano-British settlement activity set within an extensive field system. The concentration of features most probabaly extends into the northern part of the primary target area to the west.",Y 570,"The resistivity survey confirmed that substantial masonry foundations are likely to survive from the demolished sections of the Abbey, although there were discontinuities in the plan which may be due to intermittent robbing of stone. The most clearly defined areas were at the west end of the church, and around the central crossing and trancepts. It is possible that the Lady Chapel was detected. Landscaping of the closter garden may have disturbed or obscured remains associated with the cloister and chapter house. Findings which may relate to the former monastic buildings include linear anomalies noted in the orchard. The magnetometer survey in the garden area showed considerable disturbance probably by buried iron and pipes, and the orchard area was relatively quiet.",Y 571,"The gradiometer results from Area A indicate that the site does not extend beyond the road revealed during excavation. The survey data show the road continuing for approximately 60m and then terminating. A strong ditch type anomaly has been detected to the east of the road and appears to represent a boundary ditch of some description. The resistance data from Area B give no clear indication of a building, although there are areas of high resistance that may be significant. There is no clear indication of the road extending into the area. A band of magnetic noise is visible in the data and this may be associated with burials",N 572,"As might be expected from the geological conditions, the results are magnetically quiet. A few low level linear and pit type responses have been noted, although these tend to be little more than trends in the data. some of these anomalies may be archaeological in nature, however, agricultural or natural origins are equally likely. There are no indications in the data of any ditches that might be associated with the barrow. The majority of the responses consist of iron spikes; anomalies which are characteristic of small ferrous items scattered in the topsoil. These could be the product of archaeological artefacts, but could equally have a more recent origin. There are no clearly significant concentrations of these noisy responses which might indicate the presence of a cemetery site.",N 573,"The survey revealed many anomalies with archaeological potential. As expected the rectilinear enclosure and annexes to the east found in an earlier AML survey were confirmed with remarkably similar results. Features to the north east of the enclosure have revealed more aspects and, in particular what appears to be the corner of another larger enclosure. To the north lies a very clearly defined sub-circular ring ditch of some 45-50 metres diameter, cut by a linear ditch type anomaly. There are several other strong linear anomalies crossing the site, some of which were thought to be contemporary with the ring ditch, while others have been interpreted as field boundaries.",Y 574,"The magnetometer survey has helped pinpoint both specific anomalies of interest and also general areas of increased noise. The latter may be of archaeological significance. The resistivity technique did not produce any meaningful results because of the prolonged drought.",Y 575,"Geophysical data indicate that the abbey grounds are considerably disturbed, with the 1920 excavation limits visible as a distinct change in soil properties. Several excavated features could be firmly correlated with geophysical anomalies and the road or monastic boundary evidently continues SE. Other anomalies of a likely archaeological nature exist within the unexcavated area and a possible early cloister was detected south of the church. No archaeological structures were detected beneath the abbey floor. The survey confirmed that Paylors field was farmed as medieval ridge and furrow, and a building structure or structures appear to be present at shallow depth to the north of the abbey cross. To the south of the abbey church evidence for a number of buildings was detected, as well as a hollow way extending due south of the abbey. The presence of a nuclear fallout shelter in the field was confirmed. No archaeological features were detected within the Almshouse Close or Allotment Gardens, with the exception of ridge and furrow in the former.",Y 576,"Geophysical survey found no evidence of major archaeological structures in the study area. Two medieval field systems were located, and a set of rectangular walled or banked enclosures were detected in the area south of the Abbey Lands Farm. Two areas of thermoremanent magnetisation were detected.",Y 577,"High resolution survey of the area immediately south of the Abbey has detected features consistent with the claustral range. However, it was clear that the subsoil is heavily disturbed. Geophysical survey of the Boulby Bank field revealed a strong pattern of ridge and furrow, a trackway or headland, and a set of strong geophysical lineations consistent with a wall (or stone bank) and ditch.",Y 578,The resistivity results revealed evidence for a possibly complex association of linear features and structures. Although no obvious plan of a temple structure was found within the enclosure there are a number of anomalies that hint to a building of some sort within the bank. The results suggest that there may be an entrance in the north eastern face of the enclosure rather than the southern side as previously assumed.,Y 579,"A Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) survey was carried out on what was believed to be the site of the 17th century Anatomy Theatre designed by Inigo Jones. The survey has identified sub-surface anomalous areas which could be consistent with the survival of some remains from the Theatre. It also suggests that the true location of the Theatre was a little to the east and north of what was previously supposed. The survey also identified additional anomalous areas which may be associated with other structures in the area, particularly that of the city wall along the western edge of the survey area. However, because of time and financial constraints, these have not been subjected to a complete analysis on this occasion.",N 580,"The gradiometer has located several anomalies of archaeological potential within the survey area, though the site was found to be magnetically noisy. A cluster of pit anomalies and linear responses were recorded and areas of increased magnetic activity that may be of archaeological interest. However, there is no obvious relationship between the various types of anomalies that were encountered that might indicate their precise origin.",N 581,"A large proportion of the survey area was found to be affected by strong magentic disturbance produced by mains service pipes. Other sources of interference were also recorded, including manhole covers, cable trenches and modern building debris. However, a magnetically weak 'L' shaped ditch type response and several pit anomalies were detected. Although their interpretation is tentative, they indicate that archaeology may survive within the application area.",N 582,"The gradiometer survey successfully recorded archaeological type anomalies forming a series of field systems and enclosures suggesting a settlement complex. By contrast, survey work carried out to the east and northeast found these areas to be magnetically quiet. It is therefore considered that the eastern and northern extents of the settlement complex may have been defined. However, the results of the survey give the strong impression that the settlement pattern continues to the west, and possibly to the south, of the development area.",N 583,"The results of the geophysical survey within the playing field of Ernolf School in general corroborate the conclusions of the previous survey. The responses recorded by the survey are considered to reflect modern drainage patterns and topographic features. No magnetic anomalies were identified that might be interpreted as representing archaeological features within the Alfred Hall Memorial Field. The linear anomalies recorded by the resistance survey are considered to be due to the presence of buried drains.",N 584,The data set is relatively noisy with several isolated responses across the site. This high level of magnetic noise may be associated with past use of the area for market gardens. One linear anomaly has been detected in the east of the survey and may represent a continuation of a linear feature apparent in aerial photographs.,N 585,"Scanning with the gradiometer found the site to be magnetically quiet with the exception of occasional responses from ferrous debris. Several potential archaological responses were noted near the supposed site of the hoard and these were recorded by subsequent detailed survey. No obvious marker of the hoard site was detected by the survey. However, SMR maps show the hoard site to be near fences bordering a tree plantation, therefore the response from the marker may have been masked by magnetic disturbance generated by the fences. A pair of magnetically weak, parallel linear responses recorded in the central and southern survey areas is considered to be associated with medieval field systems.",N 586,The interpretation of the detailed survey data has included a number of ferro-magnetic anomalies but no clear archaeological features. The scanning of the rest of the area did not detect any archaeological features.,N 587,"The results from this survey have provided a wealth of information as to the nature, location and extent of the possible archaeology within the study area. It is likely that archaeological features are present in all of the nine areas surveyed in detail. The quality of the data is good, and scanning suggests that significant concentrations of other anomalies are present within the area of interest. This is particularly encouraging in an area where the cropmark evidence is limited and field survey has found few artifacts.",N 588,The survey has provided a more extensive context for the original magnetic survey results. The interpretaion of the entire data set has allowed the identification of the most archaeologically sensitive areas.,N 589,"Scanning revealed the area of the proposed development to have a low background response and few strong anomalies were noted during this investigation. However, four areas were identified as being of potential interest and detailed survey was undertaken at these points. In general, the responses are not as coherent as those found during earlier work at Barnack. While it is believed that some of the responses are likely to be archaeological, it is possible that natural variation in the sand and gravel may have contributed to the observed dataset.",N 590,"The magnetometer scan at Archer's Wood failed to locate any magnetic anomalies indicative of archaeological activity. A strong linear anomaly interpreted as a modern service trench was located. The scan at Alconbury Hill also showed a weak magnetic response with only slight amorphous and dispersed anomalies occuring towards the south of the field. The gridded survey located a series of very weak anomalies running north-east to south-west across the area. These were interpreted as probably representing former ridge and furrow cultivation.",Y 591,The interpretation of the detailed survey data has indicated a concentration of archaeological features in the south western part of the site which might be associated with Pre-historic settlement.,N 592,"The fluxgate gradiometer survey along the southern boundary of the park recorded a number of anomalies suggesting anthropogenic activity associated with part of a possible enclosure. No pattern of building foundations is identifiable in the data of the resistance survey which was carried out at the northern end of the park. However, several areas of rubble spread have been recorded that may represent the remains of former dwellings.",N 593,"The gradiometer survey recorded a number of anomalies suggesting settlement activity to the north of the previous geophysical survey. These included ditch lengths, pit type anomalies and part of a possible hut circle. In addition, it was considered that areas of magnetic disturbance within the eastern part of the site may relate to the remains of the old village of Hinxton.",N 594,"The gradiometer survey succesfully recorded archaeological type responses in three of the four areas selected for survey. The sample within the cropmark complex showed good correlation with the aerial photographic evidence, although additional information was obtained from the gradiometer data. Two of the three survey blocks within areas devoid of cropmark features indicated the presence of probable archaeological features. The remaining area produced several responses characteristic of possible pits, however, they appear to be isolated anomalies which have no obvious archaeological context.",N 595,The survey has revealed several areas of increased susceptibility. Some of these are likely to be caused by modern disturbance and/or geological changes. However there are four particular areas for which an archaeological interpretation is tentatively offered.,N 596,"In area A, although ditches associated with the Roman road have been located magnetically, the majority of the results are confused by modern ferrous disturbance on the site. In area B, a complex of anomalies associated with ditches, trackways, pits and possible small-scale 'industrial-type' features has been identified.",N 597,"Archaeologically speaking the results are fairly inconclusive. The gradiometer survey has identified a number of ditch and pit type anomalies, but the responses tend to be weak and difficult to define. As such an archaeological interpretation for many of these anomalies remains tentative. The clearest archaeological anomalies occur in the eastern portion of the site, where the topsoil had been removed. The resistance survey revealed patterns of higher and lower resistance which are thought to reflect the underlying geology. However, they could equally be the product of isolated pockets of gravel occuring naturally in the soil matrix.",N 598,"The postulated Roman building was located by both magnetic and resistance surveys. In addition, a number of other anomalies of archaeological significance were identified, many of which do not appear to be related to the building. However, the definition of some anomalies was poor and interpretation is therefore, tentative. Some of the more ephemeral features have not been detected due to a lack of magnetic contrast between the fill and the chalk.",N 599,A number of possible archaeological anomalies that may relate to the nearby Roman settlement were detected in the northern half of the survey. The area suffered from intense magnetic interference from field boundaries and accumalated debris. As a result the majoity of the area responded very poorly to magnetometry.,N 600,"Scanning and detailed survey indicated possible archaeological activity in the north-eastern corner of the area sampled. However, no anomalies of likely archaeological potential were apparent elsewhere within the survey area.",N 601,"Pit like responses have been detected in several of the survey areas although interpretation of these anomalies remains tentative given the lack of any archaeological context. Only a few very weak linear anomalies have been noted and interpretaton of these remains inconclusive. Although the ridge and furrow has been detected in some areas, it has not hindered interpretation of the data.",N 602,"During 1996-7 a geophysical survey, backed by limited excavation, was carried out around the site of the previously excavated Roman villa at Titsey. The survey confirmed the existence of a second Roman villa on the site. In addition, two other buildings were identified, one certainly Roman and the other probably Roman. The survey also confirmed the existence of a considerable area of Roman courtyard, perhaps with additional features.",N 603,"The surveys have successfully identified a wealth of archaeological features. In addition to pinpointing sites visible on aerial photographs, numerous other previously unrecorded features have been mapped. The scanning and magnetic susceptibility work has identified several other areas of probable archaeological interest.",N 604,The survey has found evidence of continuation of the hill fort ramparts to the north of the hotel. In the north east corner of the fort there is evidence for a settlement site. The three areas investigated towards the middle of the fort found little of archaeological significance.,N 606,"The gradiometer survey has successfully confirmed the location of the known pottery site and suggested evidence for additional similar and associated features. The data suggests that the site extends towards the south and east. A zone of high resistance anomalies has been recorded in the north of the survey area, for which a natural origin seems most likely. However, some of the responses do have a rectilinear appearance and as such an archaeologicalorigin cannot be ruled out.",N 607,"The survey in St Nicholas' grave yard appears to have located the foundations and enclosing ditch of an earlier church at the site, and probably a family chapel and crypt of the 17th century. The surveys in Bapsey's Meadow proved less succesful with two linear responses interpreted as possible ditches, two rectilinear features and a number of modern features.",Y 608,"Geophysical survey was carried out in the garden of the Cedars, both resistivity and magnetic survey techniques were employed with the aim of locating possible archaeological featues. The survey results proved inconclusive. Although the possibility of archaeological features lying within the survey area still exists.",N 609,"On 24th February 1997, a geophysical survey was undertaken of a small section of the site at Marston Magna - an earthwork of a medieval moated manor. The results showed that there appeared to be little in the way of firm outline of any building foundations, but merely areas of rubble.",Y 610,"In general the results are comparable to those of the 1991 survey. The magnetic survey has identified a number of ditch and pit like responses; and the strength and position of these anomalies confirms that archaeological activity increases closer to the Roman road. The resistance data have revealed further evidence of possible buildings, although individual structures have not been defined.",N 512,"Resistance survey identified several areas of possible building remains along the eastern side of the inner bailey. Some of these relate to the former gate house. However, much of the interior of the inner bailey was found to be affected by disturbance due to a long period of occupation and by recent landscaping and excavation activities. The results of the gradiometer survey indicate a spread of ferrous material throughout the majority of the site. However, several strong magnetic responses have been identified as originating from potential archaeological remains. Despite often poor ground conditions more than 75% of the outer baily was investigated by geophysical survey. Remains of the road leading from the medieval village to the inner baily were recorded in addition to a second road or revetment running approximately north-south. Several areas of possible rubble spread were recorded, though no clear building patterns emerge from the results. The magnetic survey identified several possible archaeological type responses. However, the interpretation is tentative due to the disturbed nature of the site. The resistance survey in the Medieval settlement recorded a number of potential archaeological responses, though no clear building plans are apparent in the results. Although the results mainly reflect topographic effects, the courses of metalled surfaces have been traced across the site. The gradiometer results exhibit few archaeological type responses and disturbance from ferrous material is evident in this area.",N 611,"A trial geophysical survey, using GPR, was carried out in two areas of the original site of the Globe Theatre. The trial was designed to determine whether the technique was capable of identifying areas where known archaeological features were located and whether it was capable of identifying possible features beneath the 1.6m thick concrete raft beneath 1-15 Anchor Terrace. The results from the control area were excellent and repeatable and it is therefore concluded that the technique can, on this site, identify the positions of sub-surface archaeological features. The technique also successfully identified the bottom of the concret raft and indicated the presence of possible archaeological features beneath it. The trial survey therefore achieved both of its objectives and the report concludes that a full survey using this technique might be capable of resolving some of the remaining questions about the structure and layout of the original Globe Theatre. A detailed methodology for such a survey is presented and costed.",N 613,Eight survey areas were investigated magnetically. Very clear responses were obtained from two areas and these clearly indicate a complex of archaeological features. The other six areas failed to produce any magnetic anomalies that can be interpreted as being archaeological in origin.,N 614,Resistivity survey of DMV as part of MA Landscape Archaeology project. No anomalies of archaeological significance were detected within the small area sampled. Responses may have been affected by the wet weather and marshy ground.,Y 615,"Scanning showed the nothern section of the area to be magnetically quiet with all anomalies of archaeological potential detected in the southern part of the area. Detailed survey recorded four kiln like anomalies, one of which represents the kiln previously excavated by NAU. Several weaker responses were recorded though an archaeological interpretation remains tentative.",N 616,"Some distinguishing features were found to be present in the beacon, such as an anomalous area of high resistivity at a depth of 6 m. This was thought to be a large rock or boulder. Other smaller concentrations of high resistivity were also interpreted as boulders.",Y 617,"The resistance survey has been successful in identifying anomalies of archaeological interest. Although there is no definitive evidence for the southern wall, two targets have been identified, which would benefit from further archaeological investigation. Several anomalies have been detected which correspond to the available excavation plans, some can be related to features noted in 17th and 19th century maps and others are thought to be of archaeological interest, although their precise origin is unclear. Investigation of the possible mansion walls was impeded by the small size of the survey area: some anomalies have been highlighted, however, an archaeological interpretation remains tentative.",N 618,"A magnetometer survey was conducted at Callestick Veor, Cornwall, in response to a request from the Cornwall Archaeological Unit to investigate archaeological activity in the vicinity of the known 'round' enclosure at the site. The specific aim of the survey was to provide a broader context for the limited geophysical survey and excavation results obtained from the W of the monument prior to the construction of the Engelly to Sevenstonemile section of the Cornwall Spine Water Main. Despite the interference caused by the presence of the water pipeline a wealth of significant magnetic anomalies were revealed. Whilst the majority of these anomalies are associated with the 'round' enclosure there is tentative evidence for the presence of further Bronze Age dwellings.",N 619,"The resistance survey at Area 1 (MVW) has located a broad zone of high resistance which may reflect the limits of the mounded areas, although the presence of past excavation trenches cast some doubt on such an interpretation. The extended survey in Area 2 (MVE) has located further anomalies suggestive of the limits of mounds and the tops of possible mounds. In addition, the continuation of an in-filled ditch identified in the previous survey has been detected. The difference in character between the two data-sets is attributed primarily to the increased density of excavation trenches at MVW, which will have disturbed/destroyed any archaeological deposits present.",N 620,"The resistivity survey has been partially succesful in establishing some structural elements within the interior of the castle. These remains are largely confined to the south western area of the bailey. Although there is circumstantial evidence at the site to indicate a division within the bailey, no wall or definite ditch has been identified. A series of linear anomalies, mainly located in the northern part of the bailey, are thought to be due to service pipes and subsurface variations caused by landscaping. Some indications of recent garden features have also been noted",N 621,"A limited resistivity survey on the East Lawn at Michelham Priory appears to reveal areas of archaeological activity on or close to the line of the eastern cloistral range of the monastic house. The survey, which incorporated the already known east end of the monastic church, also suggests that possible structural features abutting the church to the south paralling those already known on the northern side of the east end. Within the confines of the church as laid out on the ground, two discrete zones of higher and lower resistance readings can be detected. Without excavation, however, it is impossible to explain why these areas should occur, but conjecturallly they might be associated with demolition material or in situ flooring. A linear feature running across the choir between two known buttresses and forming the boundary between the two areas of differing resistance might represent the east end of a first/second phase church which has subsequently been elongated. Parallels for such expansion are common to many other monastic sites in England, however, prior to this survey, the church at Michelham Priory was thought to be of one period. This recent resistivity survey might have provided the first real evidence of a hitherto unknown redesigning and rebuilding of the monastic church.",N 630,"The objective of finding the fourth side of the ditch and bank enclosure was not achieved. However, a number of other features were detected.",Y 631,"The magnetism of the soil was weak, and few significant anomalies were detected. The area around the previous find-spots highlighted isolated pits but no clearly associated enclosure features.",Y 632,"A magnetometer survey was conducted at Cansford Quarry, Otterham, Cornwall, in response to a request from the Inspector of Ancient Monuments to investigate archaeological activity in the vicinity of three Bronze Age Barrows. Topographic anomalies over the site suggested the possibility of three additional monuments, but the survey failed to reveal any significant magnetic response to these areas. A pattern of intense linear anomalies dominated much of the survey area and is attributed to either a recent agricultural effect or to natural geological variation.",N 633,"The extent of the investigation was limited to the main open areas of the garden, though these included trees, shrubs and flower beds that have produced variations in the recorded response. However, several linear anomalies have been detected that are of archaeological interest. In particular, a substantial drain, or possibly a wall, has been recorded running along the southern edge of the survey area between a pond and the present house. This feature may relate to a water cistern located at the front of the house.",N 634,The geophysical survey over areas of archaeological potential at Easingwold produced a few anomalies of interest.,Y 635,"The objective of establishing that there had been a building on the site was partly met, in that a large area of positive anomalies was identified in that part of the field where pottery sherds had been discovered. However, further work would be required to determine the possible shape of the occupied area.",Y 636,The survey has shown that there was probably a building present in the area surveyed.,Y 637,"Magnetometer survey was carried out in order to examine in more detail evidence for a suspected archaeological site initially detected as a series of circular cropmarks on aerial photographs in a field overlooking the Camel Estuary near Lelissick, Cornwall. The survey revealed a dense pattern of single and multiple circular, semi-circular and sub-circular anomalies running in a broad band north-south through the middle of the field. Linear ditch-type anomalies were located between the cliff-edge and the main concentration of circles. It is not possible from the survey evidence alone to determine the precise nature of the circular anomalies, but if they represent the remains of a settlement, perhaps as many as individual dwellings could be present in the area surveyed.",N 638,"A number of geophysical techniques were used over two areas at Wroxeter as part of a student field class run by the Dept. of Earth Sciences at Keele University. The report contains three student reports covering the results obtained from GPR, seismic refraction and fluxgate gradiometer techniques over a possible courtyarded building, as well as traverses over the town ramparts.",Y 639,"A shallow geophysical investigation of the Wroxeter Archaeological site was carried out by a group of final year students. Two gridded areas were set up at the site, one inside the fortress area and the other over the ramparts. Each instrument covered the same lines. and the results were compared. The most striking results to be detected by the equipment were two pipes running across the area. Other features identified were the walls and floor of a church and the internal structures within the ramparts.",Y 640,"Magnetic surveys at the site of the proposed quarry have identified numerous anomalies which in places are difficult to interpret. Some of the areas are affected by drainage features, though it is thought that the destruction of any archaeological features may not be total. Elsewhere, archaeological-type responses have been identified and broad, though not exact, agreement has been recorded with the aerial photographic evidence. It should be noted, however, that given the small areas of the samples investigated, it is possible that natural magnetic changes in the soils could account for some of the observed responses.",N 641,"A resistivity survey was conducted in April 1997 of a 70 x 100m area over and around the mound identified as the site of the Frampton Roman building.

Notable anomalies were detected in areas 1, 2, and 3a.",Y 612,"The report details three geophysical surveys conducted near Stafford: Stafford Castle, a possible deserted village at Whitgreave and a suggested Roman marching camp at Aston-By-Stone. At Stafford Castle the resistivity survey revealed a possible boundary bank and ditch of the adjacent medieval village, and a number of other high and low resistance anomalies. At Whitgreave, both the magnetometer and resistivity surveys appear to have delineated features of possible archaeological interest. At Aston-By-Stone both the magentometer and resistivity surveys have picked up the line of the camp ditch, as well a number of other anomalies.",Y 643,"A magnetometer survey of 2.4 hectares of land within the scheduled site of a probable Roman villa has identified an extensive complex of ditches delineating enclosures, boundaries, and possible structures. A Romano-British date for this complex is suggested as the alignment matches that of known Romano-British features located immediately south of the survey area.",N 644,"A geophysical investigation of the site of the annexe of the Roman fort at Great Chesterford has clearly identified its perimeter defences. there are indications that the annexe formed an integral part of a large fort rather than an extension of the main body. No structures were identified within the annexe, however a circular anomaly was located outside which may indicate the presence of a ring ditch.",N 645,"Magnetometer and resistance surveys were carried out at the site of the deserted medieval village of Thomley, Oxon in February 1997. They were conducted as a pilot investigation to assess the efficacy of these techniques in detecting any surviving buried remains at the site. In general, the site conditions did not prove well suited to geophysical survey, although some useful evidence of buried archaeological features was recorded.",N 646,"The report contains the results of the archaeological fieldwork done as part of the South Cadbury Environs Project during 1996, and includes reports of gradiometer surveys carried out over longer periods at three locations within the study region. Evidence of buried archaeological features were detected at all three sites.",Y 647,"The features identfied by the gradiometer survey and their layout would not be inconsistent with lead smelting. However, with the lack of any valid comparisons at other sites, a conclusive interpretation was not possible.",Y 648,"The gradiometer and resistance surveys successfully recorded a complex of probable building remains and land divisions in the northern of the two fields. A network of linear anomalies, sharing a similar alignment, appears to relate to the earthwork complex and is presumed to be associated with the DMV. A second group of more ephemeral responses was also recorded that may also relate to the former medieval village. However, their orientatation is different and the possibilty that they indicate earlier occupation cannot be dismissed. Survey in the southern field recorded a number of archaeological type responses, though the results suggest that the remains may be less substantial than those identified to the north. Magnetic anmalies indicating remains of occupation were detected in the western corner of the field. Elsewhere, the site is generally magnetically quiet. Anomalies recorded by resistance survey tend to reflect topographic variations in the earthworks and outlines of possible building remains are tentative. A series of linear anomalies appears to be associated with the moated site immediately to the south of the survey area.",N 649,"This reports all the archaeological fieldwork, conducted as part of the South Cadbury Environs Project, for 1996. It includes short reports on the geophysics surveys carried out at Home Ground, Milsom's Corner and Sigwells, with magnetometer plots of earlier surveys included.",Y 650,"The survey has identified a complex of anomalies of archaeological interest. Many of the responses are presumed to be associated with later houses and remarkably clear plans have been obtained of some of the formal gardens. However, the results do not necessarily tie-in with the early maps. Unfortunatly, the anomalies due to the later features, and the disturbances caused by elements of the golf course, tend to obscure any results that may be linked to the monastic remains. Despite these complications, it is possible to identify some anomalies that could be interpreted as being monastic in origin. However, the interpretation is far from clear and further survey may be in order to answer many of the unsolved questions.",N 651,"A geophysical survey was carried out at the site of a Roman temple near Wanborough in Surrey in an attempt to establish the extent of the remains and its potential for scheduling. Whilst magnetic survey was unsuccesful, resistivity survey detected a number of anomalies of possible Roman origin in the field to the south of the temple remains. Whilst most of these cannot be interpreted unambiguously, a trackway was detected describing the shape of an arc, a small part of which had previously been excavated in 1985.",N 654,"A complex of irregularly shaped ditches were located, marking the western limit of the site. The anomalies correspond with the AP evidence to the north, but there are discrepancies to the south.",Y 655,"A geophysical survey was conducted at Boden Vean, St Anthony Meneage, Cornwall, over the site of a buried chamber thought to be the remains of a souterrain or fogou. A combination of geophysical techniques was successfully applied including an experimental microgravity survey over the location of the buried chamber itself. Magnetometer survey revealed a complex palimpset of archaeological activity extending throughout the surrounding landscape, centred on a regular ditched enclosure containing the fogou. A series of gravity anomalies were recorded in the vicinity of the latter which were consistent with the collapsed section of the feature recorded by the Cornish Archaeological Unit. Further gravity anomalies suggested the prescence of additional void features, possibly related to the extended passages of the fogou.",N 656,"Both resistivity and magnetic techniques were employed for the survey. Strong differentials existed between the natural substrate and the archaeological features.

There are also anomalies which possibly indicate the presence of external passages, the remains of a monastic enclosure or garden feature, a series of pillar bases and archaeological ditches. The presence of discrete anomalies located in the area of the cemetery may indicate the presence of additional graves.",N 659,"Magnetically noisy, but several possible archaeological anomalies were identified. Detailed survey confirmed the disturbed nature of the site, and recorded a number of pit like anomalies, a kiln/hearth type response and a ditch anomaly.",Y 660,The scanning did not locate any anomalies of definite archaeological interest although areas of sloghtly increased background noise were observed. The detailed survey results indicate a general increase in the level of responses in the south of the field. It is likely that this increase and other isolated anomalies are due to variations in the magnetic content of the gravels. No archaeological type anomalies have been located.,N 661,"The gradiometer survey located two or three discrete area of magnetic noise and a few other anomalies of potential archaeological interest. The resistance survey, which was initially targeted on the main area of magnetic noise, identified a very clear plan of a villa building, and when the survey was expanded several other archaeological features were also observed.

Tomographic imaging suggests that this extends to a depth of about 3.5m The tomographic section shows the outer ditch to be a low resistance zone almost directly adjacent to the curtain wall. Rubble appears to descend into the ditch to a depth of about 2m, and a surface layer of stone rubble, about 1m thick, extends east from a point 7m from the wall Weak linear magnetic anomlies in the north of the study area suggest structures built against the inner face of the curtain wall.",Y 440,"Geophysical mapping provides evidence that a walled annexe extends west of the fort. The defensive ditches north of the fort continue around the NW angle, but cannnot be traced along the full length of the west wall.

No further evidence for a more complex series of defences beyond the Porta Decumana has been added to that already expressed topographically.",N 666,"The two electrical resistivity tomography sections indicate three distinct layers down to 12m depth, the deepest almost certainly representing bedrock. One of the sections exhibited a strong correspondence between layer geometry and surface topography implying that at least two ditches are preserved adjacent to the NW angle.",Y 667,A geophysical survey of the proposed carpark has found no evidence for archaeological features in the area. No field drains or other services were detected by the survey. It would appear that the underlying rockhead has been scoured by ploughing and is nearest the surface immediately east of the infilled pond.,N 668,"The rough terrain caused by recent ploughing seriously affected the quality of geophysical data resulting from this survey. Anomalies due to the underlying archaeology are very weak but a linear ditch has been tentatively identified in the southern part of the site. Several zones of very high geomagnetic field gradient suggest that brick kilns are present in the adjoining field within 30m of the eastern boundary.",N 669,"Geomagnetic and electrical resistivity anomalies arising from the subsoil were found to be very weak with the former being dominated by pathways, iron contamination and deep hollows.

However, subsequent trial trenching failed to locate any archaeological features corresponding to any of the geophysical anomalies detected within the interior of enclosure",Y 676,"The magnetometer survey has succeeded in pinpointing several likely kilns and produced remarkably clear evidence for a major complex of archaeological features. The likely limits of the site have also been suggested, though the south-western boundary is more subjective. It should be noted that, by its nature scanning is less informative than detailed work and as such it is possible that isolated kilns, away from the main complex of remains, may be missed.",N 677,"The results of the gradiometer survey suggest that although remains exist within the survey, they are restricted to the area immediately adjacent to the excavated features. While there were no anomalies that would equate with further burnt or fired features, the strength of the one clear archaeological anomaly suggests that the fill of the ditch could be associated with such activities. It is unclear if the located remains actually form part or an enclosure surrounding the site.",N 678,"The gradiometer survey has identified a complex of archaeological type features. The results indicate probable limits to the activity on the northern, western, and eastern sides, but not necessarily on the southern. However, within the apparent core of the site there is no evidence for areas of magnetic noise that are typically asociated with building remains. The resistance survey therefore was targeted over the documented position of the Roman building. While the results confirm the presence of probable building foundations, they are approximately 25m north of their OS position. Unfortunately there is no clear plan of any wall lines though the building appears to measure 18m by 11m. It is believed that heavy ploughing may have damaged the remains and that this accounts for the lack of any magnetic responses associated with the 'building'. In a similar way such damage would account for the lack of definition of any wall lines.",N 679,"Archaeologically the results are disappointing: as consequence of more ecent activity at the site the survey is dominated by numerous errous type responses which have severely hindered an archaeological interpretation. In many places the disturbance is of such a magnitude that it will have completely masked any weaker responses from archaeological features, if preent. A few isolated trends have been noted, which might be of interest; though given the noise levels in the data, this interpretation is highly inconclusive.",N 680,"The geophysical data collected at this site suggest that considerable archaeological information remains buried within the survey area. The gradiometer survey has revealed a series of ditches that is aligned NS and EW. A concentration of other anomalies indicates considerable occupation near to the present churchyard wall.

Elsewhere in the field are a few other probable pits, a ditch, and linear trends in the data which suggest the presence of ridge and furrow. Whilst it is possible that past ploughing is masking buried features, on the evidence of the geophysics results there do not appear to be any great archaeological concentrarions. Areas of disturbance in the field are thought to be modern but this interpretation should perhaps be checked in case there are small scale industrial deposits unrelated to the prehistoric features.",N 682,"The gradiometer survey has identified several pit and ditch like responses, although it is very difficult to assess the potential archaeological significance of the results. Magnetic susceptibility levels across the site are low, the strength of many magnetic anomalies is also low, and there is a lack of coherency to the results. In such circumstances, whilst it is possible to conclude that there appears to be a lack of major areas of intensive habitation that have been magnetically enhanced, it is likely that more ephemeral archaeological features may not have been identified, should they exist.",N 683,"The results of the gradiometer survey show large areas of magnetic disturbance due to the presence of access roads, buildings, and fences adjacent to the survey area. In addition, the courses of three service pipes were recorded that further complicated interpretation of the data.

Despite this several archaeological type responses were detected, though it is possible that many have been produced by garden features.",N 684,"The site was found to be subject to severe magnetic disturbance from a number of sources, which will have masked anomalies produced by archaeological remains. Although some interference was expected, it was hoped that features producing strong responses and linear anomalies might be recognisable in the results. However no responses suggesting the presence of archaeological features were observed in the data.",N 685,"The survey recorded a number of ditch length and pit type anomalies, although no obvious pattern emerges to indicate a settlement site. Large parts of the survey area were found to be affected by magnetic interference that has complicated interpretation of the data. The remains of ridge and furrow features were detected in the eastern half of the survey. The results suggest that possible archaeological features may have been damaged or destroyed by this method of cultivation. The ridge and furrow terminates in the west at a broad ditch type response, which is the most convincing archaeological type anomaly detected by the survey.",N 686,"The survey successfully located the course of the Roman Road in the western part of the application area. In addition, the remains of industrial and/or intensive occupation activity assumed to be associated with the road have been detected.

Elsewhere the gradiometer recorded anomalies produced by ridge and furrow cultivation. No clear evidence of archaeological remains relating to these features or possibly underlying them was detected.",N 687,"Background noise has hindered full interpretation of the results. A group of strong responses in Area A may reflect building remains, and, as such, could be archaeologically significant, though this interpretaton is by no means conclusive. Isolated weak pit and ditch type anomalies in Area A may be archaeological, but again, this interpretation is tentative. No apparent anomalies of archaeological interest were visible above the noise in Area B.",N 688,"The results mainly reflect a pattern of variations produced by earthworks and the tree stumps of the former orchard, which complicated interpretation. However the remains of one possible building have been successfully recorded.",N 689,"The gradiometer survey results are very difficult to interpret due to the presence throughout the area investigated of modern disturbances.

There is no clear evidence in the data for the cropmark features. Although a number of ditch and pit type anomalies have been highlighted, the responses are very weak, with some barely discernible above background levels. consequently, an archaaeological interpretation remains tentative.",N 713,"The results of the gradiometer survey indicate a high level of magnetic disturbance across the site. This is due in part to structures surrounding the application area and ferrous material in the topsoil. Although some coherent anomalies have been noted towards the centre of the survey area, it is most likely that they indicate modern material that has been deposited on the site. However a natural origin cannot be ruled out. No anomalies of archaeological have been noted within the survey area, although they may have been masked by stronger non archaeological responses.",N 714,"The scanning located a number of anomalies of archaeological potential which were then subjected to detailed gradiometer survey. This detailed survey located a concentration of anomalies largely at the southern and eastern extremes of the field. While it is believed that the majority of the areas of archaeological interest have been located, some features may lie outside the detailed survey blocks. Many of the TT features were not observed in the gradiometer data. This may be the result of plough damage to the features, variable topsoil thickness or errors in the interpretation of the photographs. Of those anomalies located using the gradiometer, it is uncertain if they relate to a single phase of occupation or indicate a long term use of the landscape.",N 715,"Some possible ditch and pit type responses were recorded by the detailed survey, but their nature and weak strength suggest agricultural trends.",N 716,"Initial scan recorded archaeological type responses in several areas across the application area. Detailed survey identified three areas of possible archaeological activity, comprising groups of pit anomalies,short ditch lengths and kiln type anomalies. The results suggest intensive industrial activity though a modern origin cannot be ignored.",Y 717,"An initial investigation with the gradiometer in scanning mode found dense archaeological type anomalies within the Laude-Preston section of the pipeline route. Elsewhere, scanning identified occasional isolated pit type anomalies. Detailed survey was undertaken in eight locations, Areas A to H, along the pipeline route and recorded potential archaeological remains in seven of these areas. Survey within Area D detected responses indicating the presence of an enclosure and settlement features amid a comlex of overlapping ditch anomalies. Strong anomalies from ridge and furrow cultivation features were also encountered within most of the detailed survey areas. These anomalies may have obscured weaker archaeological type responses and complicated interpretation of the data.",N 720,"No clear geophysical evidence was found for archaeological structures on the moated platform, other than a series of weak resistivity anomalies. Anomalies in field A may reflect a buried field system or floodplain deposits, and side ditches to a causeway were located in the northern part of the field. Strong, negative geomagnetic anomalies in field B suggests that a stone building stands on the platform recorded in the YAT earthwork survey.",Y 722,The results of these surveys has produced no evidence for substantial buried structures beneath either of the two areas surveyed.,Y 723,"Several anomalies relating to modern features such as iron pipes, inspection covers and scattered debris were apparent in the geophysical data. However, no evidence for archaeological features was found in the study area.",Y 724,"Geophysical survey shows that the study area contains two ditched enclosures, one of approximately 0.2ha. A set of linear boundary ditches was detected, one of which is approximately 101m in length. Evidence was found for several ring ditches.",N 725,"A number of ditches of archaeological interest were detected by the survey. One of the ditches, crossing three of the survey transects, appears to be a field boundary.",Y 726,The GPR survey did not succeed in identifying any culverts within the application area. This would tend to suggest that either the culverts do not exist within the application area or the clayey nature of the substrata has attenuatted the signal to such an extent that it could not penetrate to the depths of the intended targets.,N 727,"Rapid scanning with the gradiometer demonstrated the site was found to be magnetically disturbed with many responses being due to modern ferrous debris being detected. However a few anomalies of archaeological potential were detected during the scan and marked for further investigation. During detailed survey, some anomalies of archaeological interest were identified. However given the background levels of noise the interpretation of all these anomalies is tentative.",N 728,"An initial scan of the application area identified a number of potential archaelogical responses. The detailed survey recorded a complex of archaeological type responses, mainly confined to the eastern half of the application area. They comprise numerous pit and ditch type responses indicating an area of intensive occupation activity, bounded to the north by a curvilinear ditch. Several of the magnetic responses are negative and suggest that stone remains; i.e. walls and metalled surfaces may be present. However, modern field drains may account for the negative linear trends. Elsewhere, short linear responses and several pit anomalies were detected, indicating that archaeological remains are likely to be present throughout the application area.",N 729,"The geophysical work has met with some success in identifying anomalies of possible archaeological interest. The clearest archaeological anomalies come from area 10, which is situated to the north-west of Saucebridge Farm. Elsewhere, some of the scanned anomalies were found to be due to ridge and furrow and other archaeological practices, while a number of likely geological/pedalogical features have been identified.",N 730,The gradiometer survey has successfully detected the extension of the ditch although the anomaly does not close to form a henge. It is possible that the northern limit of the possible enclosure has been ploughed out.,N 731,Evidence of structural remains were recovered. The complexity of the site and clear survival of minor elements of structural remains have raised some significant questions. There are strong indications that the survey has revealed underlying structures in addition to those related to the known manor house.,Y 732,Initial scanning found scatters of ferrous debris and occasional isolated pit responses. Detailed survey was carried out at three locations. The results indicated natural variations in one instance and tentative archaeological type anomalies in the other two.,Y 733,The initial magnetic susceptibility survey located several regions with areas of potentially significant enhahcement. Scanning was carried out in two of these regions thought to contain Roman and Medieval occupation features but no archaeological responses were observed in either location. The gradiometer survey located few responses originating from archaeological features. The part of the site adjacent to the Medieval hamlet produced a cluster of archaeological type responses that may relate to former settlement.,Y 735,"The data from the gradiometer survey reveal a wealth of archaeological remains with no limits of the site being evident within the area being investigated. However, the responses towards the centre of the survey are noticably stronger suggesting a core habitation area, or possibly a longer period of settlement. It is also possible that the strong responses indicate an 'industrial' zone. Also in the south of the survey several magnetic anomalies indicative of building remains have been located. Numerous pits and ditches have been located with many of the latter forming enclosures. However, the strong nature of the responses and the quantity of anomalies makes precise interpretation of possible individual features extremely difficult. However, the results clearly indicate a habitation area. The resistance survey has identified several possible Roman streets, particularly in the south of the survey area. One clearly defined building has been located in the south of the survey area. Other areas of high resistance, which may be archaeologically significant have also been noted.",N 736,"A relatively strong linear anomaly, aligned approximately northwest-southeast has been located in the west of the survey. There is evidence for a second linear anomaly giving the appearance of a double ditch type feature. Towards the centre of the anomaly the response is significantly stronger, suggesting possible localised industrial/domestic material within the ditch fill. There is an indication of a smaller enclosure in the east. Several weak linear anomalies and pits have also been detected in the west of the survey and may be of archaeological interest. The variation in the strength of anomalies suggests a core area of habitation with the responses getting weaker as one gets further away. Although suggestions of several linear anomalies have been noted, their weak nature makes interpretation tentative and it is not clear if the limits of the settlement have been established.",N 737,"Scanning located several anomalies of archaeological interest. However the high level of ferrous noise and possible agricultural effects made it difficult to determine the nature of the anomalies. Detailed gradiometry indicated a relatively high background noise. This is most likely a combination of past agricultural use and modern debris accumulated recently under 'set- aside'. Several weak anomalies have been detected. Many of these may be the result of past agricultural processes, but some of the linear responses suggest enclosures and may be archaeologically significant, although such an interpretation is tentative. Several pit type responses have also been located. Although it is possible that some of these responses are archaeological, the high level of background noise casts some doubt on such an interpretation.",Y 738,"The gradiometer survey has clearly located the system of streets suggested by the limited excavation and numerous ditches and pits have also been located. The wealth of anomalies makes precise interpretation of individual resonses difficult. the size and nature of the graves limits their detection by the method, although grave goods may be suggested by a concentration of individual iron spikes. The resistance survey has not detected any anomalies clearly suggestive of building remains although several small discrete high resistance anomalies may be significant. Some of the streets show clearly as high resistance anomalies within the data set.",Y 739,"Gradiometer survey carried out over the majority of the abbey site found a high level of background noise. Although some of the noise is due to ferrous debris in the topsoil the majority was thought to be archaeological in origin. The lack of clarity in the results is probably due to disturbance of deposits by stone robbing. Several areas of increased magnetic activity were observed that are characteristic of responses from building remains. Resistance survey was targeted on areas of potential building remains identified by the gradiometry. The recorded variations in resistance were considered to reflect mainly topographic changes and disturbance caused by stone quarrying. Areas of high resistance are thought to represent spreads of rubble associated with former buildings. Although no clear plans are visible in the results, the remains of two or three possible buildings were identified.",N 740,"Two positive anomalies, roughly square of sides 35m and 12m respectively, were recognised in the survey. Neither were well-developed enough to unambiguously interpret as the mile turret, although the features may have some archaeological significance.",Y 741,"The most obvious anomalies recorded in the present survey are those produced by modern features such as paths and pipes. Several linear and pit type anomalies were recorded which form an inherent part of apparant field systems. Three survey areas, Samples 19, 22, and 26, exhibit some anomalies of significantly higher magnitude than those detected elsewhere and are therefore of greater archaeological potential.",N 742,"The data sets collected during this survey are relatively noisy. The most obvious anomalies are due to modern features, although some of archaeological potential are apparent. The most convincing of the latter are linear anomalies that appear to form part of a field system. This interpretation is consistent with data gathered in the previous survey.",N 743,"Gradiometer coverage detected the outlines of buildings which correlated well with previous surveys over the area. Resistivity and conductivity surveys detected the same outlines but not as clearly defined. Depth sounding proved to be a useful tool, but the seismics survey was not able to pick out the fine structures in the archaeology. Radar was unsuccessful due to a too low frequency for the target.",Y 744,"A number of probable structures were identified by the radar survey. The demolished walls of the crypt were clearly demonstrated, and evidence for buttresses on the south side of the chapel was obtained. Other features appear to be part of the drainage systems with the exception of a possible hard surface such as a road or forcourt at the eastern end ot the chapel.",Y 745,The 1997 geophysical surveys in Rievaulx village have only given minimal assistance in interpreting the water regime and the site of the blast furnace. A failure of the magnetomery equipment during the survey period meant that some of the survey could only be done using resistivity.,Y 747,The geophysical survey has provided some evidence of stoney areas or structures on the moated platform. The geophysical expression of the moat reflects the topography.,Y 748,"Geomagnetic anomalies arising form the subsoil were found to be strong whereas the resistiviy response to buried features was poor owing to the heavy rain which preceded the survey. Also an extensive zone of iron-contaminated ground covered the northern boundary of the site. The SW third of the site is characterised by a network of linear and curving, positive anomalies whose form is consistent with a system of silted diches, perhaps related to enclosed fields and house plots in the Medieval hamlet of Claxton. Several of the ditches traverse in a NE-SW direction towards the nearby Medieval Moated Site SM12601, raising the possibility that these were once drainage ditches and feeders to the moat.",Y 749,"Geomagnetic anomalies within most of the study area were moderate, reflecting a low magnetic susceptibility contrast in the subsoil. A chain of magnetic dipoles was detected along the edge of the mound suggesting a fenceline or slag dumping. Three compact zones of strong magnetism were detected. These are interpreted as being the possible sites of evaporating hearths, One such feature coincided with the summit of the mound.",N 750,"The geophysical survey has confirmed the presence of the rectangular ditched enclosure seen on the air photographs, but with an entrance on the western side. A number of further ditches of possible archaeological interest have also been located.",Y 751,"The results show a number of anomalies that are archaeological in nature. They may represent stone buildings and yards / paved areas within the castle bailey. However, it is possible that some of the responses are associated with former garden features.",N 753,"Geomagnetic anomalies arising from the subsoil were found to be extremely weak in the study area and difficult to detect against background noise. The survey provides evidence that the old Lambrook ran parallel to the Avon beneath the rugby pitch furthest from the club house. Beneath the pitches a known sewer and drains were also detected. North of Lambridge House, the geophysical data indicates possible terracing and a rectangular enclosure that may reflect agricultural activity of recent or Iron Age/Romano-British date.",N 754,"Many of the anomalies detected by the survey appear to represent modern features such as iron pipes, drains and manhole covers. However, a number of anomalies were considered to be of archaeological interest including several sinuous, positive magnetic anomalies that may represent ditches, and a pattern of geomagnetic lineations which provide evidence for ridge and furrow over much of the site.",Y 755,"Although no Roman structures were detected, the geophysical mapping provides evidence for a number of prehistoric ring ditches and other archaeological features in the study area.",Y 756,"The gradiometer survey has clearly located a ditch type anomaly confirming the presence of a long barrow. There are suggestions of other isolated responses that may be of archaeogica interest. There is also an extremely weak suggestion of a curvilinear anomaly. While this may be archaeologically significant, such an interpretation is tentative.",N 757,"The survey has revealed conclusive evidence for a buried structure that can be interpreted as a Romano-British villa. The buildings revealed by the resistance technique are also evident in the gradiometry data, where areas of increased noise correlate with the structure. Additionally an 'L' shaped corridor of gradiometer response partially coincides with the structure. The magnetic susceptibility data generally indicate a moderately high level of enhancement over the villa site, which is in contrast to the results from Charlton. The villa buildings cover an area approximately 35 x 20m in extent.",N 758,"Although localised natural factors have complicated the archaeological interpretation, the survey has identified high resistance anomalies suggestive of chapel remains/foundations. The responses indicate a rectangular structure, approximately 15m by 5m, aligned east-west and with a single central central partition. The feature lies within the uncultivated platform. Several other high resistance anomalies show hints of linearity which may support an archaeological interpretation, although natural or modern origins cannot be ruled out.",N 759,"The remains of a small sub-rectangular enclosure, have been identified, and there is some evidence for pits in and outside of it. An area of high resistance in the NW corner of the enclosure may indicate a rubble spread. Although confirming the presence of archaeological deposits, no villa was found.",N 760,"The gradiometer results clearly show that the widespread nature of settlement indicated by the previous geophysical work is repeated throughout the two areas of the present survey. A number of enclosures, ditch systems and associated settlement have been recorded in addition to areas of probable industrial activity. Since the data can now be incorporated into large display blocks it is possible to see for the first time the range and varying density of archaeological features over a substantial part of the hillfort's interior.",N 761,"No clear features were detected with the resistance technique. However, increased levels of GPR responses were detected in areas of high resistance. The clearest GPR responses of archaeological potential were recorded in lines 1, 3, 5, 16, and at the eastern ends of lines 27 to 31, especially in the 900MHz data. It is suggested that the outline of the C19 stable, a floored area in the SE corner and a C20 drain have been located in the survey area. Data collection was complicated by the clayey nature of the soil and an electrical transformer unit situated in the corner of the survey area. Results from the excavation, located within the survey area, were available after completion of the geophysical data interpretation. A comparison between the geophysical results and the excavation is detailed in Appendix A.",N 762,"The results from the resistance survey appear to suggest that there is little evidence for any substantial stone building foundations surviving in the field investigated. However one possible point of concern about this conclusion relates to the poor moisture contrasts at the site. Despite recent rainfall, extended drought conditions over this summer are still lowering ground water levels, and these may have idversely affected the quality ot the results. It is thought that a lack of moisture in the soil might result in a loss of definition of say, wall lines, but that areas of high resistance would still reflect former buildings. On this basis one or two areas of anomalous readings might be interpreted as being archaeologically significant.",N 763,Due to disturbance the gradiometer failed to detect any archaeological anomalies.,Y 764,"The resistance survey successfully located the remains of the Roman villa. Several possible ditch type anomalies were also recorded. Two groups of parallel trends in the data indicate that field drains and remnants of ridge and furrow cultivation are also present. The gradiometer survey recorded a complex of overlapping ditch type anomalies extending throughout the survey area. Many of these responses are intermittent in nature due to disturbance by later field drains and possibly damage by ploughing. Consequently, a clear pattern of the archaeological type responses has not been obtained. However, parts of two enclosures and a ring ditch may have been identified.",N 765,Fluxgate gradiometer survey within the enclosure did not detect any clearly defined anomalies nor any sign of the postulated internal earthwork recorded during RCHME earthwork survey.,Y 766,"Survey at Sutton Common Henge revealed possible entrances not located by earthwork survey. Very few anomalies were detected at Grovely Castle. Survey at Parsonage Down recorded anomalies representing substantial internal pits, as well as external ditches respecting the monument.

In addition, a number of other linear responses and possible pit anomalies have been recorded, although their interpretation is more tentative.

This disturbance has complicated interpretation and may have masked responses from archaeological features producing weaker anomalies.",N 772,"The areas investigated with the gradiometer were found to be affected by magnetic disturbance due to responses from ferrous debris, electricity pylons and service pipes. However, anomalies thought to be of archaeological significance were detected across the site. The results seem to indicate a series of linear ditches possibly forming enclosures and a trackway, but interpretation remains tentative due to the poor definition of the anomalies.",N 773,"The gradiometer has identified a series of anomalies that are likely to be of archaeological interest. The anomalies appear to represent linear ditch features as well as possible pit type anomalies. However, it is noted that the linear anomalies do not correlate very well with the known cropmarks and that the pit anomalies may be due to natural variations in the subsoil. Some of the poor correlation between the cropmarks and the magnetic data may be the product of errors in the plotting of the aerial information.",N 774,"Scanning with the gradiometer indicated a generally quiet field, apart from apparently isolated anomalous readings and a few poorly defined linear ones. Subsequent detailed work over some of the anomalies identified during scanning confirmed the presence of old field boundaries, past ploughing lines, and a few ferrous type resonses. Some of the latter are thought to be associated with recent test pits, or perhaps boreholes. There is no magnetic evidence for major archaeological features at the site.",N 775,"In general, the results were dominated by modern ferrous debris and anomalies associated with topsoil removal.

The resistance survey has identified former land divisions along Duck Street and an area of high resistance responses in the north/northwest, which may indicate building remains are surviving south of the present stream.",N 819,Both the resistivity and magnetometer surveys were able to locate the known round barrow and its ring ditch. Nothing else of archaeological potential was identified other than a modern service trench.,Y 820,The area suitable for survey was reduced to twenty percent of the proposed survey area due to the presence of tall hogweed and an area of trees in the centre of the site which was cordoned off by a wire fence. The interpretation of the data are difficult due to the small size of the area surveyed and from the interference from ferrous objects. The majority of the response noted in the data are attributed to ferrous debris. One area of possible archaeological significance is tentatively noted.,N 821,"The geophysical survey has identified a complex of archaeological type responses. They appear to consist of a series of enclosures, trackways, pits and associated features; all the evidence indicates muti-period activity, though it is not possible to suggest any dates for the differing responses. The possibility exists that there is an enclosed burial / cremation cemetery though this interpretation must remain tentative pending further archaeological investigation. There are several anomalies which are difficult to interpret; archaeological, geological or more recent explanations could equally apply. On the basis of the gradiometer results major archaeological features appear to be concentrated in the central core of the survey area; by comparison the eastern half appears to be relatively devoid of archaeological type anomalies.",N 822,The data set is relatively noisy suggesting a large amount of modern ferrous material in the topsoil. Although a few tentative pit type anomalies have been noted it seems likely that these are the product of more deeply buried ferrous material. No anomalies of clearly archaeological interest have been located.,N 823,"The geophysical survey has helped to answer some of the archaeological questions: although Langtoft Hall has not been pinpointed, several probable garden-type features have been identified and the dovecote has also been located. The resiults further suggest that the moat ditch originally crossed the northern area and there may have been a break or entrance. There are several other anomalies of potential archaeological interest in the data, but interpretation of all the results is complecated due to modern disturbances throughout the survey area.",N 824,"Although a few possible pit type anomalies have been located at Site 1, most of the responses appear to be of an agricultural/natural origin. In the south of the survey at Site 2 several ditch and pit type anomalies have been detected.",N 825,"The survey located a number of magnetically weak linear responses, confined mainly to the northwestern part of the survey. Two of these may relate to archaeological features identified during trial excavations. Some linear anomalies of possible archaeological interest appear as negative responses. However these are unusual in that positively enhanced fills would normally be expected within areas comprising chalk geology. The results are disappointing when compared to those recorded in the Great Woodbury survey, which investigated mainly an Iron Age comlex.",N 826,The survey work has positively identified the round barrow Avebury G29a. A number of vague linear features were identified which may correspond to old field boundaries. A possible ring ditch identified on aerial photographs to the south of the barrow was not located.,Y 827,"The results of the survey reveal generally low levels of magnetic response. A few ditch and pit type anomalies were detected, but the poor definition of these responses makes an archaeological interpretation tentative.",N 828,The gradiometer survey has identified a few anomalies of archaeological interest and these are largely associated with low earthworks in the NW corner of the proposed development. The scan suggested few other significant anomalies within the rest of the proposed development area. This was confirmed by detailed survey.,N 829,"An extensive region of the site was found to be affected by severe magnetic disturbance, originating from a number of modern sources. This interference will have masked anomalies produced by archaeological remains if any survive within this region. Despite the disturbance, it was hoped that feaures producing strong responses, such as hearths or kilns, and ditch type anomalies might be recognisable in the results. However, no responses suggesting the presence of archaeological features were observed in the data.",N 830,"Results are dominated by responses from ferrous material of presumed modern origin. However, some anomalies of archaeological potential have been recorded but their interpretation remains uncertain.",N 831,Some of the scanned area was found to be magnetically confused due to the presence of modern buildings and fence lines. However part of the open sace was free of strong ferrous type anomalies and contained apparently more subtle responses. The interpretation of the detailed survey suggests that the majority of the anomalies are likely to be modern or natural. Despite these factors a few anomalies of potential archaeological interest have been noted and include possible kiln targets.,N 832,"The majority of the survey areas have produced very few anomalies of archaeological interest. Most of the data sets are dominated by ferrous responses, which are predominantly the result of buried pipes and other modern ferrous material. While it is possible that some of the ferrous responses are associated with brick debris, no kilns have been identified.",N 833,"The nature and form of the anomalies noted within the data sets collected at the five sites are similar to those found in earlier surveys along the proposed route of the A1(M). In the majority of cases the results suggest small individual features, although some of them may be non archaeological in origin. Area 11/12 contains a discrete zone of archaeological type anomalies at the northern end of the survey.",N 834,"A geophysical survey was carried out over the site of Ellerton Priory, Humberside, following a request from the Carstairs Countryside Trust. Further to a previous survey in 1995, the aims were to obtain a fuller picture of the extent of the Priory remains. It was found that extensive archaeological remains, which may include hearths and minor industrial activity, are present in the area.",N 835,Geomagnetic survey of three transects at the site detected a pattern of magnetic anomalies of likely geological origin. The survey has also detected two positive anomalies which possibly represent the truncated remains of enclosure ditches. A weak geophysical texture with East- West orientation was setected in much of the study area and may be due to medieval cultivation.,Y 836,"A geophysical survey over 4 hectares of land to the south west of the Late Iron Age/Roman settlement at Elms Farm has located anomalies characteristic of archaeological features including ditches, pits, possible trackways and structures. It is clear from the survey results that the settlement extended into the survey areas and are likely to have continued beyond.",N 837,A number of anomalies of archaeological interest detected along the proposed road corridor. See individual site comments for a summary of the results at each site.,N 838,Scanning suggested the area was magnetically quiet. Strong responses were detected by the scanning in a strip running north south in the western third of the area. To the west of this strip the area was more magnetically responsive than east of the strip. A few possible archaeological type responses were detected during the scanning. Six areas were established for detailed survey as a result of the scanning. Detailed survey confirmed the strong responses to be a linear feature continuous across the whole area and defined a few ditch and pit type anomalies.,N 839,"The gradiometer survey has located a series of rectilinear ditches indicative of field systems and enclosures. Ridge and furrow, on the same alignment as the rectilinear ditches, occurs at the eastern end of the survey srea. Throughout are anomalies which suggest large pits, although the interpretation of some of these anomalies in the western half of the survey area is tentative as the data incorporates strong ploughing trends.",Y 840,The survey indicated that the site was quiet with only a few anomalies of archaeological interest detected. These responses are all ephemeral and thus an archaeological interpretation remains tentative.,N 841,The survey indicated that the site was magnetically quiet with only a few tentative anomalies of archaeological interest detected. None of these apparently coincide with the AP evidence. It is likely that the presence of alluvial overburden at the site has significantly contributed to the poor responses noted in the survey,N 842,The interpretation of the survey results has indicated a number of anomalies of potential archaeological interest. In particular there is a concentration of discrete anomalies within the southern corner of the survey grid. While these anomalies may indicate the presence of pit-type features it must be stressed that a natural origin may account for their presence.,N 843,"The gradiometer survey has successfully pinpointed the location of the two most complete barrow ditches and it is possible to identify the position of the third feature, though without the evidence of the APs it is possible that this would not have been recognised. In addition, two linear features have been identified crossing the survey area and there are a few other anomalies of potential archaeological interest. Unfortunately the low level of magnetic response makes archaeological interpretation very difficult. Resistivity survey proved unsuccessful due to the very dry nature of the ground at the time of the survey.",N 844,"Approximately 75% of the application area was unsuitable for survey because of trees, dense vegetation and the limited size of some of the fields. The remaining area was investigated using gradiometry and found to be magnetically noisy due to the presence of greenhouses, bonfires and modern ferrous debris in the topsoil. Several known land drains have been clearly detected. No anomalies of archaeological potential were located by the gradiometer survey.",N 845,"The existing factory, fencing and other ferrous debris has caused areas of magnetic disturbance along the edge of the survey area. No clearly defined archaeological anomalies have been located. Although a few pit type responses have been noted on the interpretation plan, it seems likely that these are of modern origin.",N 846,"The gradiometer results are dominated by several linear responses which appear to represent land drains or pipes leading to the sewerage work adjacent to the survey area. Some of the postulted land drains show as linear high resistance anomalies. The main response in the resistance data is a marked increase to the east which is believed to be geological and coincides with a slight break in slope.",N 847,"The survey has detected three chains of magnetic dipoles, all of which reflect the presence of ferrous or fired materials, comprising the rubble which was used to backfill dykes that once crossed the area. None of the anomalies appear to reflect features of archaeological interest.",N 849,"The survey reults have proved difficult to interpret because of generally high background levels of magnetic noise in each survey area. While some of the results could be interpreted as being of archaeological potential, the anomalies are generally poorly defined and lack any particular shape or form. However the survey may help in targeting the position of evaluation trenches and if these prove that archaeological features are present, it should be possible to reinterpret the magnetic results in a more positive way. At present apart from the AP evidence which was not confirmed by geaphysics, the gradiometer results suggest an absence of archaeological features within the areas investigated.",N 850,"Four areas of geomagnetic survey carried out near Old Farm, East Cowton. The main features detected comprise a rectangular network of soil-filled ditches which probably relate to a Medieval farming regime. A number of walls and stone trackways have also been mapped geophysically as linear, negative magnetic anomalies parallel and adjacent to the field ditches. The presence of an intense magnetic dipole in one of the areas may reflect the existence of a buried iron object , or possibly a kiln.",Y 851,"A fluxgate gradiometer survey near Cleveland Cottage Hospital, Brotton has detected few anomalies of archaeological interest, except a pattern of magnetic lineations providing evidence for the remains of Medieval ridge and furrow.",Y 853,"It has not been possible to locate any divisions between burbage plots east of Sherwood Lodge. A set of high resistivity anomalies clearly define part of a rectangular building with divisions and a possible doorway. The survey provides good evidence for a bank and terminals on the axis of the Town Entrenchment north of the Technical Services Building. No evidence was found, however, for gate structures.",N 854,"Detailed fluxgate gradiometry, a resistance survey and ground penetrating radar profiles were carried out at the site of a possible Romano-British Settlement by students from the University of Liverpool. The gradiometry identified a series of ditched enclosures. a Roman road and areas of increased activity. Resistivity was less successful but found areas of higher and lower anomalies. GPR failed to detect the Roman road ditches.",Y 1130,"This report describes the technique and methodology used in a geophysical survey of St Mary's Church and churchyard, Southampton which was carried out during January 1998. It also presents the results of the analysis of the data collected and a number of conclusions based on that analysis.",Y 856,"The survey work suggested that there are substantial structural remains existing beneath the surface which appear to be closely associated with the precinct wall. However, results from the two different areas surveyed in 1997, particularly the magnetometer data , suggest different types of activity at different locations along the wall.",Y 857,"The survey has detected what appears to be a network of tile drains traversing the study area, and a number of possible ditch type features.",Y 858,"The gradiometer survey recorded a number of pit and intermittent ditch type anomalies. There is no pattern in the results to indicate that these responses are due to the presence of archaeological features relating to an enclosure. The undulating ground surface, possible soil variations, ferrous disturbance or agricultural practises may account for some of the anomalies detected by the gradiometer. Consequently, the significance of the archaeological type responses will remain uncertain without further investigation.",N 859,"A few anomalies of archaeological potential have been identified by the gradiometer survey .These would appear to consist of isolated pits and a possible hearth type feature. However the responses are poorly defined and many are at the soil noise level. Given that variations in the magnetic composition of sands and gravels can produce similar anomalies, it is very difficult to assess whether they are archaeologically significant. The gradiometer survey will assist in targetting any trial excavation trenches and defining areas for close investigation during any watching brief.",N 860,"The survey recorded clusters of pit responses, which were confined to the northeastern part of the survey, that may relate to former settlement. However, the broad appearance of the anomalies and a lack of archaeological context suggest that they may be due to geological effects. Subsequent trial excavations carried out by BUFAU have revealed that the anomalies were produced by pockets of soils filling natural hollows in the underlying bedrock. Given that geological changes were recorded by the gradiometer, it would be expected that the more enhanced fills generally associated with archaeological features would have also been detected, if they were present in the survey area.",N 861," A previous geophysical survey within Chapel Field was centred over a building of approximately 34ft by 31ft orientated NE-SW, which was discovered by excavation in 1893 (SMR No 00062). The gradiometer survey located a discrete area of strong magnetic responses associated with the building. The resistance survey failed to locate any clear suggestion of buildings, although conditions were not conducive at the time for resistance survey. Recent excavations over the magnetic responses confirmed the presence of a Roman villa and bathhouse (R.White pers. comm.) which extend beyond the northwest corner of the previous survey area. A second survey area in Weir Meadow failed to locate any anomalies of archaeological interest.",N 862,"The survey has detected a number of ditch and pit type anomalies which may be of archaeological interest. The results are broadly comparable with those of the previous geophysical survey (ibid) in that many of the responses are poorly defined, making the archaeological interpretation tentative.",N 863,Survey provided little apparent archaeological information.,N 864,"The survey recorded a strong ferrous response following the line of a linear cropmark. Subsequent trial excavations reorded the presence of a trackway. It is likely that the feature is of recent origin and is associated with past coal mining to the north of the site. Two other linear anomalies were detected within the survey area, though both are thought to have been produced by modern drainage features.",N 865,The data indicate that the curving ditch does not extend much beyond the excavated limit. While a series of low level anomalies can be seen in the data it is uncertain if it relates to archaeological features. It is suggested that the faint trends in the data set are likely to be the result of natural variations in the subsoil.,N 866,"A group of magnetically very strong responses were detected in the eastern corner of the survey, which suggest the presence of a possible corn dryer or malting kiln. However a modern origin for these anomalies cannot be ruled out. A number of parallel linear responses detected toward the northern part of the survey area may be archaeologically significant, suggesting the presence of buried ditches. However these anomalies may be due to the effects of recent agricultural processes and/or field drainage.",N 867,"The gradiometer survey in Chapel Field has located a discrete area of strong magnetic anomalies in the northwest corner, suggesting fired or burnt material. It seems likely that these responses are associated with the presumed bathhouse, although the resistance survey has failed to locate any clear suggestion of buildings.

An area of low resistance at the east end of the site.",Y 873,"Geomagnetic anomalies arising from the subsoil were found to be very weak but provide data relating to the archaeological potential of the study areas. The presence in Area B of a N-S trending ditch is confirmed and this appears to be associated with more extensive negative features. The geophysical mapping provides evidence for ring ditches and linear or curvilinear ditches of possible prehistoric date in areas A and B, and possibly C. a stone building, measuring 25x6m , appears to be present in area B.

Further cropmark features of probable early prehistoric date known within this field include two ring ditches and apparently a third much larger ring, identified as a possible 'henge' monument. Weak but reasonably clear images were obtained by gradiometer survey including not only the known Neolithic enclosure but also a number of previously unknown linear and curvilinear features, together with several apparent pit forms. Although the approximate locations of two of the cropmark rings previously identified from air photographs were included, neither was detected during the present survey. A total area of 3.3 ha was investigated. Artefactual material (worked flint) was observed on the field surface during the course of the survey.",N 876,The geophysical survey has found a number of linear features which are thought to be filled ditches or hollow-ways. In addition there are several discrete anomalies which have been interpreted as landscaping features. No evidence for structural remains has been found.,N 877,"The most archaeologically significant results were found in the area to the west of the intermittent hedge, which bisects the platform, where the level of disturbance seems to be greater than that exhibited in the east. The form of this disturbance is very poorly defined with no clear indication of regular features. The disturbance could be a direct result of levelling and clearance of the platform following its abandonment.",Y 878,"Both magnetometry and resistivity survey techniques have responded well and the results demonstrate that the techniques can contribute significantly to subsurface mapping of archaeological features at this site. There are clear variations in the magnetic and resistance responses across the site associated with both occupation features (pits, ditches, midden deposits and burnt or fired remains) and tentatively with burials (ferrous grave goods).",N 879,"The resistance survey revealed a network of responses suggesting the presence of possible buildings, walls and/or pathways extending throughout the entire survey area. However, the complexity of the results made archaeological interpreatation dificult.",N 880,"The gradiometer survey recorded substantial areas of magnetic disturbance, particularly to the north of the house. The interference, which was generated by a number of sources, will have hidden the smaller scale responses from archaeological features, if any are present in these areas.

Two sample areas (B and C), positioned to trace the course of the Roman Road, failed to conclusively detect the feature, though responses from possible metalling were identified in Area C. A linear response consistent with a field drain was recorded in Area D. Several weak linear trends were identified though these do not coincide with an enclosure identified on aerial photographs.

Magnetic survey produced patterning of some archaeological significance. The principal area of interest appears to lie within and in proximity to an area associated with a surface debris scatter and topsoil magnetic susceptibility enhancement. The general patterning of the linears and grouping of other features identified by gradiometer survey suggests a pattern of enclosures and just possibly structural elements, associated with pitforms and one possible burnt feature, although it should be stressed that smaller 'cut' features such as postholes timber slots etc. are not likely to have been detected by gradiometer survey at this location, and that the levels of topsoil magnetic susceptibility are conducive to locating only more substantial cut features containing fills with relatively enhanced susceptibility, particularly larger cut features located close to areas of occupation or industrial activity.",N 894,"A resistance survey covering an area of 2.2ha was carried out at the site of St. Johns Priory, Pontefract.

Despite this it was thought possible that archaeological features producing strong responses and linear anomalies might be detectable in the results.

In Area A the gradiometer survey has indicated clear evidence for the aerial photographic interpretation, with part of an enclosure being detected.

There were few other responses that could be confidently interpreted as being of archaeological potential. Sample areas of magnetic survey detected ferrous anomalies produced by service pipes, cabling and scatters of modern debris. No anomalies of possible archaeological interest were recorded. A noticeable lack of response to surface variations, such as drains and earthworks, suggested that soil conditions were not favourable for the use of gradiometry.",N 921,Archaeological type responses were located in all 4 survey areas. They comprise mainly short ditch type anomalies or pit responses. The most pronising was recorded in Area A where the corner of an enclosure may have been detected. However the extent of the survey areas were limited and the presence of anomalies produced by agricultural processes complicated interpretation. As a result it has not been possible to place the majority of thr archaeological type responses into a wider context.,N 922,"The microgravity survey has defined the position and extent of three probable tunnels within the northern half of Area A. Variations in Bouguer anomalies across Area A have been attributed to previous land use and the thickness of overburden. Within Area B, two weak linear trends have been noted. Although they are not believed to be the result of tunnels, one does run parallel to a tunnel known to lie beneath the porta-cabins on the eastern side of Area B.",N 923,"Any possible results masked by ferrous debris, brick and cinders. A soil survey by augering identified the moat, and found it to be backfilled with the same debris.",N 924,"The survey has identified a complex of anomalies many of which are due to modern disturbances. Other responses correspond with paths/tracks visible on Ordnance Survey maps. In such circumstances, and given the small area available for survey , it is difficult to identify anomalies of potential archaeological significance. One or two features have been highlighted that may relate to earlier wall foundations; some responses may reflect former elements of the gardens.",N 925,"The results of the initial gradiometer scan are consistent with those of the LUAU study. The majority of Fields 1 and 4 were found to be magnetically disturbed and difficult to assess due to a dense scatter of ferrous debris. Scanning within Fields 2 and 3 produced few potential archaeological type responses and most were isolated and considered ferrous in origin. Field 5 contained several archaeologically significant anomalies and some may relate to features associated with monastic occupation. Detailed gradiometer survey confirmed the magnetically disturbed nature of the field adjacent to the house. No clear archaeological responses, other than a drain, are identifiable in the results within this area. Survey in the southeastern corner of Field 2 identified remains of possible industrial activity. A group of weak responses was recorded toward the eastern corner of the same field, lying on the summit of a low hill, that may indicate former settlement. Resistance survey identified possible building remains, garden features and a drain in the southern corner of the Field 1. A former road or trackway may have been identified in Field 2. Beside this feature a structure has been identified that coincides with possible industrial activity identified by gradiometer survey. The course of a stone lined drain was also identified in Field 2.",N 928,"The main anomalies recorded at the site of the New House were produced by the extant remains of the former building. There are suggestions of walls along the eastern boundary of the survey area, but the interpretation is uncertain here. The results suggest that the intervening space was open. A more complex arrangement of poorly defined anomalies was detected within the outer bailey. They may represent a combination of features from the medieval period, the civil war and later gardens. The possibility that medieval remains have been detected cannot be dismissed. The effect that clearance, landscaping and excavations have had on the archaeology of both these areas is unknown. Survey to the east of the tithe barn has revealed a complex of enclosures and possible buildings that appear to relate to both the Tudor farm and to the 17th century house.",N 929,"The gradiometer survey has identified a few pit like responses and short lengths of ditch, which may be associated with the DMV. However, the anomalies are not particularly well defined, and there is a lack of conformity that could have allowed a more precise interpretation. There are several strong ferrous type anomalies which in the context of a DMV might be significant, however, given the modern disturbances at the site a modern origin is also possible. The survey should help target areas for any further archaeological investigation.",N 930,The MS data indicate generally low levels of enhancement. The gradiometer survey located few responses of archaeological potential especially along the proposed road corridor. There were a few more responses of potential interest in the development areas alongside Stane Street.,Y 931,"Gradiometry recorded a few weak linear trends and three ditch type responses. They may be associated with Roman activity recorded in the area. Resistivity recorded several linear anomalies which may relate to Roman activity. MS results show various agricultural uses of the land along the corridor. A cluster of high readings in Area I may be of interest.",Y 933,"A geophysical evaluation programme comprising magnetometer survey was carried out along a the route of a proposed SWW pipeline extending from the North Cornwall coast just southwest of Cataclews Point to the outskirts of Padstow (from NGR 186885 075750 to 191124 074685). The pipeline crosses an area of considerable archaeological potential, particularly in the Harlyn area, where an important and extensive later prehistoric (Iron Age) cemetery was found at the turn of the century within what is now the core of the modern village; a further Iron Age burial site is known from Trevone. At the northwestern termination of the pipeline (lying beyond the survey area) a number of relatively well preserved Bronze Age barrows are extant upon the cliff top; further burials and finds have been exposed by coastal erosion in the Harlyn - Trevone area. Little archaeological information was available for the remainder of the pipeline route. The magnetic response proved excellent, and closely gridded detailed magnetometry at 0.5 m traverse intervals (4 readings per metre) carried out within a 15 m wide corridor for almost the entire 4.5 km long pipeline route (excluding only the built-up areas) revealed an extremely high density of archaeological features including previously unknown prehistoric and possibly later archaeological sites. Amongst the features recognised are ring ditches, concentric rings, enclosures, numerous pits and areas of sand-inundated ridge and furrow cultivation. The survey provided sufficient advance information to enable the local re-routing of the pipeline, avoiding destruction of the most important sites.",N 935,"Geomagnetic anomalies in the study area were moderate. The geophysical survey has confirmed the survival of Medieval ridge and furrow which appears to be confined to an area south of St Michael's Church. No headlands or field boundaries were detected. Two ditches or a possible trackways were detected, one of which appears to continue as a break in the ridge and furrow. Tentative evidence was discovered for three possible quadrilateral ditched enclosures of maximum diameter 7m. A number of pits appear to have been detected.",Y 937,"Geomagnetic and resistivity anomalies were found to be strong, however, ferrous debris and disturbance caused by a mechanical excavator, have affected the geophysical data. The resistivity survey has detected a pattern of intersecting, high resistance lineations which may represent the wall footings of a small building, and also several diffuse zones of high resistivity. Only two geophysical anomalies could be linked to features recorded in the trial trenches.",N 938,"The magnetometer survey in the study area RPS21 detected good evidence for a linear ditch with a right angle turn near the northern limit of the area. Further possible ditches were also detected. No coherent pattern that might highlight areas of archaeological potential, could be extracted from the magnetic susceptibility data within the proposed road improvement corridor.",Y 932,"The aim of the Wessex Bowl Barrow Project, funded by English Heritage, is to investigate the state of preservation of plough-damaged Bronze Age barrows to inform future policy for their conservation. As a preliminary step, routine geophysical survey was undertaken over a sample of 9 sites in order to provide evidence of the survival and location of archaeological features. Only one barrow-like feature was successfully located, at Site 5. Other anomalies of interest included one generated by a square-shaped feature at Site 1, and a large amorphous anomaly at Site 10. Neither are likely to be barrows. Various other minor features of possible archaeological origin were found at several of the sites. The lack of positive geophysical identification of barrows is unlikely to be due to geological conditions: either they have been totally eliminated from the landscape by cultivation or the original locational information was in error.",N 939,"Geomagnetic anomalies were found to be weak in all the areas except that immediately to the east of Annigate Farm. Evidence of ridge and furrow was detected in six of the seven areas, and ditches, of uncertain function, were tentatively located in blocks B and E.",Y 940,"Despite heavy rain and an abundance of ferrous litter, both the resistivity and geomagnetic surveys have detected numerous anomalies of archaeological interest. These include evidence for a substantial building in the SE quadrent of the Friarage Field, a complex pattern of ditches on the Town Moor, and a possible buried stream immediately north of the Tennis Courts. The magnetometer survey also detected numerous iron pipes traversing the Town Moor.",Y 941,"The geophysical survey provides good evidence that a network of ditches, of uncertain date, survives in the central part of the study area. Several features that could be interpreted as stoney trackways or field banks have been detected.",Y 942,"The geomagnetic survey data has provided excellent evidence that networks of enclosure ditches, presumably of prehistoric date. survive in both areas, and their degree of preservation appears to be good. Several ring ditches were also detected by the survey providing further indications of prehistoric settlement in the study areas.",N 943,The magnetometer survey detected several geomagnetic lineations north and west of the excavation which are thought to provide evidence for further archaeological ditches.,Y 944,"The presence of a path inside the Nave, and gravestones in the churchyard prevented complete geophysical survey of the project areas. However, evidence was found for anomalous features beneath the Nave and the churchyard north of the church, which may represent undocumented graves. A band of increased resistance south of the Nave and Chancel was thought to be a either a gravel path or construction debris.",Y 945,"Both the survey areas were characterised by a low scatter of ferrous litter. Three diffuse positive magnetic anomalies were detected near the southern limit of BA3 which may represent sites of former brickpits. A strong positive anomaly 3-4m in diameter was detected near the northern limit of the BA3 survey.",Y 946,No anomalies were detected by the geomagnetic survey that might represent archaeological features. A weak linear positive magnetic anomaly corresponded to a shallow drainage ditch visible on the ground.,Y 949,"An electrical resistivity survey was carried out on two study areas of proposed development land west of Tadcaster Road in York. Although a number of zones of high resistivity were encountered, all of these were thought to be of modern origin and could not be ascribed to any archaeological features.",Y 947,"High resolution geomagnetic and electrical resistivity surveys have been carried out over five parcels of land which lie west of the Abbey and north of the Banqueting Hall. Topographical surveys have been carried out in four of these areas. Possible garden features were detected by the resistivity survey in the southern part of Area A. A 20m diameter, arcuate anomaly in the southwestern part of Area A probably represents a ditch feature. With the exception of some smaller ditches in Areas A and B, and a probable path in Area E, all the other detected anomalies represent modern features.",N 948,"A high resolution electrical resistivity survey has been carried out over the Abbey Plain car park north of Whitby Abbey. Several features were detected by the survey, a number of which had not been detected in an earlier magnetic survey. Features detected include: the course of a former track, the remains of a building, an L-shaped wall foundation, a terrace bank, ridge and furrow and evidence for a buried floor surface.",Y 951,"Geophysical data was found to be noisey in both the areas surveyed, due to the substantial quantities of demolition debris on, or near, the ground surface. Several diffuse zones of low resistivity were detected in Area A and may reflect soil beds of the former market garden.",Y 953,"An electrical resistance survey carried out in the grounds of the Merchant Adventurers' Hall in York detected a number of anomalies. A possible wall or trackway was detected in the eastern corner of the area. An area of very high resistivity at the northern limit of the site probably indicates a stone feature, and an adjacent low resistivity anomaly, a buried hollow. A rectangular high resistivity anomaly to the west of the hall may reflect building material.",Y 950,"Geomagnetic surveys on the playing fields at Cadbury Ltd factory, Keynsham, were carried out prior to a possible redevelopment scheme. The only likely anomaly of archaeological potential was a linear positive in the northwest corner of Area 2 which may represent the remains of an enclosure ditch.",Y 952,"Geomagnetic surveys of seven areas between Sacombe and Buckney Wood have been carried out in order to locate buried archaeological features prior to a proposed pipelaying scheme. Several anomalies suggestive of silted ditches or geological features were located within Area C. A possible ditch or headland was detected within Area E,",Y 954,Geomagnetic survey was carried out at the Beeches Playing Field at Cirencester prior to a possible redevelopment scheme. A probable ditch was detected in the northwest corner of Area 1. About twenty parallel positive magentic anomalies crossing Area 1 have been interpreted as evidence of ridge and furrow.,Y 956,"Geomagnetic surveys were carried out at Barnaby Side Farm, Cleveland, in 1994 and 1995. The 1994 survey located an anomaly corresponding to a cropmark feature, and subsequently confirmed in excavation. Evidence for a poorly preserved bank and ditch surviving within and beneath the ploughsoil was detected by the 1995 survey as well as a number of weak anomalies which may reflect additional archaeological features.",Y 963,"Geomagnetic and electrical resistivity surveys were carried out on an area in Middle Rasen, Lincolnshire. The geomagnetic survey did not detect any archaeological features. The resistivity survey detected a possible ditch and pit in the survey area, and also detected anomalies that could be attributed to the pathway and former scout hut visible on the ground.",Y 955,"Geomagnetic surveys were carried out at Fishtoft, in Boston, Lincolnshire, prior to housing development. The results from the eastern part of the survey area were found to contain an irregular pattern of amorphous magnetic anomalies which were thought to be geological. Apart from a metal pipe, no geophysical anomalies of archaeological interest were found.",Y 957,"Two areas of geomagnetic survey were carried out at Ham Green Hospital near Bristol prior to construction works. No anomalies were detected that might have reflected the presence of medieval kilns in either of the areas. Evidence was found for the remains of ridge and furrow cultivation, and a large positive magnetic anomaly has been interpreted as modern building rubble. No other features of archaeological interest were detected.",Y 958,"A geomagnetic survey was carried out on land northeast of Argham Grange, North Humberside in advance of development. The survey appears to have detected the remains of ridge and furrow. Also, a rectangular geomagnetic anomaly has provided evidence for a small building in the NW corner of the study area.",Y 960,"A geomagnetic survey was carried out on land between Annie Reed Road and Groveshill Road in Beverley prior to proposed development. The survey has detected areas of localised intense magnetisation providing good evidence for fired structures such as pottery kilns and associated debris. The survey indicated that the structures are mainly arranged in clusters, although a number of isolated kilns have also been located. No evidence was found for ridge and furrow or a rectangular platform in the position suggested by the Technical Brief.",Y 962,"A programme of geomagnetic survey was carried out over an area of proposed development near Armthorpe village in South Yorkshire. A former landscape containing field systems, double-ditched trackways and small enclosures has been detected by the survey, and the remains of at least four such tracks have been mapped. The survey has identified many more subsoil archaeological features than were apparent from aerial photographs and has considerably extended the area within which such remains were thought to be present.",Y 972,"Geophysical survey was carried out at Sutton Scarsdale Hall as part of a research project. Resistivity survey of individual rooms within the Hall failed to provide any conclusive evidence for wall foundations or other features beneath the present floors. Geomagnetic survey of the field east and north of the Hall has yielded remarkable evidence for formal gardens which are presumed to have been associated with the Hall.",Y 809,"Resistivity anomalies within the Ingram Hill Settlement were found to be strong and in good agreement with visible features. Geomagnetic anomalies were surprisingly weak in view of the geological context, implying an alteration in magnetic mineralogy due to weathering. A weak, curvilinear, positive anomaly within the cropmark site near Ingram suggests that the mark is due to a ditch. The results of both pilot surveys have demonstrated that resistivity and geomagnetic surveying should prove useful in the further evaluation of archaeological landscapes in the area.",N 973,"Geophysical survey was carried out at Lanercost Priory to inform the preparation of an analytical record of the monastic remains, partly in the care of English Heritage. Resistivity survey was employed in four separate areas of the monastic precinct, and a more limited magnetometer survey was carried out over a test area to the east of the remains of the Chapter House. There are wide differences in the background resistance over the site and this undulating response probably reflects variability of the local drift geology (conditioned by the river valley location in a heavily glaciated zone of the country) rather than the presence of archaeological features (which would be expected to produce anomalies of a less irregular form). More promising indications of buried walls, flooring or rubble were found extending south from the east claustral range and the cellarium (with refectory over) on the south side of the Priory. These anomalies may represent missing buildings of the monastic layout such as the kitchens and latrines. In addition, various low resistance anomalies were mapped within the Outer Court area, some of which relate to modern paths, while others may represent archaeological features of uncertain form possibly associated with the medieval Priory. Sections of a possible boundary defining the limit of the monastic precinct have perhaps been detected as high and low resistance linear anomalies in the far western and eastern areas of the survey. The magnetometer data suggests the possible presence of small- scale industrial activity in the south-eastern area of the monastic precinct, although to what period this belongs is unknown.",N 980,"A geophysical survey was carried out over Court Farm, Wookey, Somerset, in order to help clarify the positions of documented medieval buildings and a moat. Magnetometer and resisitivity surveys revealed anomalies which strongly suggest the presence of buried archaeological features between the existing buildings and Lower River Axe, and also partially delineated the position of the former moat.",N 995,"The results are archaeologically disappointing, with no firm evidence for archaeological features apparent in the data. A few weak pit and ditch-type responses are highlighted but given the noise levels at the site, an archaeological interpretation for these anomalies remains highly tentative. A series of parallel linear anomalies are thought to reflect former agricultural activity, possibly ridge and furrow. The majority of the responses in the data are attributed to modern debris, both on the surface and scattered within the topsoil.",N 996,"The geophysical survey indicated that possible archaeological remains may be widespread at White Hall Farm. The results recorded evidence of features associated with the motte, while in other areas field systems and possible settlement activity were encountered. Field work at South Moor Lane and Fox Hills detected few anomalies considered to be of archaeological potential. Several ditch and pit responses were recorded, though their interpretation is in doubt. However, it is possible that a lack of contrast between the fills of the features and the soils into which they are cut may, to some extent be responsible for the negative results in some areas.",N 997,"The magnetic data are dominated by ferrous disturbance, which is likely to be modern in origin. However one possible ditch type anomaly was detected, though an archaeological interpretation remains tentative. The resistance survey contained a number of anomalies that may be archaeologically significant.",N 998,"Magnetometer surveys were carried out over two areas on Ecton Hill, Derbyshire, to find evidence of industrial activity associated with local Bronze Age copper mining. Although various anomalies were detected none of these can be conclusively linked with prehistoric ore extraction.",N 999,"Nunthorpe results disturbed by ridge and furrow. Likely to have obscured anomalies produced by archaeological remains. However several linear anomalies which may reprsent parts of a field system were recorded. The gradiometer was unable to detect the majority of the features which had produced the cropmarks at Fox Hills, with only one linear magnetic anomaly appearing to coincide with a cropmark. The results suggest a lack of magnetic enhancement of the soils within these features and that similar remains may not have been detected in the previous survey.",N 1000,"The gradiometer survey has provided clear evidence for both ditches of the cursus, although the presence of the triple ditch system remains uncertain. A number of other potential archaeological anomalies have been found. It is believed that some may relate to chalk quarrying, while others may have a natural origin.",N 1001,"The resistance survey detected several high resistance anomalies suggesting the remains of buried walls and rubble spreads. Some of these may relate to the buildings known to have been present in the last century. Possible buried walls have been identified in the southeastern corner of the survey area, where there is no evidence of buildings having been present. However, due to the proximity of some of these responses to the cliff edge, it is possible that topographic effects are present in the data. The gradiometer survey showed that the site contained a spread of ferrous objects, likely to be modern in origin. These items caused considerable magnetic disturbance that will have masked responses produced by archaeological features if any are present in this area.",N 1002,"The gradiometer survey found Area A to be magnetically quiet except for a discrete area of strong disturbance, likely to be modern in origin, coincident with a hollow in the earthwork complex. The resistance survey results follow the variations in the earthworks and the main components have been clearly defined. However a possible building was identified on an earthwork forming a raised platform. In general, the results indicate that the earthworks relate to the site of a former quarry which has been partially backfilled. Gradiometer survey in Area B identified the course of a ferrous pipe. No anomalies indicating the presence of archaeological remains were detected in this area.",N 1003,"The results of the gradiometer survey are difficult to interpret with any great degree of certainty. Several linear features have been recorded. However on the basis of available evidence, only one of these coincides with a cropmark feature. Many of the others would appear to be associated with drainage features. The remaining anomalies identified are poorly defined; they nay be associated with pit like features or other archaeological deposits, but a geological origin is also possible. In general, within the small samples surveyed, It is impossible to assess if the recorded anomalies represent extensive archaeological activity. Trial excavation of a sample of the anomalies would result in clearer interpretation of the geophysical results.",N 1007,"A geophysical evaluation programme was carried out on land southeast of Norton Big Wood, Norton Disney, Lincolnshire. The following features were identified: (a) recent pollution (from trackways and other consolidated ground); (b) post-Medieval field boundaries (now removed but mostly already known from historical maps); and (c) magnetically augmented geological features of Pleistocene origin. No material of archaeological significance was encountered, and it is concluded that magnetically enhanced sites (such as settlement sites) are absent. Any older (prehistoric) sites, representing only brief episodes of 'clean' activity, might not have been located by magnetic survey. No ancient topsoil debris or artefact scatters were noted at any point within the survey area",N 1009,"The limited resistance survey appears to have responded largely to the natural variation in the topsoil and only a few anomalies of potential were noted. By way of contrast, the gradiometer survey responded very closely to anthropogenic activity. the survey, over the area of approximately 6.5ha, has located pits, ditches, industrial activity, hearths, kilns/furnaces and enclosures. Many of the key elements of the interpretation were tested by excavation during the three days of the Time Team programme and were proved to be correct. The area to the east and south of the church was found to be particularly rich in anomalies, perhaps suggesting areas of industrial activity next to a former shoreline.",N 1010,"The gradiometer data indicate a very low level of responses with isolated ferrous anomalies. There are no clear concentrations of archaeological type anomalies, although one pit type anomaly of possible archaeological interest has been detected towards the centre of the survey area. The magnetic susceptibility survey also indicated very little variation.",N 1011,"The extension NW of a previous magnetometer survey has provided evidence for either a reduction in archaeological activity, or a poorer peservation of subsoil features. However evidence was found for a further two small enclosures and a number of ring cairns.",N 1012,"Geomagnetic anomalies within both sites at Northwick were found to be very weak and dominated by iron contamination, trenches and spoil heaps. The geophysical mapping provides tentative evidence for ditch segments in the eastern study area. However, in common with diffuse features detected in the western area, it is possible that these may instead reflect sedimentary structures in the underlying alluvium.",N 1013,"The geophysical survey results can be summarised as follows: 1. No geophysical features were found in association with the cropmarks at Site 7, however ,a small line of pits appears to have been detected. 2. Survey at Site 12 revealed a rich archaeological landscape containing rectangular ditched enclosures. linear ditches, a square building. fired strucures and a possible ring cairn. 3. No geophysical anomalies of archaeological interest were detected at Site 13.",Y 1014,"Magnetometer survey was carried out at three locations adjacent to the A46 between Newark and Widmerpool. The results were as follows: Site 1: The survey found no evidence for a cemetery. Two field boundary ditches were detected together with a dense network of field drains and an iron pipe. Site 2: No archaeological features were detected Site 3: The survey detected two elliptical features which possibly represent ring ditches. A significant fraction of the site appears to have been intensly disturbed by field drains",N 1015,No evidence was found for archaeological features in the conjectured area of the destroyed earthworks. There were some indications of curvilinear and rectilinear anomalies in the study area but these could not be interpreted as archaeological with any confidence.,Y 1016,"Geophysical evaluations were carried out on four areas along the proposed route of the A34 Newbury Bypass. The four sites - Enborne Street; Skinner's Green Lane; Elmore Plantation; and Hill's Pightle - were surveyed geomagnetically. No geophysical evidence was found for significant Romano-British or Medieval activity; the major features detected comprising a set of linear boundary ditches in the Enborne Street survey area, and lineations interpreted as geological in origin at Hill's Pightle.

Given the high level of noise, survey blocks were investigated with the aim of providing a good spatial sample of the area.",N 1021,"The gradiometer data from Site 1 have been severely distorted by modern distubance which will have masked any weaker archaeological responses. The data from Site 2 show an increase in resistance to the west, adjacent to the wall and the road. While this may be due to modern disturbance/compaction an archaeological origin cannot be ruled out.",N 1022,"In area A the gradiometer has identified an area of disturbance thought to be associated with the old excavations and also several anomalies that are indicative of kiln-like features. These appear to be confined to the central area of the survey block, though scanning indicated that other industrial type anomalies extend some 30m further east. In area B there is one anomaly that is characteristic of a kiln, though the presence of a water trough did hinder the survey. In both survey areas there are other anomalies of archaeological potential and scanning indicated several responses of interest in the remainder of the field.",N 1023,"The resistivity survey produced a ground plan of the church in sufficient detail to confirm the substantial accuracy of the published plan based on the 1922 excavations. These results will also allow the remains to be accurately relocated. The magnetometer survey contributed further information concerning the plan of the abbey, and located Iron Age and other remains in area C. The radar survey produced evidence for buildings and other features near the church, in addition to those detected by the resistivity survey. An initial version of this report was produced in June 1998. The current revised version contains additional plots of the radar survey as produced in time slicing. This technique allows readings from the original vertical profiles to be represented in plan form. The findings and conclusions from the survey remain substantially as previously stated.",N 1027,"A geophysical evaluation programme was carried out on land adjacent to and north of the existing Warren Villas Quarry. Several dispersed foci of possible archaeological significance were indicated by topsoil susceptibility mapping. Magnetometer (gradiometer) survey over these locations indicated the presence of magnetically weak underlying 'cut' features, and further weak anomalies, possibly of agricultural origin. Archaeological sites which represent only brief episodes of relatively 'clean' activity might not have been located by magnetic survey. A zone of alluvium was identified within the eastern third of the survey area. Topsoil magnetic susceptibility levels were generally lower than those previously encountered by OA (within the existing permitted area); the present magnetic survey indicates archaeological features, but does not suggest the presence of archaeological settlement horizons comparable with those located elsewhere within the quarry to the south and southeast.",N 1028,"A geophysical survey was carried out over the inner bailey area of Scarborough Castle, North Yorkshire. Both resistivity and magnetic methods yielded significant anomalies suggestive of buildings and other features, but the interpretation of these, and any specific internal patterning, is problematic.",N 1029,"A geophysical evaluation programme was carried out on land north of Witham Road, Woodhall Spa, designated as Phase 1 of the Woodhall Chase building development by Broadgate Builders (Spalding) Limited. The following features were identified: (a) patterns of enhancement derived from the modern (demolished) Witham Farm (b) post-Medieval field boundaries (now removed but mostly already known from historical maps); and (c) weak anomalies which might be of agricultural origin. Topsoil magnetic susceptibility levels were generally low. There was no magnetic evidence for substantial archaeological occupation horizons or major 'cut' features.

No ancient topsoil debris or artefact scatters were noted at any point within the survey area.",N 1030,"A geophysical programme was carried out on land situated 350 m east of the village of Wooperton, Northumberland, in advance of proposed sand and gravel working. Mapping of topsoil magnetic susceptibility provided evidence for possible traces of ancient field blocks, together with some indication of the location of more specific archaeological features.",N 1031,"A geophysical evaluation programme was carried out on land north of the present Hinxton Quarry, in advance of a proposed quarry extension. Mapping of topsoil magnetic susceptibility provided evidence for at least one focus of former settlement within one of the series of rectilinear cropmark enclosures which cross the southern third of the field. Further foci were detected beyond the known cropmarks. Despite the good topsoil magnetic susceptibility contrasts, the site responded poorly to gradiometer survey and underlying 'cut' features showed only weakly against a background of recent cultivation marks, suggesting that they were either relatively short-lived features into which little magnetically enhanced material had become incorporated, or were predominantly agricultural in origin. Some linears and pit forms located within a focus of topsoil magnetic enhancement in the vicinity of the excavated grubenhaus may be archaeologically significant. Archaeological sites which are represented by brief episodes of 'clean' activity, might not have been located by magnetic survey. Quantities of worked flint were observed within the survey area, but few other surface artefacts were noted.",N 1032,"Topsoil magnetic susceptibility was mapped at 10 m intervals across the whole of the survey area, and 22% of the total was investigated in detail by gradiometer survey. The survey has located and defined a substantial Romano-British settlement complex, the core of which covers over 1 ha. It contains a number of buildings; some structures having tiled roofs, plastered walls and mortared floors. Enclosure ditches, pits and trackways are also present, and there are indications, on morphological grounds, for the presence of possible prehistoric features. The majority of the archaeological features are concentrated around the focus of the Romano-British settlement area, and the preservation of the archaeological horizons and features appears to be generally good. Outlying elements of the wider Romano-British landscape are apparent from both the topsoil magnetic susceptibility.",N 1033,"Magnetometer (gradiometer) survey was carried out on part of a potential school site south of Lenthay Road, on the western outskirts of Sherborne, Dorset. The following features were identified: debris and the possible remains of a relatively recent structure incorporating brick and ferrous material; weak lineations indicative of the former arable landscape (predating the current agricultural alignments); and a suggestion of a curvilinear or possible ring form of unknown date and function, but potentially of archaeological interest. There was no further magnetic evidence for substantial archaeological occupation horizons or major 'cut' features.",N 1034,Follow-up magnetometry to Project 52 revealed no indications of substantial features or debris of obvious archaeological significance within any of the three survey strips.,N 1036,"A geophysical evaluation programme was carried out on land situated east of South Hall Farm, Rainham, London Borough of Havering, in advance of a tree planting programme prior to sand and gravel extraction. Mapping of topsoil magnetic susceptibility provided evidence for former patterns of landuse, both relatively recent (within the past 150 years) and older landscape elements of unknown date. Topsoil magnetic activity generally increases west of a line represented by NGR easting 553500, becoming strongest within the western angle of the survey area, where patterns of topsoil magnetic susceptibility suggest a former possible occupation site. East of NGR easting 553500, between the two modern farm tracks and the A13 road, the sand and gravel body lies closer to the surface, and truncation of archaeological features may have taken place. There are, however, no strong magnetic indications of any former occupation/industrial sites in this area. Alluvial soils are apparent to the south of the site, below approximately 2 m AOD. Of the few cropmark features observed within the site, one was located, one remains unconfirmed, and further features (not showing as cropmarks) were revealed, although it is felt that locally poor magnetic contrasts between 'clean' archaeological features and the substrate into which they have been cut may hinder detection by gradiometer survey alone. Numerous worked flints were observed within the topsoil together with occasional large roughly prepared flint nodules, representing raw material for flint implement manufacture.",N 1037,"A geophysical evaluation programme was carried out on land situated on either side of the M1, less than 1 km southeast of the village of Tibshelf, Derbyshire, in conjunction with a planning application for new motorway services. Mapping of topsoil magnetic susceptibility provided evidence for former patterns of landuse and magnetometry detailed a number of underlying 'cut' features, although the patterns suggest that the majority can be explained as elements relating to the relatively recent agricultural landscape. No surface material other than localised spreads of modern pottery sherds and relatively recent building debris were observed.",N 1038,"A geophysical survey was conducted over a site at Tewitfield, Lancashire, where finds of Viking hack silver had been found by metal detector. The aim was to determine whether there was any anomaly in the vicinity of the finds which might be related to them. Magnetometry, resistivity, magnetic susceptibility, vertical electrical sounding and ground probing radar methods were applied. A large elongated resistivity anomaly was located adjacent to the find positions, and estimated to extend to a depth of between 0.8m and 1.2m by the electrical pseudosection and GPR data. However, none of the methods could determine without doubt whether this or any other of the anomalies detected was of archaeological origin. Subsequent test excavation has indicated that the feature is natural in origin.",N 1039,"A geophysical evaluation programme was carried out on land situated at East Langdon Farm, Abbotsham, Devon, in advance of the proposed construction of Cornborough Sewage Treatment Works and associated pipelines.

Mapping of topsoil magnetic susceptibility provided evidence for probable former landuse patterns and indicated the broad trend of the geological substrate (sands & gravels with alluviated channels). In addition a number of distinct foci suggest areas of anthropogenic modification of the topsoil indicative of underlying archaeological activity (date unknown); this includes the known ring form and the strong focus of a former pond.

In addition, distinct foci suggesting specific areas of anthropogenic modification of the topsoil were identified, some were demonstrated by magnetometry (gradiometer survey) to represent the location of a number of ring ditches, probably the remains of Bronze Age barrows (three already known from cropmark evidence and one previously unknown example), together with a number of linear and curvilinear features, several pit forms and possible structure/s represented by magnetic disturbance consistent with buried building rubble. Several scatters of artefactual material were observed on the field surface during the course of the survey, consisting of prehistoric flint cores and flakes, together with some burnt flint. Field survey was also undertaken within an adjoining area of woodland, School Wood in order to identify topographic features of potential archaeological / landscape interest.

Detailed gridded magnetometer (gradiometer) survey confirmed the presence of numerous probable industrial features within these zones. A single auger hole into one of these intrusive features confirmed the presence of burnt clay and charcoal; the combined evidence of previous fieldwalking (?metalworking slag and pottery) with the geophysical survey indicates an ironworking site of possible Medieval date.

Magnetometer survey detected very few anomalies of archaeological potential. The most graphic elements can be explained as trackways incorporating rubble, or spreads of more magnetic material. Incorporated within the trackways and rubble spreads are quantities of ferrous debris which are most likely to associated with agricultural activity of post Medieval origin. There may be some significance in the 'pattern' of anomalies originating from debris within the topsoil lying north of the modern farmhouse, but again there is considerable input to the magnetometer plot from ferrous material.

Topsoil magnetic susceptibility mapping within four 100 m wide transects (totalling 11.9 ha), combined with magnetometer scanning and selective detailed gradiometer survey (1.9 ha) produced very little magnetic evidence for archaeologically significant activity with the exception of one location of potential interest and several dispersed pits; otherwise the survey revealed patterns consistent with former ridge and furrow cultivation and the modern agricultural landscape.",N 1092,"Geophysical survey, comprising both topsoil magnetic susceptibility mapping and magnetometer survey, was carried out on the gravel terrace just above the floodplain of the River Trent close to its confluence with the River Derwent, on the eastern outskirts of the village of Shardlow, Derbyshire in advance of a proposed quarry extension. The present survey was commissioned to determine the extent and geometry of subsurface features detected during previous selective geophysical work, which have been demonstrated by trial trenching (by Trent & Peak Archaeological Trust) to represent a late prehistoric and Romano-British settlement site. The results of previous geophysical studies (Projects 79 & 93) have been integrated to aid interpretation. A total area of 5.2 ha has now been investigated by magnetic survey. Further magnetic information was obtained relating to the known Romano-British site. In addition, a further dense area of magnetic anomalies covering much of the northern third of the site was revealed, within which formal elements probably indicative of substantial structural remains was recognised. There is some magnetic evidence to suggest burning episodes, and plausibly some industrial activity associated with this area. There are indications that plough disturbance within this area is minimal, and that good levels of preservation of archaeological horizons may be expected. A series of anomalies which may represent a system of water management was located between the known Romano-British site and the adjacent watercourse (the Cow Way Drain) to the south. Magnetic survey has also proved effective in determining the course of palaeochannels and zones of alluvium. The magnetic response suggests that locally high levels of organic material may survive within deeper-cut features.",N 1093,"Magnetometer survey was carried out on land adjacent to Weymouth Sports Ground in advance of a proposed all-weather hockey pitch. Magnetometer survey detected a number of features, some of which had been partly revealed in evaluation trenches by AC archaeology, and shown to be part of a Romano-British occupation site. The survey provided information relating to the likely focus and geometry of the Romano-British site, and confirmed the relatively 'quiet' nature of a further area lying beyond (to the north) of the location of the evaluation trenches.

Gradiometer survey recorded some 'ridge and furrow'- like patterning and a number of weak lineations of probable agricultural origin.",N 1095,"A geophysical evaluation programme comprising topsoil magnetic susceptibility mapping and gradiometer survey was carried out within a c.2 ha pasture field bounded on three sides by Straightway Head Big Wood, adjacent to the route (north side) of the A30 Honiton to Exeter Improvement , within the parish of Whimple, Devon. The survey revealed subtle patterns of contrasting magnetic soils suggesting agricultural incorporation or dispersal of material of locally higher magnetic susceptibility. Within one area of significant patterning these soils were found to overlie deposits of clays showing markedly higher magnetic susceptibility than the local soils and subsoils (evidence from hand augering). Magnetometer (gradiometer) survey showed that these deposits form a series of diffuse linears and hollows. Although their general appearance suggests a natural (geological) origin, the regularity of some of the elements cannot entirely discount the presence of features of anthropogenic origin.",N 1096,"Magnetometer survey was carried out on the playing field at Dorchester Middle School, Queens Avenue, Dorchester, Dorset in advance of a proposed extension. Magnetometer survey provided evidence for a number of intrusive linear and curvilinear features. Although the majority are insubstantial and are probably of agricultural origin, at least one ditch of potential archaeological significance was located which apparently relates to a group of features, known from aerial photography, limited archaeological excavation, and geophysical survey, to the southwest of the survey area. Further features with some possible archaeological potential include a group of weak curvilinear anomalies, together with what appears to be a broad oval (probably shallow) depression; a further linear was recorded close to the perimeter fence at a location in which a parchmark has been noted.

A 23.6 ha topsoil magnetic susceptibility survey (10 m grid) was followed by magnetometer scanning and 3 ha of detailed magnetometry. Much of the topsoil magnetic patterning can be attributed to agricultural activity.

The second phase of survey work has extended the total area investigated by magnetometry to 8.2 ha (55 % of the total application area). The extended survey has allowed a broader understanding of the dynamics of the topsoil magnetic susceptibility patterns, and has identified a series of features relating to earlier landscape organisation.

Additional survey work to the north, south and east of the original survey area revealed a further extensive series of enclosures, together with linear and curvilinear features, pits, and several rectilinear hollows identical with examples located previously and interpreted as sunken floored buildings, and similar in shape and form to those excavated in the adjacent field to the north. The site can be confirmed as a substantial Romano-British settlement. The relationship between the enclosures and the road which forms the eastern boundary of the survey area (believed to follow the line of the Roman road from Dover to Richborough) is uncertain; the layout of the enclosures is aligned with a trackway crossing the western part of the survey area, at 45 degrees to the presumed course of the Roman road.

Strong anthropogenic modification was evident, displaying patterning of recently removed hedge banks and numerous strong foci. High susceptibility and good substrate contrasts produced graphic magnetometer (gradiometer) plots (with anomalies locally exceeding 20 nT), and a number of features of archaeological potential were recorded, including a small ring form, a substantial pit, several smaller pits, and weaker linear and curvilinear features.",N 1104,"A geophysical evaluation programme comprising topsoil magnetic susceptibility mapping and gradiometer survey was carried out on 16.25 ha area of farmland on either side of the M4 Motorway, c.6 km southwest of Maidenhead, Berkshire (centred on NGR 485700 175700) in advance of a proposed Motorway Service Area. Neither 10 m topsoil magnetic susceptibility survey nor detailed gridded magnetometer (gradiometer) survey produced any evidence for substantial archaeological features. The topsoil magnetic susceptibility map reflects patterns of agricultural organisation associated with former (recently removed) hedgerows. Gradiometer survey detailed a few possible isolated pits or hollows (not necessarily of archaeological significance) together with several extremely magnetically weak fleeting linears, which are again probably of agricultural origin.

Topsoil magnetic susceptibility levels proved to be relatively low, and the response to magnetometer (gradiometer) survey generally weak.

The presence of other anomalies, including a small structure which may have funerary characteristics and a possible dwelling or ritual structure of posthole construction, make this site rather complex.

The latter is reported on separately as Document 2. One main objective of the geophysical surveys was to determine whether it was possible to identify any subsurface remains which might relate to buildings which would have appeared on Henry Hawthorn's' 16th century survey of the castle. Both surveys have in fact demonstrated that there is sufficient agreement between the ""anomalous"" areas indicated by both surveys and the alignments in Hawthorne's plan to allow at least a tentative reconstruction of an outline of the buildings in the western part of the inner Bailey. To the west of the Gatehouse, the area of the GPR survey appears to have been confined to the outer Bailey only. No obvious evidence for the line of either the inner or outer moat was seen. It is possible to say, however, that there may have been substantial occupation of the Bailey at a relatively early date. The riverside wall running between the Gatehouse and the Norman Motte has been successiully located by both surveys and its line accurately plotted. This wall does not appear to have run around the Motte. It may have either terminated at the latter structure or cut inside it - there is no defnite evidence either way. It is possible that part of the moat around the Norman Motte and Bailey has been identifed by both surveys. The overall results of the survey have been very good and it is evident that closer study of the data by a combined team of historian and archaeogeophysicists could greatly improve the reconstruction of the buildings on the missing portion of Hawthorne's plan.",N 1126,"In May 1997 detailed earth resistance surveys were conducted in two areas within the Castle grounds to determine the location of probable archaeological remains possibly associated with the early palace, motte and bailey moat, and northern section of the curtain wall.

The purpose of the survey was to ascertain the presence of unknown vaults located beneath the churchyard's footpaths. The survey was successful in identifying six anomalous areas. Although there is no possibility that these anomalies may represent features other than vaults, it is concluded that there is a strong possibility that they are associated with buried vaults. It is recommended that these results be substantiated by an appropriately designed archaeological evaluation.",N 1132,"A Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) survey was carried out on the 4th of October 1996 by the Clark Laboratory at the Museum of London Archaeology Service Two areas of the site were deemed viable for surveying in October. Area one was found to be unresponsive to GPR because of a high degree of ferrous waste present. However, a number of anomalous areas were located in area two, two of which may represent a variety of archaeological features. Other anomalies detected in area two correlate with the known locations of two test pits excavated between the 31st November and the 23rd December 1994 and subsequent development, construction and blinding works. It is the authors overall conclusion that the survey's potential to achieve it's objectives was considerably reduced by a number of factors, specifically site conditions and insufficient notice being provided to the Clark Laboratory to conduct the survey.

The resistance and fluxgate gradiometer surveys to the north of the parish church, and to the north of the churchyard boundary have revealed the foundations of a modern mausoleum and a possible building. Measurements of the width of the presbytery from the geophysical data compared well with that obtained during excavations carried out in 1899. However, while the use of progressively smaller sampling intervals produced an increase in definition at each level, it was felt that the extra work involved in taking measurements at 0.25m x 0.25m spatial resolution was unjustified since the measurements were very similar to those obtained at 0.5m x 0.5m resolution.",Y 1135,"This report presents the results of a GPR survey at Cock's Farm Roman Villa, Abinger, Surrey. The survey was carried out in order to augment information obtained by the recent excavations at the site and to provide additional information on the survival of structural remains in those areas of the site not open for excavation.

The aim of the survey was to test for evidence of archaeological features, possibly of Roman or Anglo-Saxon date, the presence of which was indicated by previous trenching at the site. The survey consisted of an initial assessment of the complete site by means of magnetic susceptibility testing and magnetometer scanning, followed by detailed magnetometer surveying of selected areas. The survey failed to detect any clearly defined magnetic anomalies which could be conclusively identified as archaeologically significant without any further investigation, but did indicate areas of increased magnetic activity which would be consistent with the presence of clusters of small features of the kind indicated by the trenching. The location of these areas correlates well with the trenching results in area A of the survey (to the NW of the site). Findings from area B (near the centre of the field) are slightly more problematic, but the possible presence of Saxon remains of the kind noted here in the trenching cannot be excluded on the survey evidence alone.",N 1138,"This report presents the results of a Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) Survey carried out by the Clark Laboratory on the original site of the Globe theatre in January 1998. The survey data were processed using the state-of the-art 3Dimensional software recently developed for use with the GSSI system used for the survey. Ten separate areas both within and outside the basement area of the listed building Anchor Terrace were surveyed. Significant data were obtained from five of these areas and which could represent reflections from surviving remains of the Globe. All of these reflections lay within an area which would have been defined by a structure which had an external diameter considerably less than 100 feet. It is therefore the general conclusion from this survey that possible significant remains of the Globe have been identified beneath Anchor Terrace and that these are more likely to have been associated with a structure whose external diameter was close to 72 feet rather anything larger.",N 1140,"A geophysical survey was carried out at Holwell Landfill Site, Hitchen as the first stage in an archaeological evaluation being undertake by the Museum of London Archaeological Service.

Magnetometer, resistivity and ground penetrating radar surveys were undertaken to test for evidence of features associated with the landscaping of the 19th C gardens, and of fonner structures and services. The magnetometer survey was particularly successful in locating the brick footings of the 18th C service wings to the north of the house, and in tracing pipes connected to the fountain to the south. The resistivity survey detected numerous subsurface disturbances, some of which clearly relate to former paths and parterres between the house and the fountain. Other features were detected which may relate to medieval or later buildings to the south west of the house. The radar transects gave good depth penetration, and confirmed the detectability of the service tunnels which give access to the chamber beneath the fountain. It also located pipes and provided additional evidence for features seen in the resistivity and magnetometer surveys.",N 1142,"The magnetometer and susceptibility surveys have produced results which strongly suggest the presence in this field of archaeological features associated with past occupation activity of a similar character to that seen in the adjacent excavation. These findings are most concentrated in the eastern half of the field, although there could be more isolated features elsewhere. The significance of the resistivity findings is more difficult to assess. One visitor to the site mentioned that worked stone was brought to the surface when the field was deep ploughed some years ago. It may therefore be the case that any structural remains are poorly preserved, at least to the depth at which they would be detectable by resistivity (c. 70 cm). The resistivity plots may represent a combination of archaeological disturbances together with natural variations in the depth or composition of the subsoil but, given the absence of identifiable intact features, interpretation is difficult. The magnetometer survey probably provides a more reliable guide to areas which could be given priority in any further investigations at the site.",N 1143,"The survey has detected two ditch-like linear features, one of which is comparatively well-defined, and the other irregular or eroded. Either or both may be modern, but the possibility that they may be archaeologically significant cannot be excluded on the survey evidence alone. They do not, however, appear to be associated with any other potentially significant magnetic anomalies which would suggest that any additional archaeological features are present at the site, although not all such features would necessarily respond well in the clay subsoil. The survey instead produced a relatively high level of background noise probably indicating the presence of iron and other magnetic material of modern origin in the topsoil, perhaps together with naturally magnetic stones in the boulder clay subsoil. It is not impossible that magnetic anomalies representing small pits or post holes could be present, but the random distribution of the magnetic activity, and lack of any larger features of clear archaeological significance (other than the two possible ditches) suggests this is unlikely.",N 1144,"The survey has confirmed that the previously recorded cropmark enclosure survives and is slightly larger than indicated on the available plan. A second smaller enclosure was also detected to the north west of the main enclosure. The geology of the site creates a slightly disturbed magnetic background which causes difficulties for the detailed interpretation of smaller magnetic anomalies, and so it is not entirely clear whether any concentrations of well-preserved settlement remains are likely to be present. The correspondence between the magnetometer and susceptibility findings would be consistent with the presence of such features, but further investigation would be needed to confirm this possibility.",N 1145,"A geophysical survey was carried out at the request of Bob Croft, County Archaeologist for Somerset, after a hoard of over 9000 silver coins were discovered in a field near Glastonbury. The results showed that an extensive building occupied the site, likely to have been a Roman courtyard villa.

Despite this, the gradiometer recorded a number of pits, hearths and short ditch type responses throughout much of the survey area. In addition, several areas of magnetic disturbance were detected that suggest possible occupation activity.

The survey's objectives were to establish the location and character of probable archaeological and paleo-environmental remains on three sites within the city of Carlisle, using a variety of geophysical techniques. The best results were obtained using resistivity, magnetometry and Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR). The results of the resistivity and magnetometer surveys are presented in Document 2 of this report whilst this document presents the results of the GPR surveys on the Hadrian's Bridge and Castle Green sites. On the Castle Green site GPR has successfully located and identifed the source of a stong magnetic disturbance which has proven a problem for two magnetometer and resistivity surveys. It has also been able to penetrate this material and identify possible archaeological remains beneath it. Various services such as pipes, electric cables etc. have been identifed. Some small isolated anomalies which have been identifed as areas of possible pitting were seen on the eastern side of the survey area. The survey data suggest that there may be the remains of two signifcant ditch systems on this site. The data also suggest that the remains of a building complex with an associated external surface may survive on the site. On the Hadrian's Bridge site the GPR survey has succeeded in identifying subsurface anomalous areas on several transects both in the bed of the river Eden and on its west bank. All the identifed anomalous areas appear to lie in a rough alignment. The strength of the reflections from these anomalous areas could be consistent with the presence of masonry. The depth of the anomalies located at 75ns or lower (based on likely pulse velocities) would appear to be between 2 and 3 metres.",N 1149,"This report was commisioned from the Clark Laboratory (MOLAS) by the Carlisle Archaeological Unit in June 1997. Detailed geophysical surveys were conducted at Bitts Park and Castle Green, Carlisle to establish the location and character of probable archaeological and paleo-environmental remains on two sites situated within an extensive known archaeological landscape. A network of probable structural anomalies has been located at Castle Green by detailed resistivity survey and these may be associated with former building foundations on site.

The gradiometer survey results are dominated by the response from the pipe. Magnetic disturbance in a portion of the area occupied by the Roman building has masked responses from archaeological features, though the survey may have determined the east-west extent of the comlex. Clusters of pit and kiln type anomalies were recorded to the east of the pipe, within a grid pattern of closely spaced linear responses. They are separated from the possible villa complex by a possible trackway and indicate a substantial area of intensive occupation and/or industrial activity. Resistance survey was carried out over the site of the Roman building. Several linear anomalies were detected in the results and, although some relate to responses recorded by the gradiometer, a plan of the former building was not obtained. The poor results obtained by the technique are thought to be due to a lack of contrast in resistance levels between buried features and the soil into which they are cut.",N 1157,"Major problems were encountered at the site due to the presence of the newly laid gas main. The area available for investigation was reduced because of the strong magnetic anomalies associated with the ferrous pipe. Similarly, difficulties were encountered due to soil heaps and other extraneous material left within the fenced working easement. Despite these problems it was hoped that any anomalies associated with a kiln would be recognisable in the dataset. Unfortunately buried cables, and/or another pipe, further complicated the results. Only one anomaly was located that could possibly be interpreted as being associated with a kiln, but the strength and nature of the results suggested that the responses are the result of a third pipe or more cables.

The predominance of pasture along the route, which had precluded both aerial photographic and fieldwalking evidence, tasked magnetic survey as the prime indicator of potential archaeological sites along the proposed route. Conditions were not ideal, and changes in geology are reflected in natural variations in topsoil magnetic susceptibility. Nevertheless there are clear indications of anthropogenic modifications of soils into organised patterns, together with numerous indications of zones of specific activity, some of which were capable of further detail by gradiometer. A number of sites of archaeological significance have been recognised, and several areas of potential outlined. Many of the survey areas produced graphic topsoil magnetic susceptibility plots, including clear indications of anthropogenic modification such as field systems and both occupation and other activity areas. By combining information from chance finds, surface observation, cartographic and documentary sources it is possible to give a reasonable idea of major patterns of landuse. There are also more equivocal and enigmatic areas of topsoil magnetic patterning where the sources of enhancement are not clear. In some instances it derives occasionally from material imported or derived from other sources, occasionally associated with modern construction. In other cases ancient industrial activity and agricultural erosion have created contrasting magnetic susceptibility. There are cases where attested occupation from the later Medieval period to the present has produced good patterns. In a few, however, there seems to be little correspondence between the topsoil magnetic susceptibility plots and areas known to have post Medieval occupation. Some lower-lying sites may be covered with colluvium/alluvium, and masked from magnetic survey. Gradiometer results varied considerably. Some zones showed a good correspondence between the topsoil magnetic susceptibility map and underlying features; in others the response was poor. Gradiometer scanning proved extremely difficult. Some promising areas produced indifferent plots with suspected incorporation of soils containing industrial residues. A good gradiometer response to the relatively superficial agricultural activity in many areas suggests that had substantial archaeological features have been present they would have been detected, although it is highly probable that a number of sites have been truncated by subsequent agriculture, and in some places features with low magnetic susceptibility with insufficient stature are unlikely to be revealed by gradiometer survey. The picture of activity in the river valley and lower-lying pasture fields is indistinct. It is significant that stronger gradiometer features have been revealed in areas where the best indications of former field systems have been revealed by topsoil magnetic susceptibility survey, notably in the Devonshire Inn and Stopgate Cross localities. The broad indications are that these topographically higher plateau areas have been progressively improved for agriculture from areas of moorland and common upon which were located sporadic ironworking sites, crossed by numerous trackways and probably retaining, until relatively recently, a number of prehistoric barrow cemeteries. The magnetic picture is reinforced by fieldname elements, cartographic evidence, and surface indications of ironworking residues, together with occasional finds of prehistoric worked flints. These elements come together graphically at Stopgate Cross, where the magnetic survey has revealed an ironworking site, probable multiple trackways, and patterns of former small field systems and cultivation strips superimposed upon an area which has produced a scatter of worked flints and a votive prehistoric axehead, and where cartographic and documentary evidence suggests the presence of an ancient road/causeway.",N 1254,The gradiometer survey has successfully located linear anomalies possibly associated with a cropmark feature located south of complex SMR 5684. Several possible pit like anomalies were recorded in the data set thoughtheir interpretation remains tentative. Responses from ridge and furrow were recorded in the most southerlysurvey area close to cropmark complex SMR 4143.,N 1255,"An initial examination of the site with the gradiometer in scanning mode located possible archaeological responses in two areas within the development. Subsequent detailed recorded survey detected evidence of potential archaeological features in one of four locations investigated. These appear to be a group of pit type anomalies. Although such responses are often associated with occupation activty, no responses clearly indicate settlement, such as enclosing ditches, were recorded. It is possible that the pit anomalies are natural in origin.",N 1256,"The scan only detected a few anomalies of possible interest. Detailed gradiometry recorded a complex of ridge and furrow responses and ditch anomalies in the eastern extreme of the application area. These responses may relate to the remains of the Medieval village of Hasland. A broad linear response in the centre of the southern part of the site may represent remains of Ryknield Street. However, the orientation of the anomaly varies significantly from the projected line of the roman road. Elsewhere, a number of linear responses were recorded that appear to relate to ploughing trends and possibly ridge and furrow. Several archaeological type responses were identified but their archaeological interpretation is uncertain.",N 1243,"The magnetometer survey of site 4 found good evidence for an elliptical enclosure, with internal features, possible associated with a parallel ditch system. Old field boundaries were also detected within this area. No major features of archaeological interest were found at the other two areas surveyed.",Y 1244,"Magnetometer survey was carried out at a site on the Baldock Eastern Bypass. The survey has provided evidence that ditches, possibly associated with the barrow cemetery surveyed in an earlier survey, continue to the northwest. No evidence for archaeological features was found to the north or northeast.",Y 1252,The gradiometer results obtained in the Biddenham Loop survey have extended our knowledge of the surviving archaeology within the area. In the majority of cases where cropmarks have been investigated their existence has been verified. The results of the surveys over artefact scatters have been more varied. Those areas thought to be blank were largely devoid of archaeological type anomalies.,N 1253,"An initial gradiometer scan of the site found it to be magnetically very quiet. Occasional strong small scale responses were encountered and these were found, with few exceptions, to be ferrous in nature. Several responses of archaeological potential were targeted for detailed recorded survey. In each case the anomalies were shown to have been produced by field drainage features. Several magnetically weak responses were also detected that are possibly of archaeological significance. However, the interpretation is tentative because the resonses are more characteristic of natural subsoil variations.",N 1234,"Geomagnetic surveys were undertaken in the 'Kiln Fields' at Wether Cote in Bilsdale, North Yorkshire, to prospect for Medieval tile kilns and any associated archaeological features. Geomagnetic anomalies in the study area were intense, reflecting strong thermoremanence within fired structures and dumps of material with high magnetic susceptibility. Good geophysical evidence was found for a number of kilns.",Y 1235,"It has not been possible to locate unequivocally the primary source of copper alloy artifacts at Andrew's Hill although the suggested revetment and pit about 20m north of the excavated area may be worth further archaeological investigation. The site produced no evidence for graves. However, a linear anomaly parallel to the west field boundary is interpreted as an ancient roadway, field wall or bank.",N 1242,"Geomagnetic survey was carried out at three areas along the proposed Baldock Bypass Eastern Route. The survey confirmed the survival of prehistoric barrow cemetaries at Sites 2 and 3, and various pits and old field boundaries were detected. Geophysical survey of the crop mark recorded at Site 1 has located a set of linear ditches forming a rectangular enclosure of about 0.6ha, with ditched side 'aisles' of uncertain date, as well as a number of other probable archaeological features.",Y 1213,"A geophysical evaluation programme, comprising topsoil magnetic susceptibility field sensing and magnetometry, was carried out at selected locations along the proposed route of the A30 Honiton to Exeter Improvement, c.17 km long between 296800 093300 to 313130 099400. Topsoil magnetic susceptibility provided abundant evidence for changing patterns of landuse, some of which are apparently pre-Roman, notably in the Ash Farm - Castle Hill area, where contrasting magnetic topsoil spreads indicate the location and changing alignments of former hedgerows, banks and field systems in the vicinity of an extensive prehistoric settlement. The survey produced graphic evidence for considerable magnetic enhancement on two sites of archaeological significance: Castle Hill and Blackhorse. Only one known site, opposite Gittisham Service Station, did not produce local topsoil magnetic variations because of colluvial masking, although it did respond to gradiometer survey. Both the previously recorded archaeological sites at Blackhorse and Gittisham Service Station and the suspected site at Castle Hill (Weddell 1991) produced gradiometer anomalies providing additional information regarding the geometry and extent of the underlying features. In addition, topsoil magnetic susceptibility survey combined with gradiometry has added a number of new sites showing archaeological potential, although it must be stressed that gradiometer survey of the features encountered, even over known substantial archaeological targets, was frequently weak, which did not favour gradiometer scanning as a means of locating archaeological features. Consequently, it was necessary to undertake fairly large gradiometer surveys in order to characterise the underlying anomalies. In some cases, however, because the response of the gradiometer to former agricultural features was relatively good, notably at Daisymount, it is anticipated that any substantial earlier 'cut' features present should have been located. It may be suggested, however, that there is a category of archaeological site which, although having a reasonably good topsoil magnetic susceptibility identity, and occasionally with surface indications (such as flintwork) do not comprise a high proportion of 'cut' features (pits, ditches, postholes etc) and are therefore invisible to gradiometer (or resistivity) survey. Despite these problems, the possibility of the survival of archaeological horizons at these locations must be considered. A large proportion of the designated survey areas have produced graphic magnetic plots, giving clear indications of anthropogenic modification such as field systems and also defining former settlement/activity areas which, in combination with information from chance finds, surface observation, cartographic & documentary sources and aerial photography provide clear indications of areas of archaeological potential.",N 1232,"The report contains the results of a gradiometry and earthwork survey at Middleham Castle carried out during the summer of 1998. The results have shown that the site was a substantial residency within a defensive curtain wall, with the internal buildings possibly set around a courtyard. The extent of the castle enclosure appears to continue into the churchyard and adjacent farm.",N 1257,"The gradiometer survey was unable to locate any anomalies that could confidently be described as originating from archaeological features. Several linear anomalies identified by the survey relate to recent land use. The part of the site once occupied by the enclosure was found to be severely disturbed by ferrous debris associated with agricultural buildings and cultivation processes. Although it was hoped that the enclosure ditch would be recognisable, no anomaly indicating the presence of such a feature was detected. No responses of archaeological interest were located either inside or outside the camp that might suggest the remains of settlement activity.",N 1258,"The strongest non-ferrous responses have been recorded in Area A and are clearly archaeological in origin. No responses of a similar magnitude have been recorded elsewhere. several linear responses have been noted which are almost certainly due to agricultural processes. A few ditch type anomalies are just discernible in the data, although an archaeological interpretation is tentative. They could be the product of geological processes such as polygonal cracking/jointing. Several pipes have been detected.",N 1259,"The survey recorded a number of possible archaelogical features across the site. A long meandering linear anomaly runs approx N-S through the application area. Apparently associated with this feature is a possible double ring ditch, and numerous small pit type anomalies. A group of possible ditch and pit type anomalies in the NE suggest possible settlement. These responses coincide with a distinct hollow that may indicate more recent quarrying. However, given the presence of the Roman road, the archaeological interpretation cannot be dismissed. A series of weaker linear responses, remains of possible field systems, was also identified. The latter are partially obscured by relatively high background noise levels that may be the result of recent agricultural practicec. Several areas of increased magnetic activity have been identified by the survey that may also be of archaeological significance.",N 1260,"Scanning and detailed survey failed to detect any suggestion of the two pit alignments or the ring ditch. Scanning did locate several concentrations of anomalies of possible archaeological interest. However, detailed survey suggests that these are probably geological or modern in origin.",N 1261,"A geophysical survey was carried out over Church Field at Beerway Farm, Shapwick in Somerset at the request of the Shapwick Project to extend previous geophysical survey work carried out there. The magnetometer results detected a complex palimpsest of archaeological anomalies from both Roman and medieval periods including the remains of the original church at Shapwick, which existed between the 8th- and 14th- centuries AD. Complementary archaeological evidence gathered by the Project helped to interpret the anomalies visible in the survey results.",N 1272,"Geomagnetic survey was undertaken over two areas to be affected by a proposed road link in Norton, North Yorkshire, and in close proximity to the ""Three Dykes"" earthwork, thought to represent a prehistoric boundary. Intense magnetic anomalies in the northern survey area are interpreted as being due to services; the southern area being free of such disturbance and exhibiting soil polygons thought to be of periglacial origin.",Y 1273,"The data collected in the site are magnetically noisy because of overgrown vegetation, adverse ground conditions, buried pipes and modern disturbance. In addition the interpretation is confused by broad anomalies of a presumed natural origin and anomalies produced by modern agricultural processes. Despite these difficulties, numerous anomalies of archaeological interst have been detected, suggesting a continuation of the fieldsystem and enclosures located by the previous survey to the northeast. Several pit type anomalies of possible significance have also been noted. Strong responses have been recorded at the northwestern limit of the survey, perhaps suggesting that the core of the associated settlement may lie to the northwest of the current survey area. As a result of the poor ground conditions there will have been loss of detection of weaker magnetic anomalies that might be associated with more ephemeral archaeological features.",N 1274,"The data are magnetically noisy due to modern debris and buildings. Although a few ditch and pit type anomalies have been detected, an archaeological interpretation is tentative due to the lack of any coherent form to the responses. Two of the more promising anomalies were highlighted for possible trial trenching.",N 1275,Two of the three enclosures previously identified by topographic survey were shown to contain structural features. a possible shrunken way was also identified.

None of the geophysical anomalies detected were interpreted as being due to archaeological features.",Y 1284,"The gradiometer survey has succeeded in identifying the AP feature; however the results suggest that it consists of a single ditch, not two, and that it may relate to an old field boundary. To the east of this, and on the same alignment, is a series of plough lines that appear to be associated with former ridge and furrow. In addition, the survey has identified two other major ditches, and it is interesting to note that all three ditches located by the gradiometer intersect at one point in the field. Other anomalies of archaeological potential are substantial pit like responses, though these may be associated with former bell shafts. Given the likelihood of past mining activity in the area, it is difficult to ascertain whether the magnetic anomalies are related with former coal workings, or whether they are of greater antiquity.",N 1292,"A corridor along the proposed route of a pipeline at Basildon Park, Berkshire has been surveyed geomagnetically.

Two large pits were also detected, possibly underlying the ridge and furrow.",N 1293,"Geophysical survey was undertaken at High Boulby Farm, Cleveland, following a proposal for tree planting. The site lies within a rich prehistoric landscape containing ceremonial monuments, Bronze Age burial mounds and flint scatters.

However interpretation is made difficult by anomalies from the ridge and furrow and the close proximity of ferrous responses.",N 1352,"Scanning showed that the site was magnetically very quiet and did not locate any anomalies of potential archaeological significance. Due to the lack of archaeological responses detected by the initial scan four detailed survey areas were positioned to sample the four large fields within the development area. Although archaeological type responses were recorded in each of the survey locations, they are weak trends in the data, close to the background noise levels and not detectable by scanning. An agricultural or natural source may account for these responses. Consequently, due to the magnetically weak and ill-defined nature of the anomalies, their interpretation is tentative.",N 1353,"Two anomalies of possible interest have been detected. The most likely target is a large isolated ferrous anomaly detected towards the centre of the survey area. A second anomaly of possible interest has been identified in the southwest of the survey area. However,this lies within an area of general disturbance possibly suggesting a more recent origin.",N 1354,"Detailed gradiometry over the known cropmarks has produced a wealth of archaeological type anomalies, providing greater detail than the aerial photographs. Of particular interest is a series of ring ditches at site 4, for which there is no cropmark evidence. Scanning of the' blank areas' indicated generally quiet background responses although agricultural effects were evident in the majority of areas. Several anomalies were targeted for subsequent detailed survey. Numerous ditch and pit type anomalies have been noted in these areas. While it is likely that these do reflect buried archaeological remains in the apparently blank areas, some of the responses may be due to agricultural processes or modern material.",N 1355,"The scanning located many anomalies of archaeological potential which were then subjected to detailed gradiometer survey. This detailed survey located a complex of enclosures, fields and a possible focus of settlement. While it is believed that the majority of the areas of archaeological interest have been located some features may lie outside the survey area. It is uncertain if the anomalies relate to a single phase of occupation or indicate a long term use of the landscape. It is possible that some of the archaeological features found in this assessment extend beyond the present southern and eastern boundaries of the application area.",N 1356,"The gradiometer survey has clearly detected the enclosure ditch and the main entrance is clearly visible. There is a suggestion of a second entrance on the northern arc of the enclosure. Within the enclosure several pit type responses have been located, with a marked increase in srength and density in the east, and appear to be archaeologically significant. No clear evidence of a bank is apparent in the data.",N 1357,"The magnetic data set is very confused.The majority of the area contains responses that can be attributed to ferrous material, which is likely to be modern. However one possible hearth type anomaly was detected, though the archaeological interpretation remains tentative. The resistance survey was hampered by variable ground conditions. Anomalies were detected that were considered to be associated with topographic effects and vegetation cover. However, the results contain a number of anomalies that may be archaeologically significant, and while some could be associated with garden features, several may relate to the former bishops palace.",N 1359,"The scan located few anomalies of potential archaeological interest. Detailed survey suggests former ridge and furrow and/or field divisions of unknown age. One area produced significantly different results, including curving ditches and an increase in magnetic noise. This could be due to dumped material evident in the the plough soil. Other anomalies are likely to be due to ditch and pit type features of uncertain origin.",Y 1360,"The data are generally noisy which is likely to be due, in part, to former use of the site as market gardens.The clearest responses comprise two parallel linear ditches suggesting a trackway. Although several other linear anomalies have been noted they are extremely weak and interpretation is tentative. However, given the context of the site, an archaeological origin cannot be ruled out.",N 1361,"Although no clearly defined concentrations of archaeological type anomalies were located during scanning, a few isolated responses of possible interest were noted. Detailed survey over the possible marching camp located no anomalies corresponding to the cropmarks. A portion of the single cropmark to the north, however, was detected. The detailed survey in the east of the area has located several possible ditch and pit type anomalies. While many of these appear archaeological, a modern and/or agricultural origin cannot be ruled out.",Y 1362,"The edges of the site were magnetically disturbed. This is attributed to buried ferrous debris of presumed modern origin. The most obvious responses in the detailed survey reflect the ridge and furrow just visible on the ground surface. A few isolated ephemeral anomalies may be of archaeological interest, but this interpretation is highly tentative.",N 1363,"Although several ditch and pit type anomalies have been located at the South of Newport site, it seems probable that these relate to in-filled drainage ditches. The surveys at Ugley Hall Farm have not detected a continuation of the Roman site which lies to the east of the motorway. The clearest gradiometer results are from Parsonage Farm, Sansted, where several weak linear responses and possible pits have been recorded. However, the data are confused by a strong linear response which may indicate a former field boundary. The results from the survey at Parsonage Farm Trading Estate indicate one linear response which is likely to be modern, probably agricultural.",N 1364,"The scan found the area to be magnetically quiet, apart from occasional small scale ferrous responses. However the scan identified clusters of strong responses of archaeological potential in three locations. These and other smaller scale anomalies were subsequently investigated by detailed recorded survey. The results of the detailed survey suggest that the magnetically strong anomalies identified by the scan were likely to be natural in origin. however one group of anomalies close to the southern edge of the application may be archaeologically significant.",N 1365,"After poor response from gradiometry survey, a small resistance survey was carried out providing clearer data. The emphasis of the survey techniques was subsequently altered to take this into account. The results are mixed. With a combination of techniques most of the major AP features have been detected. While a few smaller cropmarks have been missed, some other unknown anomalies have been detected. No clear suggestion of the hunting lodge was found in the area of the recorded earthworks, but possible building remains were detected elsewhere.",Y 1366,"The two surveys have been particularly successful in this project. The responses from the magnetic data, although weak, are clear and confirmatory of the AP evidence. The data suggested that a subdivided enlosure, approximately square and 70 x 70m in extent, was located in the southern part of the survey. There are suggestions of other trackways apparently associated with the enclosure, as well as indications of circular features within it. The resistance data confirmed the ditched features encountered during the magnetic survey, including a circular feature in the eastern quadrant of the enclosure. While this was the only evidence for possible habitative features, elements of zonation were found within a series of possible pits within the opposing quadrant.",N 1367,"The gradiometer has identified a series of anomalies within the application area. However few of these are believed to be of archaeological interest. Those that may be of interest are a number of lengths of possible ditch. In general, the anomalies located during the survey largely appear to represent ridge and furrow or landscaping associated with quarrying at the site.",N 1368,"Interpretation of the data set was difficult due to the relatively weak response of features compared with the general background noise. Several features of interest were detected by the gradiometer which are potentially of archaeological significance. These responses are mainly ditch or pit like features with three anomalies being attributed to potential kiln type features. A tentative building feature was interpreted though a non-archaeological source cannot be dismissed.",N 1369,"No anomalies of certain archaeological origin have been recorded. While it is suspected that the soils at the site may only be adequate for magnetic prospection, it is expected that any substantial foci, such as a former settlement, should still be detectable.",N 1370,"The gradiometer has succeeded in defining many of the cropmark features suspected of lying within the eight sampled areas. Naturally, there are some features interpreted from the AP evidence that have not been detected by the geophysical survey, while in some areas detail has been added. Comparison with the survey data and excavation carried out during the evaluation of the recently built Leven Bypass, that lies adjacent to the site, suggests that some features were not located by the gradiometer. It is therefore likely, assuming that the soil conditions are similar to the earlier work, that here also, some features will not have been detected.",N 1371,"An initial examination of the site with the gradiometer in scanning mode did not locate any possible archaeology within the road corridor development. The fields investigated by the survey were found to be variously affected by the disturbance from ferrous debris. In some places this was due to the presence of ferrous building debris and rubbish dumped in the survey area. A sample of detailed recorded survey confirmed the magnetically noisy nature of the site, as suggested by the scan.",N 1372,"Ground conditions were difficult, and few anomalies of likely archaeological origen were detected by scan. Detailed survey confirmed this, except in the SE corner where some anomalies of possible archaeological potential were detected. Past work at Ardleigh by EH has cast doubt on the ability of geophysical techniques to detect some archaeological features, but it seems probable that major features associated with settlement would have been detected.",Y 1373,"A few anomalies of archaeological interest have been identified, but most of the data reflects geological variation.",Y 1374,"Scanning revealed that the majority of the application area was devoid of archaeological type responses. By contrast the two fields containing most of the known archaeology produced numerous anomalies indicating habitation patterns, a possible street, and some suggestion of multiple phases of activity. The resistance survey over the DMV has been less successful. A few possible ditches were noted and there is some correlation with the gradiometer results. No clear evidence for building remains was identified by the survey.",N 1375,"The area centred on the potential settlement enclosure was found to be magnetically very disturbed due to dense concentrations of ferrous debris of recent origin. This interference will have masked responses from all but the more substantial archaeological features and those containing strongly enhanced fills. Despite the disturbance the survey located the double ditched feature in addition to other anomalies of archaeological potential. Resistance survey clearly recorded the position of the double ditched feature. High resistance readings were recorded over much of the interior of the presumed enclosure. No obvious building plans are apparent in the results. The high resistance is considered to have a non archaeological source. The scan showed the remaining area to be magnetically disturbed. Several linear responses were found by further detailed work, but these may be modern.",N 1376,"The gradiometer survey identified a few linear and pit type anomalies, although their interpretation remains tentative. The magnetic responses are weak and it is possible that given the small size of some of the ditches recognised in the quarry faces, the gradiometer has failed to detect such features. Although magnetic susceptibility measurements on soils collected at the site indicate a measureable contrast exists between the topsoil and the sandy subsoil, the archaeological features would have to be reasonably substantial and filled with the existing topsoil to produce clear magnetic anomalies. It is possible therefore that the weak responses highlighted in the interpretation merely represent a small proportion of the surviving features. Without controlled excavation over some of the magnetic responses it is impossible to accurately guage the significance of the results; it would be unwise to suggest the view that the results definitely indicate a lack of archaeology in the areas surveyed.",N 1377,The interpretation of the gradiometer data suggests that there are few anomalies of archaeological potential within the survey area. However in assessing the significance of the results it is important to recognise that the magnetic background was very noisy and may have suppressed any weak anomalies produced by archaeological features.,N 1378,"The results from the gradiometer survey have revealed a wealth of anomalies of archaeological potential. Although the level of response is generally low it has been possible to identify a number of ditch type anomalies, possibly indicating a settlement or enclosure and associated features. The effects of ploughing are evident in the data. Former ridge and furrow have left characteristic trends in the data while modern ploughing may have resulted in damageto the buried archaeology. A few of the anomalies are very strong and it is believed that one may indicate the position of a burnt feature possib;y a kiln.",N 1379,One weak linear response has been noted as possibly archaeological.,Y 1380,Geomagnetic anomalies within the subsoil were found to be extremely weak and difficult to detect against the background noise. The presence of the ring ditch seen on air photographs was confirmed. However the presence of other cropmarks could not be verified geophysically. Two further ring ditches may have been detected.,Y 1381,"Geomagnetic anomalies arising from the subsoil at Shardlow were found to be very weak. No geophysical evidence was found for the continuation of the Aston Cursus through the corridor of the proposed development. No further archaeological structures were detected in the arable field SW of Weigh Cottage. However, several positive, linear and one circular anomaly were detected in the SE of the main pasture field.",Y 1382,"Geomagnetic anomalies along the pipeline route were found to be weak but provide data relating to geological and archaeological features. No geophysical evidence was found for a continuation of the ditch excavated at the eastern limit of the study area. The survey also recorded a number of sinuous, positive anomalies consistent with soil-filled gullies that may have a geological origin.",Y 1383,"Geomagnetic anomalies within the three study areas were found to be very weak but provide tentative evidence for several archaeological features within the proposed quarry extension. These comprise ring ditches, a possible fired structure and a number of pits. The anomalies of archaeological interest were encountered along the eastern and western traverses. On the basis of the present dataset, the centre of the study area appears to be featureless.",N 1384,"Geomagnetic and electrical resistance anomalies arising from the subsoil were either weak or moderate, with the magnetometer survey being dominated, in part, by disturbance and iron contamination. Geophysical mapping provides evidence for archaeological structures north of the flood barrier and an area of possible trackways immediately north of Simkins Farm. Structural remains were also detected in the study area adjoining Adbolton Hall Annexe.",Y 1386,Resistivity survey over the site of the proposed dwelling detected several zones of high resistivity which are thought to reflect dumps of stoney material or drains. The survey of the access and parking areas appeared to have only detected the remains of a tennis court and buried services.,Y 1388,"Geomagnetic survey was undertaken at Ancroft prior to the proposed housing construction on land immediately north of the Deserted Medieval Village of Ancroft. Moderately intense magnetic anomalies appear to indicate a number of archaeological features, including enclosures and possible structural remains, all of which may be Medieval in origin.",Y 1389,"Geophysical survey was undertaken to test for the presence of Friary remains in an area proposed for construction at Yarm Grammar School. A set of high resistivity anomalies have been detected SW of the Friarage and may reflect associated archaeological remains. A number of drains or ditches have also been detected.",Y 1392,"Geomagnetic surveys were undertaken on two fields at Throston Grange, Cleveland to test for archaeological features prior to a proposed housing development. In addition to anomalies due to medieval ridge and furrow, a weak positive linear anomaly was detected, possibly the response to a ditch or field drain. A second weak positive curvilinear anomaly was also detcted, but it is unclear whether this is archaeological, geological or pedological in origin.",Y 1391,An electrical resistivity survey was carried out on the site of Orleans House in Twickenham. Geophysical evidence was found for a NW-aligned wall footing or gravel path near the midline of the demolished house. A circular high resistivity anomaly was detected at about 20m SW of the site of a former fountain. It is conjectured that this may reflect remains of a flower bed or garden ornament.,Y 1393,"Geomagnetic and soil electrical resistivity surveys were carried out on proposed development land at Lostock Hall Fold, near Bolton. A number of anomlies of archaeological interest were detected. These include the possible remains of buildings,several old field boundaries and an area of ridge and furrow, The surveys have also located the former site of an orchard, a possible walled enclosure with internal track, and the location of a former rabbitry.",Y 1394,"This report presents the results of geophysical surveying and trial trenching at Albermarle Barracks near Heddon-on-the-Wall in Northumberland. Neither the geomagnetic survey nor the excavation of four trial trenches provided any evidence for archaeological features remaining in the ground. The presence of service pipes were confirmed by the survey, and evidence of recent disturbance was apparent in each trench.",Y 1395,"Magnetic susceptibility of both background and features is very low. However, sufficient variations in the data have allowed a number of interpretations to be made. The enclosure ditches were clearly detected, and higher values of susceptibilty appear to indicate some form of anthropogenivc activity in and around the Neolithic enclosure.",Y 1396,Analysis of the magnetic susceptibility data has identified large circular structures and magnetically enhanced features which form linear paterns.,Y 1397,"Close interval magnetic susceptibility field measurements were systematically taken on the topsoil stripped area. A magnetometer survey was previously carried out over the surface by EH and magnetic anomalies located. Magnetic susceptibility detected these magnetic anomalies and resolved them into separate forms. The MS survey also located smaller more discrete features, mainly over the south of the area. Most of the extreme south and north of the area proved to be archaeologically sterile.",N 1398,"The results of the resistance survey are considered to reflect the topographic variations present at the site. Interpretation of the resistance surveys are considered to reflect the topographic variations present at the site. Interpretation of the data is complicated by responses produced by modern services and roadways. However, there are several anomlies of archaeological interest that, although minor, may have added further detail to the understanding of the site. There is some evidence to suggest that parts of the former road leading to the gateway in the Outer Bailey has survived. Possible structures of archaeological significance have been recorded between the northern side of the Outer Bailey and the former Basingstoke Canal.",N 1399,A magnetometer survey was conducted over an area of ~5.5ha containing a series of linear crop marks to the W of the river Hull where previous excavation had revealed a well preserved Viking age structure interpreted as a bridging point. Whilst the geophysical survey successfully identified a number of significant anomalies correlation between these and the AP evidence was poor. No further suggestion towards the date of this activity or an association with the bridging point was provided by the survey.,N 1400,"A magnetometer survey was conducted over an area of 2.9ha containing cropmarks at Whitehall Farm, Kelk, East Riding and revealed a number of significant anomalies associated with a rectilinear enclosure of probable Roman date. This enclosure contained a group of apparently thermoremanent anomalies which may well represent some form of semi-industrial activity, such as pottery production. No evidence for the location of the reported `lake dwelling' was found during the survey due, perhaps, to the subdued magnetic response over the lower lying wetland areas of the site noted in both the gradiometer data and values of topsoil magnetic susceptibility.",N 1401,"The Roman fort at Washing Wells Farm was initially identified in the 1970's by aerial photography, but no further investigation of the site was made. The aim of the survey was to systematically survey the site using geophysical techniques to try to identify the nature of the fort. The results added considerable detail to the existing knowledge of the site, with very definite anomalies interpreted as ditch defences and a quatrilateral inner enclosure with entrances along the ramparts. There was, however, no indication of any corner towers or significant activity within the fort. Unfortunately no artefacts were observed on the surface of the site and a magnetic susceptibility survey could not be carried out and therefore could not enhance the present interpretations.",Y 1402,"Further detailed magnetometer survey around Covert Lodge revealed more evidence of intensive pre-historic settlement, although some areas revealed little such evidence.",N 1403,"A resistivity survey was carried out on a deserted settlement with field system on the National Trust's Holnicote Estate. The aim was to compare the results with those from archaeological excavations and earthwork surveys previously completed on the site to better understand the nature of the settlement.

A large number of anomalies with the hillfort indicate that further investigation of the site is needed to fully understand the patterns of settlement here.,Y 1405,The aim of this radar survey was to investigate the possible presence of brick vaults in St Lawrence Jewry. Several of the 16 scans made revealed anomalies of possible interest and those not relating to the presently known vault are believed to be significant enough to be investigated by more intrusive methods.,Y 1430,"A magnetometer survey, covering a total of 1.6 hectares in four discrete blocks, was carried out using a fluxgate gradiometer along the route of the proposed water main. A discontinuous linear ditch type anomaly of possible archaeological origin has been identified in the most southerly of the survey blocks. However it does not continue into the pipe corridor. A faint negative anomaly can also be seen in the north-easterly survey block. It is not thought to be archaeological.",N 1429,A sample area of 4 hectares was surveyed using a fluxgate gradiometer on a site that is proposed for development into industrial units. Several anomalies of possible archaeological origin were identified. These anomalies are thought to form part of a major system of land division/enclosure that has been identified immediately west of the current site. There was no evidence of the postulated Roman marching camp.,N 1407,"Magnetometer and resistance surveys were undertaken near Adlingfleet, Lincolnshire, in response to a request from the Humber Wetlands Project (HWP). An extensive spread of Roman material, including some Samian Ware, had been collected during an HWP field walking assessment of the Ancholme and lower Trent valleys near to the confluence of the Rivers Trent and Ouse. The geophysical survey carried out in 1996 successfully located a number of surviving archaeological features, including clear evidence of industrial activity, and thereby assisted the location of HWP assessment trenches. Further survey in 1998, to the north of the original area, located more magnetic anomalies of a similar type and intensity to those detected in the 1996 survey.",N 1408,"A magnetometer survey was conducted over an area of approximately 1.4 ha at Tamarisk Holiday Farm, Porthcothan, Cornwall, where a metal detector had previously located copper ingots believed to be Bronze age in date. No magnetic anomalies were revealed in the vicinity of the find although a number of linear responses, possibly related to former field boundaries were noted. Several intense magnetic anomalies were identified and are possibly indicative of thermoremanent features; however, no direct association with metalworking can be suggested.",N 1409,"From the aerial photography, an area adjacent and west of the Roman town of Alchester can be seen to be partially enclosed by a double ditch, a structure inferred to be remains of a Roman fort pre-dating the town. A geophysical survey of this area was performed for and by members of the Oxford University Archaeological Society between August and September 1998. This survey aimed to ascertain the extent of the ditches and to search for internal structures, Resistivity area survey was chosen in light of the soil type, ground conditions and certain logistical considerations. Approximately 3 hectares in total were surveyed. From the resistivity survey the length of the minor axis of the fort was found to be approximately 246m. A road visible on aerial photographs follows the same alignment as the southern ditch. If it reuses the double ditches of the earlier fort(ress), for which there is good evidence, then the length of the major axsis is at least 330m. This is consistent with the structure being a vexillation fortress. Serveral internal structures were found, most significantly a road in alignment with the main West-East road, adjacent and east, within Alchester's late second century defences.",N 1410,"A geophysical survey was conducted over the location of Roman building remains discovered by limited excavation in 1947 at Church Farm, Ashington, W. Sussex. Magnetometry, resistivity and magnetic susceptibility all indicated an area of intense activity corresponding approximately with the known location of remains. Some evidence of contemporary field ditches was also found. However, the geophysical response was difficult to interpret and no firm limit to the site was identified.",N 1411,"The gradiometer and magnetic susceptibility surveys successfully located and identified a number of archaeological anomalies within this monument which were previously undescovered. However, a complete characterisation and definition of the hillfort's interior was impossible due to geological disturbance of the site and the low resolution of the geophysical surveys arising from the large sample interval used when collecting data.",N 1412,"A magnetometer survey was conducted over an 0.8ha area centred on the location of late Bronze Age hoard of copper alloy objects recovered at Tower Hill, Ashbury, Oxfordshire. It was suggested that the finds may have formed part of a metal worker's hoard and may possibly have been associated with metal working activity at the site. Unfortunately, neither the magnetometer data nor the results from a 2.5ha topsoil magnetic susceptibility survey provided any significant anomalies to substantiate these assumptions or to aid subsequent excavation of the site.",N 1413,"Despite the alluvial deposits the survey was successful in locating the 1998 trenches and palaeochannel. There are also a number of anomalies, mainly linear, which may be archaeological. Of significance is a ringed anomaly located close to Kites Corner. The survey was also successful in assessing the application of standard magnetometry compared to two refined techniques aimed at locating weak anomalies through alluvial deposits.",N 1414,"A programme of geophysical investigation has been carried out in the Cockpit area at Richmond Castle in North Yorkshire in order to try to identify features of likely archaeological or historic garden interest prior to the possible reinstatement of earlier gardens. Both geomagnetic and electrical resistivity methods have been employed in this investigation. Several features have been identified, including possible wall footings and a series of probable paths. Two ferrous pipes which terminate under the Cockpit lawn have also been detected. One of these appears to head towards a possible tank in the eastern corner of the Cockpit. An electrical resistivity sounding test suggests that the site may be suitable for ground penetrating radar profiling, particularly during the summer or autumn months.",N 1415,"Initial geophysical surveys (resistivity, magnetometry and magnetic susceptibility) were conducted in September 1998 at the site of Bury Walls in Shropshire. This was a preliminary survey carried out by students of Keele University as part of their final years dissertation. The objective of the survey was to survey in detail three 100x100m squares of the site to see what geophysical features were present and if possible, make an archaeological interpretation. Definite linear and circular anomalies are seen within the resistivity data. The magnetic surveys are less clear. Overall, it looks like there are features that suggest occupation of the site, but a complete survey of the site is necessary before we can start making archaeological interpretations.",N 1416,"The resistance and gradiometer surveys have provided clear archaeological information although in some places the interpretations appear at odds. The resistance data identify a number of spreads of high resistance along with a series of linear anomalies. It is likely that this data can be linked to the position of structural and wall type remains. The gradiometer data has provided good evidence for industrial or burnt features. The magnetic data also apparently identifies wall remains, although the correlation with resistance is only partial.",N 1417,"A geophysical survey was conducted over part of the Anglian Enclosure to the east of Abbey Lands Farm at Whitby Abbey, Whitby, North Yorkshire. Magnetometry and resistivity surveys were used at a higher resolution than on previous occasions at this site but were nonetheless unable to detect satisfactorily the presence or pattern of the many features predicted by previous trial excavation.",N 1418,"The results have shown a number of responses of archaeological interest within the eastern half of St Michael's Field, which has revealed the course of Ermin Street with what appears to be an adjacent row of buildings. The western half of the St Michael's Field has not revealed any evidence for structural remains, although it is possible that this section of the park has been landscaped and this has obscured and/or destroyed any Roman deposits. Survey failed to locate the road running perpendicular to Ermin street, although this has been subject to landscaping. Survey within the remaining area has produced some anomalies that may be of archaeological interest. However, the restricted size of the areas has meant it has prevented a full evaluation of the levels and significance of background variation, and as such, any interpretations are cautious.",N 1419,"Extensive unexcavated structures appear to survive at the site, particularly to the east of the church and chapter house. Structural remains are also likely to be present both to the east and west of the reredorter.",Y 1420,"High resolution magnetometer and resistivity surveys were undertaken during May 1999 in Longstones Field, Beckhampton, to re-locate features detected by previous geophysical surveys and aerial photography, in advance of excavation later in 1999. The resistivity survey located four anomalies which, if indicative of former stone positions, could be interpreted as comprising a part of the supposed Beckhampton Avenue. Magnetometer survey over the same area was inconclusive, but re-processing and re-examination of previous survey data (1989), which covered a wider area, has revealed the intermittent course of a cropmark circuit photographed in 1997.",N 1421,"Resistance survey of the garden area immediately to the north of the Deanery has located several responses of interest including a possible complex of buildings in the northern half of the survey area. While some of these responses relate to known features, there are suggestions of additional anomalies of possible archaeological interest suggesting further structural remains. GPR survey within the garden area to the north of the deanery has identified numerous reflections of possible interest. Some of these are likely to relate to modern features or landscaping associated with construction of the Deanery or ;later landscaping in the late 1800s. However , other reflections may indicate structural remains. The results suggest possible structural elements along the northern limit of the survey which correspond with high resistance anomalies. GPR over the gravel car park has also identified several response of interest. While some services have been noted, other responses have also been identified which may be of greater significance. A broad curving response may be a drive leading to the deanery visible on 1854 and 1890 maps. Responses on the northern limit suggest a rectangular form and, as such, may be significant. However 19th century landscaping cannot be excluded.",N 1422,"A gradiometer survey covering 2.8 hectares, was carried out along the line of a proposed water pipeline at Woodhouse Lane, Hatfield. Weak linear magnetic anomalies, some of which correspond with crop marks, have been identified; other crop marks have not been identified by the survey.

It is believed that a valuable find of unknown origin was recovered from this field by metal detectorists, possibly from within a grave. Readings were taken at 0.25m intervals to increase the chance of identifying discrete features. The background magnetism was extremely low with little variation in reading across the site. Apart from the massive response from a water main several linear anomalies were identified; one of these may be caused by an archaeological ditch.

A set of three parallel higher resistance anomalies extend east from the west inner rampart of the hillfort, and curves through 90 degrees continuing north to the edge of the survey. Considering other evidence, this latter has been suggested as a possible Roman fortlet or signal station.",Y 1436,"An area of 1 hectare was surveyed, using a fluxgate gradiometer, along the line of a water pipe corridor immediately south of a late medieval homestead whose location is still indicated by low earthworks. Two discrete anomalies of possible archaeological origin were identified on the extreme northern edge of the site. however, these are outside the projected pipe corridor.",N 1437,"The magnetic susceptibility of the site was very low, and although faint magnetic anomalies were detected, it is possible that most of these are glacial in origin. A total of 14 anomalies were detected, 11 in camp B and only 3 in camp D.",N 1438,An area of approximately 0.35 hectares was surveyed using a fluxgate gradiometer and an earth resistance meter on land off Vicar Crescent Darfield. No anomalies of probable archaeological origin were identified by either survey technique.,N 1439,"A magnetometer survey, covering a total of 2.6 hectares, was carried out using a fluxgate gradiometer on land adjacent to Wharfedale Drive, Altofts. A system of ditched land division was identified around a central enclosure. Three discrete anomalies that might be pits or areas of burning have also been identified",N 1440,Eleven small sample areas totalling 3 hectares was surveyed using a fluxgate gradiometer on a site where it is proposed to opencast coal. The results both confirmed interpretations made from aerial photographs and identified additional discrete and linear features. It is recommended that additional geophysical survey be undertaken in selected areas.,N 1441,"An earth resistance survey covering approximately 0.5 hectares, was carried out in six discrete blocks at the grounds of Wombwell Hall, Wombwell. No anomalies relating to medieval phase of occupation of the site were identified. Several linear anomalies probably caused by modern garden features were identified.",N 1442,"No magnetic anomalies indicative of archaeological features were detected, and consequently the status of the Waterstone Dolmen as either a portal dolmen or a chambered long barrow was not resolved.",Y 1443,"No magnetic anomalies were detected. Although it is suggested that the monument is possibly a chambered long barrow with no flanking ditches,it is noted that anomalies associated with such features might be too weak to detect.",Y 1444,The magnetic survey of the monument was abandoned due to interference from the nearby TV and radio mast on Pen Hill.,Y 1445,Magnetometer survey detected two semi-circles of negative readings . It appears most likely that the anomalies represent parts of two round barrow ditches.,Y 1446,Magnetometer survey detected two adjacent circles of negative readings of approximately 8.5m in diameter. It appears most likely that the anomalies represent parts of two round barrow ditches.,Y 1447,"A number of linear features, detected as both high and lower resistance anomalies, appear to cross the site on two main axes.",Y 1448,"Magnetometer survey, extending upon a previous investigation of Roman and Iron Age finds, also included in this report, has succeeded in identifying a substantial complex of archaeological features covering an area of at least 2.5.hectares. A series of irregular oval enclosures have been defined, interspersed with a number of smaller sub-angular enclosures and ring ditches. The finds were from the southern periphery of this complex.",N 1449,"The survey has detected large and well defined, low and high, linear resistance anomalies. The anomalies appear to be aligned with the House and it is suggested that they are related garden features.",Y 1450,"The survey appears to have revealed a number of large ditches on various alignments, and a possible ring ditch. No evidence of settlement was obtained. A line of four circular anomalies were interpreted as either tree holes or possibly bomb craters.",Y 1451,The survey has indicated that archaeological deposits within Goresbrook field are intact. No structural remains were identified with the possible exception of a linear high resistance anomaly.,Y 1452,The survey has detected a number of linear features which appear to be related to the present garden and includes a modern water pipe. Structural remains appear to have been detected under the north-east lawn of the house.,Y 1453,It appears that the outline of the cropmark has been detected by the survey. This seems to indicate part of a rectilinear structure.,Y 1454,"By comparing the GPR results, and those from an earlier magnetic gradiometer survey, with a map of the excavated area it was shown that the primary 'wall' features could be easily identified in the GPR sections. The degree of feature distinction was dependent on the nature of the features. The report represents preliminary interpretation of the data, providing the basis for mathematical forward modelling.",N 1455,"Varying results were obtained, allowing a number of techniques to be assessed. Although the conductivity results were poor, and resistivity mapping inconsistent, It was possible to correlate features detected in the radar sections with the magnetometer data.",Y 1456,"The results of the survey demonstrate a marked contrast between the northern and southern halves of the survey area. To the north, where burials were to be expected, linear responses probably indicate the presence of rows of burials. To the south, the survey results indicate much less disturbed ground although there are a number of reponses which could indicate the presence of isolated burials. A band of high resistance which runs from east-west through the centre of the survey could be a trackway associated with the moated site which lies to the west of the site.",N 1457,"The survey results provide an accurate location plan of known features (such as the moat and services which traverse part of the site), as well as locating features of interest across the entire survey area. These include the locations of possible structures and the identification of other features like a possible causeway across the moat where the gate house now stands.",N 1458,"The survey results, while inconclusive, have produced a number of interesting anomalies in the data recorded. No evidence for round house construction was detected , but some indicators of pit like features were suggested.",N 1459,"This dissertation aimed to search for areas of activity around five Bronze Age round barrows in the Peak District using geophysical techniques, and to assess whether these techniques were successful. The data from all five sites produced plots which were considered helpful to the study. In general, more features could be identified in the data from the Carlton Pastures barrows than from those collected at Vincent House.",Y 1460,"The survey recorded a number of archaeological type responses indicating further settlement beyond the initial study area, to the east of the main Roman road. Most notable are a group of small enclosures, pits and a possible trackway in the central part of the survey. The east-west Roman road was recorded in the northern part of the survey area. Some anomalies of interest were identified in the southern half of the site, but the responses are invariably weak (some being little more than trends in the data), making an archaeological interpretation tentative. The combined results of the current and previous detailed surveys have confirmed the observations made during an initial scan of the site in 1996; namely that the majority of archaeological type anomalies are located in the central and north-eastern part of the survey, with a marked decrease in frequency and strength of responses in the southern half of the evaluation area.",N 1463,"The GPR survey identified three significant categories of reflector: Possible structure reflections, Type I layers, and Type II layers. The interpretation was unable to discriminate between structure reflections of archaeological significance and those caused by modern objects. It was suggested that the lower reflection amplitudes and variable outline of the type I layers are more consistent with features of an archaeological origin, based on previous results from similar sites, whereas the type II layers were thought more likely to correspond to recent constructed layers or excavations",Y 483,"With the exception of small isolated magnetic anomalies which may be of natural origin, archaeological activity has only been detected around the stone circle itself. Magnetic susceptibility measurements suggest that major features outside the circle should have been detected if present: however , it is always possible that minor or poorly preserved features cannot be discriminated from background interference. Neither survey method has produced convincing evidence for a ditch. Smaller features are obscured by the extreme readings from both surveys, and with the possible exception of one of the 'barrows' no recognisable internal features have been detected. Both surveys do, however, suggest the presence of buried stones, perhaps as cobbling, packing or former standing stones.",N 1464,"The site has been very disturbed, making it difficult to form an entirely conclusive interpretation from the survey. However those subsurface anomalies detected would be quite compatible with the presence of significant, structural features.",Y 1465,The scanning was limited to field 0031 because of crops. Most of the significant magnetic activity appeared to be limited to the stream valley.,Y 1489,"Geomagnetic and electrical resistivity surveys have taken place in four areas of the school grounds: the small playing field to the north; the main playing field to the east; an area of gardens on the west side of the school and a small terrace near the housing and, unfortunately, it is evident on the ground that deliberate landscaping has taken place on both the school playing field areas, which may already have destroyed any remains of the battle there. The majority of geophysical anomalies that were detected can be attributed to modern features obseved on the field, for example, goal posts and athletics areas. The distribution of field drains has also been clearly mapped. Some of the anomalies may be due to more than one factor and cannot be interpreted fully by their geophysical characteristics alone.",N 1508,"The survey has detected a high resistance linear anomaly running west-east across the fort, which may represent an earlier line of defence. The seismic and depth-sounding data suggests that any archaeology may be more than a meter under the ground surface over significant areas of the fort . The resistance data becomes less clear towards the edge of the slopes, and it has been suggested that the much of the hill has been extensively quarried at some point.",Y 1528,"Much of the area investigated was found to be magnetically disturbed due to the presence of buildings and fences associated with the farm. As a consequence, it is difficult to identify any anomalies of obvious archaeological interest. However , there are a few anomalies which have been highlighted. These would benefit from further archaeological investigation and such work should help clarify the exact nature of the features.",N 1529,The survey has determined that the main feature within the surveyed area is a moated enclosure. No firm indications of building foundations were discovered.,N 1532,Magnetometer survey located significant deposits of iron slag associated with iron smelting.,Y 1543,The radar successfully identified various anomalous areas within both basement areas which may be due to buried wall/foundation features.,N 1544,The radar successfully identified various anomalous areas within the basement area which may be due to buried wall foundations.,N 1545,The radar results were found to be quite variable in nature with no definitive identifiable reflections being obtained from the known foundation block. An analysis of the results has identified a limited number of locations for further exploratory excavations.,N 1546,"Magnetometer survey of the interior of the hillfort indicated little in the way of archaeology other than recent garden features. An area in the southern part of the meadow field revealed a variety of archaeological anomalies, including a hollow way and two ditched enclosures.",N 1566,"Anomalies were detected by the resistivity survey which suggest that wall remains extend eastwards as far as 15m from the east wall of the Abbey. A linear anomaly running north-south, 19m to the east of the North Aisle, and a sinificant anomaly about 30 m east of the juction of the two existing buildings were also detected.",N 1547,"The surveys have detected evidence for isolated blocks of either masonry or foundations, but no substantial structures where the proposed new building is to be sited.",Y 1548,"The results of the GPR survey gave generally good agreement with the resitivity survey of the same area. The survey also provided some additional information on the depth of the areas highlighted in the resistivity survey. However, due to the way the survey data was taken, the outline of the archaological features found is vague.",N 1549,"A number of both high and low resistance anomalies were detected by the survey. These have been interpreted as roads, trackways and structures.",Y 1525,"A number of magentic anomlalies which appear to represent pit-like features were located. However, no recognisable plan of an archaeological site was evident.",Y 1591,"The survey at Stoney Littleton involved both magnetic and resistivity techniques. The magnetic data are dominated by the response from the monument itself, although some pit-type anomalies have been found. By contrast, the resistance data are more variable, with many individual anomalies and broad trends apparent within the survey. Despite the increased variation, few definite archaeological features can be defined. It is suggested that a broad quarry 'scoop' may be present slightly upslope and to the north of the mound.",N 1592,"The geophysical survey in the West Field has clearly identified many anomalies of archaeological significance. It was believed that the results were most likely to indicate settlement rather than cemetery and this was proved by excavation. The alignment of the Military Way through the elliptical space has been interpreted in two ways. However , the most likely scenario is that the road follows the southern edge of the space, exiting the western edge through a gap between ditched features. The elliptical space appears to be comprised of magnetically unmodified soil, suggesting neither settlement nor industrial activity. In New Field the interpretation of the geophysical evidence is more ambiguous. While burial was identified and excavated, it is believed that the magnetic contrasts are, on the whole, too weak to be distinguished from the background response from the soil.",N 1550,"The results from the 1996 survey showed the boundary wall and possible indications of former agricultural activity. The 1997 survey has detected a broad linear anomaly, interpreted as a garden path, and a low resistance anomaly to the south-west of the survey area.",Y 1593,"The survey findings have confirmed the presence and survival of the main villa building, although the indistinct resistivity response from its eastern half suggests the remains here are less substantial than to the west. Other responses were detected to the NE of the recorded cropmark positions. No ditches or enclosures were detected. The magnetic susceptibility survey produced distinct areas of enhanced readings against a low background, confirming that archaeological activity at the site is likely to be concentrated in the vicinity of the known cropmarks",N 1595,"A geophysical survey was carried out at the request of Roy Canham, County Archaeologist for Wiltshire, after Roman masonry remains were unexpectedly discovered during the construction of a housing development to the north of Swindon. Whilst magnetometry results were disappointing owing to modern disturbance on the site, resistivity contrast was good and the remains of at least four Roman buildings were identified, with the suggestion that several more existed. Taken with other archaeological evidence the geophysical results point to the presence of a major Roman religious complex on Blunsden Ridge.",N 1596,"The magnetic susceptibility surveys have detected clearly defined areas of anomalous readings at each of the two sites. The distribution of areas of enhanced response appears to be archaeologically significant, and to relate to features detected in the magnetometer surveys. The most distinct correlation between the magnetometer and the susceptibility surveys at Castle Ditches appear to be between positive susceptibility anomalies and the interiors of ditched enclosures seen in the magnetometer survey . At Norsebury there is a similar relationship between susceptibility response and increases in the concentration of silted pits found by the magnetometer. Susceptibility values diminish at each site in areas with less magnetic anomalies, and the earthworks ramparts at Norsebury correspond to a band of low susceptibility readings. The soil sample readings from each site provide a less detailed picture of the susceptibility variations, given that they were taken at a wider separation, but they reflect the larger scale variations seen in the field coil data, and so confirm the overall validity of the field coil surveys.",N 1599,"A geophysical survey, using magnetometry, resistivity and magnetic susceptibility, was conducted over an area of approximately 3 ha on Bryher, Isles of Scilly, where an Iron Age cist grave had been discovered. Whilst some anomalies were detected which may be archaeological in origin, the data has mostly been compromised by modern interference, underlying geology and subdued responses. The most obvious anomalies tended to correspond with known features and so little more information has been provided to set the cist into a wider context.",N 1598,"Magnetometer survey was conducted over the location of the seven barrows recorded by the Ordnance Survey at Butterbump Round Barrow Cemetery, Lincolnshire, in advance of trial excavations by the Humber Wetlands Project. Three barrows were identified by very unusual negative anomalies corresponding with their ring ditches and it is surmised that the latter may therefore be infilled with peat. At least two of the barrows contained central magnetic disturbances, but it is unclear whether these are contemporary features or more recent evidence of excavations. Although some other possibly significant anomalies were located the presence or absence of other barrows in the group could not be confirmed.",N 1597,"The geophysical survey of two sites near the village of Marshchapel, Lincolnshire, successfully detected the remains of probable occupation and industrial activity. The latter was particularly apparent in the field named Burnt Mound, where evidence for thermoremanent structures and enclosures was detected. The second field exhibited much weaker magnetisation but was nevertheless shown to contain concentrations of buried features near a former palaeo-channel; field walking evidence here implies a Roman date.",N 1594,Magnetometer and resistivity surveys successfully mapped the barrows revealing a number of significant features. Analysis of the resistivity data and GPR profiles suggests that the underlying solid chalk is close to the surface at the centre of the barrows which in turn suggests that shafts are unlikely to be present.,N 1602,The survey has shown the value of resistivity survey within the Pilsdon Pen hillfort. Generally the survey anomalies confirm the earthwork evidence on the site. Of particular interest is the area of low resistance within the section of the inner rampart facing the causeway. It may represent a late blocking of an entranceway contemporary with the causeway.,Y 1604,"The overall change in resistivity readings between the two halves of the garden may be of topographical or geological origin, with higher readings from the slightly higher ground to the south. The high readings around the concrete lie within the site of the former cottages, and it appears that the survey has responded to remains of the 19th C structures at least in part, although more recent disturbances may also be present. The magnetometer survey confirms that the northern part of the garden is extensively disturbed.",N 1605,"The remains of at least one wall have been detected beneath the garden of Abbey house, and a possible soakway has been detected in the Southwest corner of the Abbey House gardens. The resistivity survey has detected several high resistance lineations in the western part of Abbey Lands Field, which have been interpreted as either walls, or flagged paths associated with the nineteenth century garden.",N 1625,Electromagnetic and geomagnetic surveys have been carried out on six areas of land along the proposed route of the A63 Selby Bypass in North Yorkshire. Few subsoil features of archaeological interest have been located by the surveys . However a number of anomalies of geotechnical importance were detected; these include metal pipelines and a system of silted paleochannels beneath the Barlby study area.,N 1626,A number of anomalies were detected by the survey which have been interpreted as being associated with the medieval priory. In addition features of probable later date have been identified.,Y 1627,"The resistivity survey produced findings which relate to ditches, drains, a former stream channel and known earthworks, but it failed to provide unequivocal evidence for additional earthworks or structures which could be associated with the presence of a medieval settlement. The survey responded to both natural and recent disturbances, some of which nay be insubstantial or superficial. The resistivity and magnetometer findings from the eastern field did, however, include some features which, although not clearly of archaeological origin, are difficult to categorize, and whose significance cannot be finally established on the survey evidence alone. No clear archaeological interpretation can be attached to the findings from the western field. The correspondence between magnetic disturbance and some of the earthworks previously recorded in this field suggests that a number of these features are likely to be of recent origin.",N 1628,"Geophysical survey at 12 sites along the proposed rail corridor has generally failed to locate any clearly defined anomalies of archaeological interest, other than some possible ditch and pit type anomalies. However, an exception to this is the resistance survey to the south of Corbier Hall, which has located a complex of anomalies indicating building remains.",Y 1630,"The results indicate a network of service pipes and cables crossing the field under investigation, and a scatter of ferrous type anomalies presumed to be modern or geological in origin. One small area of enhanced magnetic readings was shown by excavation to coincide with a shell midden deposit. Beneath this was found a complex of small archaeological features of Bronze Age date. It is unlikely that the gradiometer survey will have detected such features due to their ephemeral nature and the depth of overlying deposits. This fact must be borne in mind when considering the lack of archaeological type responses in the results.",N 1631,"The site was found to be magnetically very noisy due to a combination of debris, remains of bonfires, adjacent fences and buildings. Despite the poor ground conditions several anomalies of archaeological potential were identified. Trial excavations were carried out in two locations and a layer of modern debris was found in one trench that was thought to be the likely source of the magnetic response. Granite boulders were found in the other trench, but it was thought that ferrous disturbance beyond the edge of the survey was responsible for the anomaly.",N 1632,"The magnetic survey of the interior of this hill fort has found a number of anomalies both discrete and linear in nature. Similarly the soil resistivity survey has revealed numerous anomalies again being a mix of discrete and linear features. It is thought that the near surface Limestone geology is responsible for many of the anomalies found particularly with the soil resistivity results. However a number of features thought to be archaeological have been identified. As the amplitude of these anomalies is generally low it is thought that any surviving archaeology may be tenuous in nature.",N 1633,The survey successfully located anomalies relating to buildings belonging to the villa complex which were known from an earthwork survey. The resistivity survey proved more productive than the magnetometer survey although the magnetometer survey was able to locate possible areas of industry.,N 1635,The results of the survey appear to have identified features which probably indicate the position of the chancel along with a possible extension of its eastern wall. A north-south linear anomaly was detected c.10m to the east of the present church.,Y 1636,"This report describes the findings from a series of geophysical surveys carried out to test for evidence of possible archaeological sites or features at 13 locations along the route of the proposed Channel Tunnel Rail Link. Detailed magnetometer surveys were made at four of the sites, giving definate archaeological findings at one (Tollgate), and some features of potential significance at others.",N 1637,This report describes the findings from a series of geophysical surveys carried out to test for evidence of possible archaeological sites or features at 7 locations along the route of the proposed Channel Tunnel Rail Link.,N 1638,"Survey over the proposed road corridor showed only one field (Site 38) to have any anomalies that are likely to be of significant archaeological interest. Numerous linear and curvilinear responses have been identified elsewhere. These could potentially be archaeological, but are more likely to reflect modern agricultural activity and/or natural variations within the subsoil. Survey in the field north-east of the Longbarrow Cross Roads (Site 40) has produced a multitude of responses of archaeological significance. Two strong ditch type anomalies that cross the area correlate with known cropmarks and represent boundary ditches that form part of a larger archaeological landscape. Numerous weaker anomalies have also been identified and these are likely to be of interest, although the weak nature of the responses means that their interpretation is cautious.",N 1641,A geophysical survey combining large area magnetic susceptibility measurements with targeted magnetometer investigations was carried out on the site of the Roman fort of Othona and its surrounding landscape. The magnetic susceptibility survey identified six areas of probable archaeological activity outside the fort. Two of these were investigated by magentometry and probable archaeological features were located. Magnetometry on the fort provided data on its condition and layout of internal structures.,N 1661,"The survey results have shown that the ground plan of a villa still survives, with indications that considerable remains are preserved below ground.",Y 1681,"The survey has confirmed the position and configuration of a number of features previously revealed by the magnetomer survey and partial excavation. In addition, the radar has generated depth information for these features and identified other remains related to unidentified structures.",N 1691,"A geophysical survey was carried out at the site of the long barrow of Ling Howe near Walkington, Humberside to complement information obtained from an excavation by John Dent in 1984. Magnetometer and resistivity surveys successfully detected the long barrow's side ditches which had already been noted as cropmarks. Three pit-type anomalies were also detected within the barrow and one of these had a fill that was magnetically similar to the side ditches possibly suggesting that it originated at a similar date in the past.",N 1692,"The geophysical surveys identified a number of possible archaeological features. The resistivity survey appears to have confirmed a continuation of the enclosure wall known from earlier maps. However, none of the other anomalies were sufficiently clear to identify the remains of any structures.",Y 1693,"An initial gradiometer scan of the earthwork site found a magnetically quiet level of background response. A few anomalies of archaeological potential were observed in the northernmost part of the site. The results of the detailed geophysical survey suggest that the focus of occupation activity lies to the north of the moat. However, within the area few anomalies of clear archaeological interest have been identified. Most of the anomalies recorded by both surveys correspond to earthworks or topographic effects produced by them. Magnetic anomalies suggesting possible hearths and short ditch lengths were identified. Two of these lie within probable building remains visible as an earthwork on the outer edge of the north-western corner of the moat. Resistance survey has suggested that building remains extend along the length of the northern bank of the moat, though the interoperation is inconclusive.",N 1694,"A geophysical survey was carried out at Etal Castle in Northumberland in an attempt to locate remains of a putative fourth tower suggested by the topography of the site. An excavation in the 1970s had previously been attempted in the most likely position but had found no traces of wall footings for such a tower. The geophysical survey results did not produce unequivocal evidence for a fourth tower but did detect another possible location for it along the north east boundary of the castle site, as well as finding the probable location of the excavation.",N 1717,Resistivity survey located post-medieval garden features and traces of an earlier house layout and moat.,Y 1718,Resistivity survey and limited trenching revealed little evidence of moated manor site.,Y 1719,Resistivity survey revealed footings for building.,N 1720,Survey yielded negative results.,Y 1502,No significant results.,Y 1723,No significant archaeological features were detected.,Y 1726,"Despite high levels of disturbance, an undated ditch was detected.",N 1727,"Both survey areas have produced clear archaeological features. In contrast to the 1987 survey the resistance data collected around the monument provides a detailed building plan. It is likely that the difference in survey results is in part due to differing crops and meteorological conditions. It is also true that the larger area surveyed in the current work has helped in the identification of archaeological anomalies. While these responses may be confidentially ascribed to the known abbey, the interpretation of the gradiometer survey does not allow the identification of the fort. However, there is certain evidence of ditched features, some of which contain 'industrial' debris.",N 1750,"A resistivity pseudosection survey, consisting of four separate traverses, was carried out within the Inner Bailey at Pontefract Castle as part of the ongoing research into the history of the castle.

The small areas sampled do not appear to show any clear Iron-Age features. However, a number of linear anomalies and a possible pillow mound were detected.",Y 1753,"A number of anomalies were detected, as well as a broad change in readings probably associated with the geology of the area. The tumulus is indicated by a series of high readings and some evidence for a ditch surrounding the monument has been detected. There was no evidence of an extension to the known Bronze Age settlement.",Y 1754,"Two small areas in the centre of Canterbury, on the site of Greyfriars abbey, were investigated by resistance survey; unfortunately the results are confused and difficult to interpret. Although there are marked changes in the resistance levels, the anomalies are generally poorly defined and lacking in any shape or archaeological form. There are a few clear, high resistance responses that appear to represent surviving wall foundations, but there is only fragmentary agreement between the geophysical results and wall lines marked on local maps. Given that trees have been uprooted, the ground consolidated and the park has been landscaped, these factors will all have affected the results. It is likely that any surviving wall foundations will be 'hidden' below imported soil; and rubble concentrations. The possible presence of old paths is also thought to be confusing matters. Subsequent information has come to light regarding the excavation of some 25 archaeological trenches within the survey area. These will clearly have produced spurious anomalies.",N 1755,Much of the data was severely disturbed due to the presence of modern structures and tipping. No anomalies of a probable archaeological origin were identified.,N 1756,"An earth resistance survey, covering approximately 0.4 hectares, was carried out within the walled garden at Barnburgh Hall.

Other high resistance linear anomalies representing possible structural features were also identified. No anomalies relating to the Romano-British ditches were identified.",N 1757,"Anomalies attributable to recent agricultural practices, field boundaries and geological/pedological variations were detected. Areas of magnetic enhancement and positive linear anomalies were detected that have responses suggestive of an archaeological origin. However there is no discernible pattern to the distribution of these anomalies and none of them have any obvious relationship to known archaeological features in the immediate vicinity.

No anomalies of a probable archaeological origin were identified.",N 1759,"The `noisy' magnetic background, caused by a combination of geology and modern tipping, made interpretation of the data difficult. Weak, positive, linear anomalies were identified, possibly describing several recti-linear enclosures, with areas of magnetic enhancement and positive isolated responses adjacent to them.

Several discrete anomalies and discontinuous linear anomalies of unknown origin were also detected.",N 1764,"Anomalies indicative of ridge and furrow ploughing and a regime of later ploughing have been identified. Three short, linear anomalies and a discrete anomaly adjacent to the graveyard wall have also been identified. It is possible that these are archaeological in origin",N 1765,"A geophysical survey, comprising both resistivity and gradiometry, was carried out over extant earthworks. The earthworks describe a rough, sub-circular feature approximately 15m in diameter, within which there is a slight depression. No magnetic anomalies of a probable archaeological where identified. There was a high degree of magnetic disturbance across the site which is likely to have masked any response from possible archaeological features. Areas of very high resistance were identified, some of which correlate with the earthworks. The resistance survey suggests the possibility of two adjacent enclosures. No internal features were identified.",N 1766,"No anomalies of an obvious archaeological origin were identified.

For this reason a geophysical survey of the site was requested to help assess the quality of the archaeological resource under threat and develop a strategy for excavation.

Following this initial visit a further survey was conducted in May 1999 to field test a Pulse Ekko Ground Penetrating Radar and a Scintrex Smartmag caesium magnetometer.

It was hoped that this information would assist with the on going conservation of this mosaic.",N 1760,"A geophysical survey was carried out around a previously excavated Roman building situated in the valley of the River Ann near Fullerton, Hampshire. The purpose of the survey was to explore for additional associated features such as out-buildings and also to recover the position of previously recorded features interpreted as a water mill and leat. An extensive fluxgate magnetometer survey located a large rectangular enclosure surrounding the Roman building and containing possible additional structures. A linear anomaly may represent the supposed leat and a cluster of anomalies nearby might be the location of a mill. More limited resistivity survey added little further definite information.",N 1769,"The survey appears to have accurately located the Abbey and defined much of its ground plan. No substantial evidence for medieval settlement was detected in area A, with the exception of a possible enclosure and small structure.",Y 1771,"A resistivity survey was carried out over the south lawn of the Bishop's Garden in the grounds of Peterborough Cathedral in an attempt to resolve the course of the western boundary of the Anglo-Saxon burh. Even over the small 60x20m area investigated, there was considerable variation in the measured resistance and a number of anomalies possibly indicative of artificial structures were located. Of these a distinct high resistance linear anomaly is in a position and orientation coinciding with the expected course of the western section of the burghal defences.",N 1772,"Work at the Royal York Hotel failed to identify any burials, though given the complications of the site this was not unexpected. However, the survey did identify a Roman building which was interpreted as being a mausoleum. The question of additional buildings, identified on the resistance survey, remained unresolved in the time available. Both resistance and magnetic survey successfully pinpointed the 'lost' air raid shelter at St Leonard's. In addition, resistance survey and GPR investigations identified two column bases that excavations subsequently demonstrated were associated with the medieval hospital.",N 1776,Magnetometer surveys were undertaken at two earthwork enclosure sites south-west of Huddersfield. The objectives were to determine whether gradiometry is a suitable technique for identifying archaeological features on Millstone Grit geology and if there is any evidence for other domestic activity or for a ditched field system outside the main enclosures. Although outwardly similar in form and function the magnetic responses from the monuments are markedly different. At Oldfield Hill there was virtually no detectable response from the infilled ditch. It is thought that this primarily reflects the high percentage of stone in the fill. At Royd Edge the infill is predominantly silty soil and the ditch gives a strong magnetic signal thereby demonstrating that archaeological features can be identified on Millstone Grit geology under the right conditions. Isolated anomalies thought to be caused by archaeological activity have been identified inside both enclosures. There is no geophysical evidence for the continuation of archaeological activity outside the enclosure at Royd Edge but isolated responses north of the enclosure at Oldfield Hill could be indicative of further human activity.,N 1773,"The generally disturbed nature of the soil horizons indicated that considerable activity had taken place on the site north-west of the vicus and fort. The magnetometry survey successfully identified (in part) some of the previous patterns of land usage, which possibly has origins in the prehistoric through to the medieval period and the present day. A number of probable field boundaries were identified, although the evidence was inadequate to define the system completely. Evidence of some stone buildings was detected in the region of the suspected route of the Stanegate. The overall settlement pattern appeared to be linear with the buildings adjacent to and fronting the road. The structures themselves were not well-defined, possibly because of later stone robbing. A large number of features, tentatively identified as pits, were randomly distributed across the site, but their morphology and distribution did little to indicate either chronology or function. Some of these diffuse areas; especially those which were strongly magnetically responsive, may have been the sites of industrial activity. A large ditched feature was observed directly north of the excavated area of the vicus, which has been referred to as an enclosure. The nominal evidence implies that this feature, just over a hectare in area, may have been earlier than the stone buildings constructed along the route of the Stanegate. Evidence for internal structures is ambiguous and it is difficult to determine whether the `industrial' area in the north-west corner is contemporaneous. In brief this site, supported by evidence from previous reports, indicates a multi-phase occupational site. Whether this was an earlier temporary fort or an annexe is difficult to determine without additional investigation. Modern linear features, probably connected with drainage were also detected by the survey, but their archaeological consequence is slight. Geological interference may also have been observed and it must be appreciated that some of the `pits' may be caused geological factors such as igneous boulders. The nature and extent of the has not been fully characterised and it may be appropriate for the Vindolanda Trust to advocate additional intrusive investigation at this site in order to more fully determine the significance of the anomalies.",N 1777,"An ironworking complex on Exmoor, subsequently dated to the late Iron Age or early Roman period, was investigated using a fluxgate gradiometer to scan the visible remains. A range of samples of metalworking debris, including slag collected from the site, was analysed using X-ray diffraction spectrometry. The effectiveness of the rapid scanning technique is discussed with reference to the composition of ironworking debris.",N 76,"The site was magnetically highly responsive and clearly contained significant occupation remains. Features likely to be hut circles were detected as well a many pits. It was impossible to dissociate the cemetery from the settlement, but the cemetery might well contribute to the complex pattern of archaeological features which were detected.",Y 1778,"Three exploratory GPR traverses were carried out in the grounds of the Old Deanery to establish the potential of the area. All of the traverses contained reflections, and while many of these appear to be archaeologically significant it was not possible to formulate a precise interpretation.",N 1779,"The previously suspected destruction of the fort has been confirmed, although it should be noted that preservation of deeper archaeological deposits might exist below the survey instrument's maximum penetration depth. The survey has also confirmed the presence of a large vicus to the north-east of the fort, extending at least 350m towards the north-east and the scale of this development might suggest that upwards of 500 vicani lived within the settlement.",N 1800,"This report presents the description of magnetometry and resistivity survey results and discusses their archaeological significance. Both the magnetometer survey and resistivity survey successfully identified the route of the Turf Wall. Furthermore, buried features possibly associated with the Turf Wall were identified. The surveys did not establish conclusive evidence for the presence of Milecastle 69, although the resistivity survey detected a rectilinear feature of high resistivity, measuring approximately c 19m by 17m. These dimensions are commensurate with those of milecastles already known along the length of the Wall. In view of this evidence the report discusses recommendations for further archaeological evaluation.",N 1801,"This report presents the description of magnetometry and resistivity survey results and discusses their archaeological significance. The magnetometer survey did not successfully identify the route of the Turf Wall. However, the resitivity survey appears to identify the route of the Turf Wall at the extreme edge of the survey area. Furthermore, neither survey confidently established evidence for the presence of Milecastle 70.",N 1802,"Magnetometer and resistivity surveys were carried out over White Barrow (SAM: WILTS 750) in response to a request for information in advance of ground works to deter badger activity at the site. In addition to defining the form and extent of the monument, the surveys revealed the presence of several previously unrecognised structural elements of the barrow. A possible internal mortuary chamber or burial cairn (constructed from a resistive material such as flint or other stone) is suggested by a high resistance anomaly near the more pronounced eastern end of the barrow. The magnetometer survey detected an arc of pits arranged symmetrically around the eastern end of the barrow; these may have formerly supported timber posts or acted as a focus for ritual activity. Magnetometry also detected traces of a possible stone kerb or stone packed feature around the foot of the barrow mound, and the side quarry ditches have also been partially detected by both techniques. Features detected beyond the confines of the long barrow include linear earthworks and a possible enclosure.",N 1803,The report details the results of five surveys carried out in Suffolk as part of the Friars to Flyers project. See 'comments' for a short synopsis of each survey.,Y 1804,The survey results appear to illustrate the development of the site during the medieval period. The data also appears to contradict former interpretations of the layout of the Eastern range of the later courtyard complex.,Y 1805,"The magnetic techniques used in this project have identified many anomalies of archaeological potential in the two areas surveyed. In particular, significant remains have been found by the gradiometer adjacent to two roman roads within the scheduled area at Alchester. In other areas the evidence was more ambiguous with either weak trends or strongly enhanced areas of ridge and furrow being found.",N 1806,"A trial ground penetrating radar (GPR) survey was conducted over the site of the former Tudor Palace, Elsyng, London Borough of Enfield, following successful earth resistance and magnetic surveys. A number of significant anomalies were identified in the GPR profiles that were interpreted as reflections from buried walls and drainage conduits associated with the former palace. However, due to the limited area of the GPR survey amplitude time slices created from this data failed to provide convincing evidence for the location of the 1963-7 excavation trenches.",N 1826,"Magnetometer survey was conducted over the central area of Silchester Roman Town (Calleva Atrebatum) as part of investigations into the site by Reading University. The magnetic response was good and negative anomalies in particular have indicated the remains of the street pattern as well as several buildings - including the forum-basilica and a Romano-Celtic temple. Although not adding radically to existing knowledge of the lay-out of the town, the survey has provided valuable additional detail, complementing and extending upon information from previous excavation and aerial photography.",N 1827,"A high resolution resistivity survey was undertaken in the NE corner of Insula IX. Comparison with previous excavation reports and aerial photographic evidence suggested that 0.5m resistivity showed up the majority of aerial photographic features, but not quite all of them. Nonetheless, it shows the technique to be responsive at Silchester and suggests that its use in other areas where aerial photography is not responsive (cf. The SE quarter and various extra-mural areas) might be productive. It also concurs with the RCHME re-plotting of the AP evidence, that many of the excavation plans are not very precisely located on Hodges' 'Great Plan' of the site.",N 1848,"The results from this second survey at the site confirmed and extended the results of the previous survey. New discoveries include a sytem of double ditches in the eastern sector of the site, and putative building remains to the north of the main complex. More detail has been added to the outline of buildings surrounding the courtyard.",Y 1849,"Overall the results were inconclusive in terms of establishing the internal layout of the palace. However, it has provided a clear image of where structural remains are likely to be and roughly on what scale they are.",N 1850,"A resistivity survey covering three lots of nine 20m squares was carried out during 1999 around the buried site of a small Roman building excavated in 1901 by W. Trueman Tucker. Close to the site the survey revealed a significant pattern of high resistance rectilinear anomalies surrounding a geometrically shaped area of low resistance. These may indicate the remains of an extensive, but severely robbed and ploughed out Roman Villa of courtyard type with a gated wall and outhouses.",N 1851,"This survey in the fourth phase of the Newcastle Great Park Development has determined in part the remaining morphology of the prehistoric landscape associated with the Scheduled Ancient Monuments in Field 3. The survey of these monuments (Hazlerigg 1 & 2) produced evidence of their morphology, but also some indication of the degree of destruction. Their general similarity to other excavated sites places them in the Roman Iron Age, but earlier elements may be present. A similar Iron age/Romano-British site at Dinnington, unploughed for the last two decades is incomparably better preserved. Despite the disturbance the survey not only identified features associated with the enclosure, but also detected many external structures, including round-houses, field boundaries and pit alignments. The survey also identified medieval ridge and furrow and evidence of some possibly older field systems in all three fields investigated. A number of possible archaeologically significant features were detected within the adjacent fields (1 & 2). They appear to include a double pit alignment and a sub-rectilinear structure possibly associated with a round-house. In general the magnetometry survey recorded a more extensive settlement pattern than aerial photography had originally suggested. Magnetometry in this instance proved to be an appropriate technique to investigate the presence of buried features of cultural and archaeological significance. The presence of modern steel pipelines caused substantial interference within a large part of two fields within the survey area. However, it must be stressed that because of modern agricultural ploughing the remains are now quite attenuated and positive identification is difficult.",N 1852,"In all three areas surveyed, gradiometry has located a wealth of archaeological responses. Together, these show a triple-ditched elliptical enclosure, of c.400m at its long axis, containing a plethora of anomalies commensurate with intensive occupation. There are also suggestions of functional zonation within the enclosure, with pit-type anomalies showing perceptible concentrations. A number of enclosures, linear and curvilinear have been detected outside the multivallate defences. One of these outlying enclosures has been cut by the outermost ditch of the defences. Survey has also located a number of ferrous pipes/services and areas of magnetic disturbance and are attributed to modern causes.",N 1853,"A magnetometer survey was carried out over a small area of the interior of Ingleborough Hillfort in an attempt to better define occupation features and so give a greater insight into the nature of the site. Although only a fraction of the monument was surveyed, the lack of evidence for hearths appears to indicate that there was no long term occupation of the site.",Y 1854,"Geophysical surveys were carried out at the hillfort known as Bury Walls, Shropshire over two seasons in attempt to characterise this large monument and its role in the wider landscape. The results clearly show heavy terracing of the northern part of the hillfort and the later cutting of it by a dyke. Traces of occupation were harder to detect in the lower, more sheltered part of the hillfort, however the seismic surveys indicate a greater overburden of soil and rubble here.",Y 1855,"The complex history of the site is reflected in the geophysical survey results and, as a consequence, interpretation is particularly difficult. As a precursor to detailed gradiometer survey, scanning was undertaken and found large swathes of the investigation area to be magnetically disturbed. Detailed survey also recorded large zones of magnetic disturbance, particularly within the lawned area immediately to the north of the present buildings, and in the southern half of the area of grass to the north-west of the buildings. Nevertheless, survey detected a number of linear and pit-type anomalies of archaeological potential, these are concentrated in the northern portion of the field to the north-west of the extant buildings. Within the lawned area, possible archaeological responses have been noted but interpretation has been hampered by the magnetic disturbance. Several pit-type and linear responses have been detected in the southern end of the field to the east of the present buildings. The resistance survey over the lawned area has detected a plethora of high and low resistance anomalies which can be attributed to former buildings and garden features, such as paths. A low resistance anomaly which can be attributed to a modern drain has also been recorded. A number of more ambiguous responses cannot be firmly attributed to any one cause and may reflect natural or modern origins.",N 1875,"Before the draining of the levels in the medieval period, Marchey was an island known as Martinsey or Martin's Island which had early connections to Glastonbury Abbey. SMR entries of pottery finds suggest occupation of the site as early as the Roman period. In addition, earthwork remains also indicate a possible pre-10th century monastic enclosure. Therefore, following a desk-top assessment, a detailed measured earthwork survey has been undertaken alongside a resistivity survey. These combined have identified a boundary, internal platforms and a number of features including the location of a possible chapel. Unfortunately - possible due to the time of year - the resistivity results were not conclusive and so additional survey either at a greater resolution or utilising magnetometry might help to reveal more of this site.",Y 1876,"The geophysics has identified a few responses of archaeological potential, some of which proved on excavation to be associated with wall foundations, solid surfaces and a large inner bailey ditch. However, the majority of the results are too confused to be able to assign a definite interpretation. The work has also highlighted the difficulties of working within small, confined areas where no specific targets exist.",N 1877,"The various surveys and techniques undertaken have produced mixed reults. While some responses of interest have been noted within the motte, the results are confused by vegetation and earthworks. However, the survey evidence for the entrance was identified by ground penetrating radar. Many of the areas investigated were very small and the data complicated by modern material. The most clearly defined responses were within the garden of Bramblewood House where resistance survey identified structural remains associated with the former Manor House.",N 1896,"Although there are marked changes in the reseistance levels, the anomalies are generally poorly defined and lacking in any shape or archaeological form. There are a few clear, high resistance responses that appear to represent surviving wall foundations, but the results are confused and difficult to interpret. Given that trees have been uprooted, the ground consolidated and the park landscaped (J Butterworth pers comm.), it is not surprising that the geophysical results are confused. In addition, the Time Team trenches also revealed that excavations in the 1970's had been backfilled with rubble, and sheets of corrugated iron and plastic; these will have added to the noise in the data. On Binnewith Island, although the ground was not as badly disturbed, variations in the resistance readings were found to be the result of both archaeological and natural deposits, but not due to stone foundations. GPR located clear reflections which, upon excavation, proved to be associated with foundations of the chancel.",N 1897,"Detailed fluxgate magnetometry, resistivity, magnetic susceptibility and electromagnetic survey were conducted over an area around Beadlam Roman Villa. Several high temperature features were identified and interpreted as malting ovens. Other strongly magnetic anomalies are thought to relate to features connected with Roman iron smelting furnaces. The electromagnetic surveys sucessfully revealed archaeological anomalies, however it is thought that the exact nature of these would have been clearer had a multi-frequency instrument been available for use.",Y 1898,"The data are dominated by modern ploughing trends with some evidence of earlier cultivation, possibly ridge and furrow. The ring ditch, SM27194, recorded in Aps, has been successfully located, although there is some evidence of plough damage. In the southern section of the pipeline route a strong ditch type anomaly has been located, which is not visible on the AP transcripts. The two linear features visible in Aps aligned approximately east west have not been detected. Several pit type responses have been noted as being of possible archaeological interest. However, it seems likely that many of these are of natural origin reflecting pockets of magnetic gravels. This is supported by the increase in these responses to the south where the soil type changes to river terrace gravels.",N 1899,"A trial fluxgate gradiometer survey was conducted over an area of 6 hectares at the Roman town of Verulamium, St Albans, Herts. The aim of the survey was to test the response of the site to geophysical techniques in light of ongoing plough damage and reported seeding of the site with ferrous material to deter rogue metal detectorists. The survey proved highly successful and revealed a wealth of significant archaeological anomalies to enhance the aerial photographic record of the site. More limited earth resistance survey was focused over the location of suspected building remains previously revealed by either magnetic or aerial photographic surveys.",N 1900,"Magnetometer surveys were conducted over the South Street and Horslip long barrows, near Avebury, Wiltshire in order to locate them accurately on the ground in advance of their removal from cultivation. Although a response was recorded to the ditches at both sites, the magnetisation of these features was quite weak and few other significant anomalies were recorded.",N 1902,"A geophysical survey was carried out within the henge monument known as The Bull Ring in Dove Holes, Derbyshire. Both high resolution magnetometer and resistivity surveys were conducted, but neither revealed any trace of internal structures. The magnetic survey was hampered by modern disturbance, precluding the identification of even the known archaeology. The resistance survey was rather more successful, but did not conclusively reveal any further prehistoric features.",N 1903,"A trial Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) survey was conducted over a previously excavated Romano-Celtic temple and its surroundings in the central area of Silchester Roman Town (Calleve Atrebatum), Hampshire. Amplitude time slices created from the GPR data revealed a plethora of anomalies related to the original street pattern, several buildings and the remains of the temple. In addition, the GPR data allows the apparent vertical stratigraphy of the anomalies to be estimated and indicates the varying, near surface, preservation of the temple. The GPR data further complements information on the site recovered through excavation, aerial photography and a more extensive magnetometer survey.",N 1904,"The ground probing radar survey has been successful in identifying structures beneath the East Slype. No significant evidence has been seen in the radar data for the curved foundation wall, located to the east and south of the Chapter house, extending beneath the East Slype. However, two areas of complexity adjacent to the northern wall of the East Slype compare well to the extrapolated location of the curved wall. These areas of complexity are targets for further investigation. It is likely that the ground probing radar survey identified one, possibly two, culverts running along the length of the East Slype. This compares well with previous geophysical surveys undertaken in the adjacent cloisters. Discrete features have been observed which may relate to the construction of the culverts.",N 1919,"Three barrow sites, Salter's Pool, Lots Barn and Pinnock and Hyde, Gloucestershire, all in similar topographic and geological locations were surveyed using Magnetic Susceptibility (MS) and resistivity. The work formed part of a project into the use of MS in defining and characterising archaeological sites, with particular respect to ritual activity where burning may have caused magnetic enhancement. The surveys were also used to evaluate a prototype MS probe. This achieved successful readings over varied land surfaces. The results provide valuable supplementary information to the resistivity data and show evidence for discrete areas of enhancement around the barrows.",Y 1920,"Following the discovery of a Roman altar capital in about 1970 during gravel excavations on the banks of the River Esk near Longtown in Cumbria, a geophysical survey was carried out to try and establish whether crop marks visible in the adjacent field at Burnfoot Farm might be related to Roman occupation in the area. Unfortunately, only a very few anomalies were detected and it was not clear whether they relate to the crop marks. It is probable that this lack of success was due to the alluvial nature of the site.",N 1921,"Magnetic, earth resistance and electro-magnetic surveys were conducted over a total area of approx. 2.4ha over the site of the amphitheatre at Richborough, Kent, in an attempt to evaluate the use of these methods at this site and to define and de-limit the underlying structural remains. All the techniques responded well. The earth resistance data, in particular, indicates the buried features to be well preserved and of a much greater extent and complexity than recorded during antiquarian excavations in 1849.",N 1922,"A geophisical survey using magnetic, earth resistance and ground penetrating radar (GPR) techniques was conducted on the summit of Silbury Hill, Wiltshire, to investigate the area surrounding the recently collapsed remains of an antiquarian excavation shaft sunk by the Duke of Northumberland in 1776. It was hoped that the survey would revealevidence for any near-surface archaeological remains threatened by the continued collapse of the shaft and identify unstable areas of ground where further subsidence might be likely. Given the limited area available the results proved quite encouraging, with anomalies of interest identified in both the earth resistance and GPR data. However, these latter pit- and ditch-type anomalies do not appear to be related to the walled features recorded during the 1968 excavationon the summit of the monument. Results from the immediate vicinity of the collapse confirm the area of slumped grounds to the south side is highly unstable and liable to further subsidence at any time.",N 1923,"The ground probing radar survey has been successful in identifying structures beneath the refectory undercroft and land to the south of the refectory. These structures may relate to the archaeological features such as foundations and are targets for further investigation. An area of complexity has been identified at the eastern end of the survey area to the south of the refectory which is likely to represent mixed fill material. However, close inspection of the radar data has revealed some structures within the complexity which may be archaeological. The radar data shows evidence for services crossing the survey areas. In particular the drainage known to run east west across the southern survey area has been clearly seen by the radar. Further possible services have been pinpointed including the gas pipe observed during site work. Most of the highlighted services lie within 0.5m of the ground surface and extreme caution should be used when undertaking the development works.",N 1924,"A combined survey using the techniques of magnetometry and resistivity was carried out over an area proposed for the extension of the cemetery in Bourton-on-the-Water in Gloucestershire. The site has much archaeological potential sue to it being situated within the fortified Iron Age Salmonsbury Camp which contains evidence of occupation from the late Neolithic/early Bronze Age through to the Roman period. The results of both surveys showed a complex of anomalies relating to cut features with clear evidence of a rectilinear ditch possibly belonging to an internal enclosure.",N 1925,Ditch sysems enclosing probable occupation features have been recorded throughout the site. The anomalies are consistent in type and orientation with those recorded in previous surveys in adjacent fields. The densest concentrations of anomalies were located in the southernmost part of the survey area. These might be associated with settlement immediately inside the hillfort rampart ot they may be a consequence of former quarrying.,N 1926,"Surveys were carried out on three sites as part of a research project for an MSc dissertation. It was hoped that an evaluation into the application of GPR and electrical pseudosection might illustrate alternative, non-destructive, methods of investigating the structure of earthen ramparts and banks.

The extent, scale and plan of earthworks in the area of the Scheduled Ancient Monument has been established and, where possible, the nature of inter-relationships between the features identified. These earthworks include a trackway, enclosure, lynchets, woodbanks, ditches and areas of quarrying. The linear earthwork that delimits the southern boundary of the Scheduled Ancient Monument has been accurately identified, through both topographical and geophysical survey, as it crosses the area of the projected road. This feature has been interpreted as a woodbank and was the only definite archaeological feature detected within the proposed new road corridor. No other geophysical or topographical anomalies of a probable archaeological origin have been identified.",N 1948,"Geophysical survey was conducted in the interior of Cadbury Camp, North Somerset to determine the location of a possible blocked southern entrance and to map the distribution of internal features. The results show that earthworks in the interior of the hillfort have been eroded by unrecorded cultivation, but provide no real evidence for trackways leading to the south. There is a possibility that a later Roman fortlet occupied the highest part of the camp. It is hoped that a limited excavation could be conducted to evaluate some of the anomalies recorded in this survey.",Y 1949,"An analytical survey of the site was commisioned by English Heritage and undertaken in 1993 by John Samuels Archaeological Consultants.

No other anomalies of a probable archaeological origin were identified at any of the sites.",N 1951,"During May 2001, geophysical survey of approximately 900 square metres provided the basis for preliminary investigation of the bailey beyond the keep of Duffield Castle, Derbyshire. A successful earth resistance survey indicated a substantial building existed to the south west of the keep, most likely predating the castle. A magnetometer survey of the same area was mostly ineffective owing to a large amount of modern debris across the site.",N 1952,"Knollbury Camp Hillfort is a little known monument that has not been previously excavated. Geophysical survey was used to investigate its shape and wider context.

The results of the surveys indicate there is some survival of possible masonry structures in the area of the Bailey and that these may have a NE-SW orientation. A possible 'box' structure or arrangement of revetments within the material of the original Motte has been located. Possible structural remains were also interpreted in the area east of the Pinn River and close to the point where it is suggested that the remains of a Roman building were observed in the early part of the 20th century.",Y 1954,The results from the combined reesistivity and GPR survey correlated well to successfully locate numerous structures relating to the remains of the former Benedictine Abbey that once stood on the site. The foundations of walls can be seen showing the abbey church to have been much larger than at present.,N 1955,"Both geophysical techniques have provided evidence of possible former settlement at Court Knoll. The gradiometer survey revealed numerous anomalies of archaeological potential, some of which may indicate burnt features and areas of occupation. However, the levels of background magnetic fluctuation have made it difficult to discern any clear patterns in the results. The resistance survey detected several anomalies suggestive of structural remains and rubble spreads. Unfortunately, no clear plan of the structures could be identified due to an insufficient moisture contrast in the dry soils.",N 1956,"Magnetomter and resistivity surveys were conducted over an area north east of Chesters Roman Fort, Chollerford, Northumberland. Both techniques successfully detected a number of rectilinear features, possibly building foundations, and possibly more significantly, elements of the fort defensive ditches. Recommendations for further archaeological works have been outlined.",Y 1957,"A magnetic susceptibility (MS) survey was conducted over the interior and rampart of the univallate hillfort and approx four hectares of its unscheduled margins. The interior of the hillfort has been defined by the recording of strong readings here. Two discrete, similar areas occured outside the rampart, possibly indicating placement of habitation. Measurement of topsoil depth was also collected and provides a useful comparison to the patterning observed in the MS data. It is hoped that further gradiometry survey will aid the interpretation of the results.",Y 1958,"Although numerous reflections of likely archaeological interest are visible in the individual radargrams, the results from the time sliced data are not particularly coherent. While some of the responses may relate to the Roman forum, it is likely that many of these may be due to modern landscaping. There is a general area of increased response in the southern part of the survey area. This is likely to indicate a concentration of archaeological deposits. Again, there is no coherent form to the response and this suggests that the technique may simply be responding to a general spread of rubble of archaeological origin to the south of the cinema building.",N 1959,"The data collected using the 225 MHz antenna has proved successful in identifying anthropogenic features. Within Area A, which lies to the north of the cinema at the Lewis Lane end, discrete high amplitude reflections are clearly visible in the time slice data. These predominantly occur between approximately 1.35m and 2.16m beneath the current ground surface. Their depth, rectilinear form and alignment suggests they indicate structural remains of likely Roman origin. The data from Area B, which lies to the south of the cinema, are less clear. Although clear responses, which appear to correlate well with the projected Roman street and walls, are evident in the individual radargrams, the timeslice data does not produce particularly coherent image. There are, however, a number of discrete high amplitude reflections between approximately 1.08m and 1.62m. Although these are not as clearly defined as those seen in Area A, they could still represent accumulations of Roman material.",N 1960,"Magnetometer and resistivity surveys were conducted over part of the moated enclosure to identify any subsurface features. The earth resistance survey was the most successful, providing the most discernable features.

It was hoped that the survey would reveal evidence for any near-surface archaeological remains threatened by the continued collapse of the shaft and identify unstable areas of ground where further subsidence might occur. Three trial profiles were also carried out on the flank of the hill. This work was intended to augment previous geophysical survey carried out at Silbury Hill by the Centre for Archaeology in February 2001. The survey detected a number of anomalies on the summit of the hill, two of which corresponded to features detected in trial trenches dug in April 2001. However, the interpretation of other anomalies is equivocal, and the suggestion of a further possible shaft is very tentative. One of the profiles on the flanks of the hill was impaired by wire mesh that had been inserted into the turf to protect it from erosion. However, the profile over the top of the Merewether tunnel did suggest a less homogenous structure to the chalk, possibly due to the tunnelling.",N 1962,"A magnetometer survey of approximately 3.5 hectares was carried out around West Kennet long barrow, Wiltshire. It was hoped that the ditches and any associated features would be defined and located. The survey successfully identified the barrow ditches, but no other directly related responses. Some possible pits were located in dispersed groups to the east of the mound, and a large anomaly was recorded some 45m to the south of the barrow. The relationship of these various features to the barrow remains uncertain but would be worth further investigation.",N 1963,A geophysical survey was carried out around the henge monument at Arbor Low and the nearby barrow at Gib Hill. In both the magnetometer and resistance surveys several known features such as the henge ditch and linear dyke were identified; however the response from the underlying geology has been significant. Unfortunately no new features such as stone or even timber post settings were detected. The resistivity survey conducted around the mound at Gib Hill proved to be too limited to comprehend any significant contemporary features.,N 1964,"During the construction of a new access road at Bridge Farm at Lopen near Yeovil in Somerset, a substantial Roman mosaic was uncovered. Owing to the importance of the discovery, Somerset County Archaeological Unit began an immediate excavation on the site, which revealed the remains of a Roman villa. The Centre for Archaeology was requested to carry out a geophysical survey of the area surrounding the excavation to characterise the extent of the Roman site. The survey revealed a great deal of modern disturbance and few anomalies that could be ascribed an archaeological origin. Whilst one anomaly possibly indicative of a Roman building was detected, it appears that the geophysical techniques employed were not particularly responsive to archaeology under the prevailing soil and moisture conditions.",N 1965,"Geophysical survey of the north-east sector of Cissbury Ring, West Sussex, revealed little information of archaeological significance beyond that already known. The investigation of the internal area of the hillfort was hampered by surface vegetation and ferrous disturbance probably resulting from 20th-century military activity. Potentially of most archaeological interest are a series of positive magnetic anomalies detected along the line of the northern rampart that possibly indicate past burning of this structure. Pits and some linear features were also detected within the hillfort by the magnetometer. Such modest magnetic results seem to be consistent with those obtained on similar chalkland hillforts with well preserved earthwork evidence in their interiors. More limited earth resistance survey at Cissbury confirmed the outline of extant earthworks and added further detail to their plans. The clay-with-flints deposits on the higher parts of the hilltop have been defined by both surveys as an area of increased magnetic disturbance and reduced electrical resistance.Geophysical survey of the north-east sector of Cissbury Ring, West Sussex, revealed little information of archaeological significance beyond that already known.

The aim of the survey was to provide evidence of the precise form and extent of the monument to support a reassessment of the site by the Monuments Protection Programme for the purpose of reviewing the scheduled area. Despite a generally poor geophysical response, the survey successfully defined the layout of the monument in relation to Stane Street revealing that it is rather more regular and symmetricval in plan than previously thought. The survey also provided new detail of the form of the defensive earthworks and evidence of features in the interior although no clear indications of any substantial masonry buildings were detected. Archaeological activity in the form of ditches, pits and smaller enclosures was also shown to continue beyond the boundaries of the enclosed area to the east and west along the route of Stane Street. The survey thus significantly extends knowledge of a previously poorly understood Roman site of considerable importance.",N 1967,"A ground penetrating radar (GPR) survey covering an area of 1ha was conducted over the remains of the Roman amphitheatre at Richborough, Kent. The survey successfully identified anomalies related both to the structure of the monument and to more recent wartime activity at the site. Attenuation of the radar wave limited the depth penetration of the survey although more diffuse anomalies, possibly due to more substantial entranceways or towers within the amphitheatre walls, were detected to a depth of approximately 2.5m from the ground surface. No convincing evidence was revealed for any substantial activity pre-dating the amphitheatre.",N 1968,"The medieval bishops of Bath & Wells had a manor house at Blackford, in Wedmore parish, which was in use from at least the early fourteenth century until being demolished during the episcopate of John Harewell (1367-86). Some earthworks of a moat survive at the probable site of the manor house to the north of the village. These were recorded and a resistance survey of the site was carried out in November 2001. The fieldwork provided information on the position, size, layout and surrounds of the episcopal palace.",N 1969,"Three survey blocks within the proposed road corridor contain anomalies that are of definite archaeological interest. These include the continuation of a large settlement complex in Field 17 which was recorded in previous surveys. A clear ring ditch has also been located at the eastern end of the field. A 'bowl' barrow has been found in Field 79 and in Field 110 both a 'bowl' barrow and a section of 'The Avenue' associated with Stonehenge are clearly visible. Additionally, a number of possible relict field systems have been identified within a number of the survey areras as well as some evidence of ridge an furrow cultivation. A possible oval ditach is visible in Field 21 along with associated ditch and pit type responses. A 'C' shaped enclosure ditch recorded in Field 64 also may be significant, but is unlikely to relate to settlement activity. Weak linear trends and pit type anomalies have been identified in all of the survey areas. Some of these responses may indicate features of archaeological interest, although it is equally likely that they are the result of more recent agricultural activity or natural variations in the subsoil.",N 1970,"Survey has recorded a number of anomalies of potential archaeological interest, in particular evidence for a rectangular enclosure to the southwest of the main settlement site. The responses are likely to relate to a relict field system. Viewing the results of all the data from previous and current surveys ut us now possible to show the limits of the core occupation activity of the Iron Age Romano-british settlement found in Field 17 during earlier survey.",N 1971,"The extent of Riverside Villa and associated buildings was investigated through a number of sources including SMR, aerial photographs and OS maps. New work was also conducted in the form of geophysical and earthwork surveys. The earthwork survey indicated areas of archaeological potential, but did not define any obvious remains. The magnetometer and resistivity surveys detected a number of large scale anomalies in an alignment suggestive of association to the villa.",Y 1972,"Both gradiometer and resistance survey successfully identified the location and extent of the barrow ditches of the long barrow. The results indicate that the eastern end of the barrow is likely to have been severely damaged or destroyed by the trackway that runs north-south immediately to the east of the monument. In addition to two well defined ditch responses in the gradiometer data, a number of other possible arechaeological type responses have been identified. The resistance data illustrates the damaging effect of ploughing on the monument.",N 1973,"Geophysical and some topographic surveys were conducted at Sherton, Durham in advance of proposed works associated with the sewage works. Both techniques identified a number of archaeological features including hollow ways, ridge and furrow, possible flood bank defences and boundary ditches. It is recommended that trial trenching may be required to investigate some of these features further.",Y 1974,"Magnetometer surveys were carried our in the North Field, west of the new visitors' centre at Sutton Hoo, as well as the area immediately north of the Anglo-Saxon tumuli. The work was prompted by the recent discovery of Anglo-Saxon cremations and inhumations during the construction of the centre and the concern that the extents of both this new burial ground and the known area areoung the upstanding tumuli may not be accurately known. There was also interest in testing whether the newer generation of caesium vapour magnetometers mights prove more sensitive to archaeological features than precious geopphysical techniques employed at the site. Hence, both caesium and fluxgate instruments were used to carry out the surveys.",N 1975,"An earth resistance survey was conducted over the possible location of an aisled house associated with the Honeyditch Villa. Significant anomalies are thought to represent a possible Iron Age round house, ancient field boundaries and a building which may be the aisled structure.",Y 1976,"An earth resistance survey was conducted over the head and feet areas of the Long Man of Wilmington to attempt to ascertain the original outline of this figure before it was outlined with bricks in 1874. Previous survey data, collected in 1969 by Ken Gravett (see Holden 1971), was also re-proccessed and plotted with current computer applications as part of this work. Analysis of the data has indicated possible new outlines for the original form of the Long Man - primarily around the head and feet although results are not always clear.",Y 1977,A magnetic susceptibility (MS) survey was conducted on the interior of Beckbury Camp Hillfort using both a prototype microprobe inserted into augered holes and a 2D loop. The results from the former instrument highlight two zones of activity within the hillfort. This pattern much less detailed when data is collected with a standard field loop.,Y 1978,"During scanning a generally quiet magnetic response was measured across the five areas. No anomalies were noted over or around tumulus SM29061, however, a number of responses of possible interest were detected approximately 60m to the east. Elsewhere, scanning found few discrete anomalies but ill-defined zones of fluctuating response were detected and marked for detailed survey. Detailed survey over and around tumulus SM29061 detected no anomalies characteristically associated with a barrow. A number of trends and ill-defined responses have been recorded in the vicinity of the tumulus but these could equally be natural or agricultural. A group of amorphous pit-type responses have been recorded c.60m east of the tumulus. On the basis of their form alone they would all be viewed as probably natural in origin. However, the stronger magnetic response from a few may indicate an archaeological explanation but this is cautious. Between this group of anomalies and the tumulus, two parallel linear responses have been noted and may also be archaeological, although an agricultural explanation cannot be excluded. Survey has also recorded a few isolated and minor pit-type anomalies, trends and natural anomalies.",N 1979,"Roman masonry was unexpectedly discovered at Groundwell Ridge to the north of Swindon in 1996 when building work for a new housing development started, close to earthworks thought to be of medieval date. Geophysical survey by the Ancient Monuments Laboratory and subsequent limited excavations suggested a high status establishment such as a villa of some pretension or a religious complex. As a result, the remains were scheduled as an Ancient Monument, and the site was purchased and transferred to Swindon Borough Council. An area of some 5.7ha is now protected from development and it is proposed that the site be preserved as a public open space. As a result, the geophysical survey team from the Centre for Archaeology was asked to return to the site and extend the geophysical survey to cover this entire area. The survey results suggest that, whilst Roman activity in the form of masonry buildings, enclosures and ditches was concentrated towards the centre of the site, archaeological remains are likely to extend across other parts of the protected area. However, the magnetometer and earth resistance surveys appear to be responding to different features, often superimposed, hinting at more than one phase of activity on the ridge.",N 1980,"Scanning identified a number of anomalies of potential archaeological interest within the application area, most convincing were a concentration of responses within the northern field (the Scheduled Ancient Monument). Subsequent detailed survey in the northern field revealed two clear enclosures with some evidence of internal divisions. The results appear to correlate well with the cropmark evidence, although there are differences, specifically inside the enclosures. The shape and form of the responses area suggestive of an Iron Age/Romano-British settlement. Survey within the southern field revealed a linear and curvilinear anomaly that could be associated with a possible trackway and enclosure noted on the cropmarks. However, the responses are weak and so their interpretation is cautious. Several other potential anomalies have been noted, but their weak and indistinct nature suggests that they could easily be natural or modern in origin. Several parallel trends in the data are considered to be the result of modern ploughing. Except for the main enclosure ditches, many of the recorded anomalies are comparatively weak. This could be due to the relatively poor nature of the soils which has resulted in a lack of magnetic enhancement or alternatively, the truncation of features by ploughing.",N 1981,"Survey has identified a broad high and low resistance linear response that could potentially be associated with a bank and ditch. However, the anomaly appears to coincide with an old field boundary noted on the Ordnance Survey map and, as such, could relate to this feature. Several small discrete areas of high resistance visible in the data could be of interest and indicate the presence of structural remains. However, the anomalies have no clear archaeological form and their interpretation is cautious. The remainder of observed responses are considered to be natural, modern or the result of recent agricultural activity.",N 1982,"The survey results, at present interpreted relative to the medieval period, appear to illustrate the development of the site from the Iron Age onwards, illustrated by structures representative of domestic/commercial occupation, burial and possible defences.",N 1983,The magnetometer survey located areas of magnetic debris of which some may relate to remains of structures. The resistivity survey located the remains of a building along with linear features which may be walls.,N 1984,"A geophysical survey was conducted over the site of a suspected prehistoric enclosure identified from aerial photographs at Crasken Farm, Helston, Cornwall, threatened by development proposals. The site lies immediately to the North of a wider landscape of archaeological activity including the Crasken Round scheduled ancient monument, annex enclosures associated with this Round and an additional prehistoric enclosure. The soil mark identified at the Crasken Farm site is similar to the dimensions of Crasken Round and may well represent an equally significant archaeological feature. To investigate this further a magnetometer survey was conducted over ~4ha of the site and successfully identified a number of linear and circular anomalies. However, the location of the soil mark failed to produce a corresponding magnetic anomaly.",N 1985,"Magnetometer survey was conducted over an area of 18.7 ha at Richborough, Kent, during 2001, and has demonstrated the survival of an extensive and complex pattern of settlement activity, roadways and enclosures. There is an emphasis of activity to either side of Watling Street and ribbon development is apparent along other roadways. Areas with noticeably weaker magnetic responses seem to be associated with outlying field systems. The evidence for structural remains is poor however, and a pilot earth resistance survey did not clearly define any building foundations. Future fieldwork should include more extended coverage by both methods, to locate structural remains and to fully define the limits of settlement activity.",N 1986,"After a hoard of Roman coins was discovered at Shapwick in Somerset in 1998, archaeological investigations, including geophysical survey by the Ancient Monuments Laboratory, revealed the location to be the site of an extensive Roman villa. The original survey covered an area of some 4 ha around the find spot and a wealth of linear anomalies was detected which continued beyond the survey area. Hence, the present survey was intended to extend the previous magnetometer survey to cover the whole of the field in which the villa was discovered as well as the field to the east. The present work has identified the continuation of some major ditch anomalies to the north and identified the probable northern boundary to the site. Further anomalies likely to represent enclosure and boundary ditches have also been detected to the south and east. These diminish in spatial density and peak magnetic intensity with increasing distance from the villa site, suggesting that the location of the villa was the principal focus of Roman activity at the site.",N 1987,"Magnetometer survey of the interior of the Iron Age hillfort at Castle Hill, carried out as a training exercise in conjunction with The Northmoor Trust, has revealed a considerable amount of new information on the internal character of the site. The most notable result of the survey is the detection of a previously unknown inner ditch circuit encircling the highest ground within the centre of the fort. Plentiful evidence of occupation was also detected in the fort including a series of large rectangular positive anomalies of unusual form and appearance as well as scattered pit-type anomalies. Further linear anomalies around the periphery of the site may represent soil build-up against the internal face of the inner rampart resulting from down-slope soil movement, or evidence of a second hitherto unrecognised enclosure circuit of disjointed form.",N 1988,"Geophysical and topographical surveys were carried out over the long barrow at Tenantry Farm, Rockbourne, Hampshire (Monument No. 12096). Both magnetometer and earth resistance surveys successfully defined both the barrow ditches and the barrow mound. A possible internal structure was also revealed. The topographical survey showed that the barrow was still eroding ten years after the previous survey, and that the rate of erosion appeared to be steady. The topographical survey also provided firm geo-referencing for all the survey data.",N 1989,"Magnetometer and earth resistance surveys were conducted over the outer bailey and lower court areas at Framlingham Castle, Framlingham, Suffolk. Results were mixed, but most notably confirmed the presence of buried walls under the banks of the lower court.",N 1990,"Pilot magnetometer, magnetic susceptibility and earth resistance surveys were conducted over the site of a known wooden causeway in peaty soils at Fiskerton, Lincolnshire. Results were ambiguous, seemingly with a greater response to geomorphology than to archaeology. There was no trace of the causeway or activity associated with it and it is unlikely that other similar features can be recorded elsewhere in the valley with these techniques.",N 1991,"Earth resistance and magnetometer surveys were conducted over the suspected site of a manorial complex and church at Botolph Bridge, Cambridgeshire. Results were limited, indicating only sparse structural remains despite excavation evidence to the contrary.",N 1992,"A limited trial GPR survey was conducted over two areas within the Danegate carpark, Lincoln, prior to the redevelopment of the site for the new City and County museum. Significant archaeological remains, including footings for the original Roman City walls, exist under the carpark site and it was hoped that a GPR survey would identify their location. Unfortunately, due to interference from the modern carpark structure few, if any, significant anomalies could be identified from the survey data.",N 1993,"Wharram Percy in the Yorkshire Wolds is indubitably the best-known example of a deserted medieval village in Britain. Its renown is due, in no small part, to the programme of excavations conducted by the Wharram Percy Research Project over forty years between 1950 and 1990. These excavations have revealed that the development of the medieval village was much more complex than was originally envisaged, with antecedents in the late Iron Age, Roman and Anglo-Saxon periods. Much information concerning this research has already been published but a synthetic volume is now in preparation that is intended to provide an overview of the project?s findings (Wrathmell and Clark, Forthcoming). The Archaeometry Branch has had a long history of involvement with the Wharram Percy Research Project and has provided geophysical surveys in advance of excavation over much of the site, the last work being carried out in 1989. However, these surveys have concentrated on the northern and central areas of the medieval village. On reassessing the geophysical evidence in preparation for the publication, it was realised that its conclusions could be strengthened if magnetometer survey coverage were extended to the southern part of the site. As previous magnetometer surveys had been carried out with less sensitive instruments and using several grid alignments, it was considered that the best way to achieve this end was to undertake a new survey that would cover all the open parts of the village site on a single survey grid. The Archaeometry Branch thus visited Wharram Percy in September 2002 for this purpose. This fieldwork has resulted in a new magnetic map of Wharram Percy revealing an impressive range of anomalies likely to be of an archaeological origin. Where the 2002 survey covers areas surveyed in earlier years, it has successfully relocated the anomalies previously detected, often defining them with greater resolution. As these earlier results have not all been formally reported, they are included here for the purpose of comparison. Although features dating to all periods of occupation at the site have been detected, the survey has been most informative with regard to the pre-medieval settlement. In general, the pre-medieval features have not survived topographically and are often overlain by medieval earthworks. Hence, in unexcavated areas, magnetometer survey has revealed their presence for the first time. The opportunity has also been taken to test the potential of earth resistance and ground penetrating radar survey over small trial areas at the site. The results suggest that these techniques are also extremely responsive to the buried remains and can provide complementary evidence to that revealed by magnetic survey.",N 1994,"Magnetometer and earth resistance surveys were conducted around the findspot of a rare Bronze Age gold cup in January 2002. Both surveys provided good correlation with aerial photographic evidence and the resistance survey further highlighted the presence of a possible barrow associated with the find. Despite subsequent excavation, other anomalies have remained enigmatic.",N 1995,"A geophysical survey was conducted over ~3 ha of agricultural land to the east of the village of Crowland, Lincs., a dormitory commuter village close to Peterborough. The aim of the combined magnetometer and earth resistance survey was to investigate the immediate surroundings of a masonry building identified from aerial photographs and believed to be the isolated abode of St. Guthlac, hermit of Crowland. It was hoped that the geophysical survey might reveal evidence to support documentary sources suggesting these medieval remains might be constructed over a former Bronze age barrow and incorporate elements of a Roman building too. Unfortunately, no such evidence was revealed by the geophysical survey although an intriguing distribution of enhanced magnetic responses was revealed that is suggestive of either recent ferrous debris or more significant semi-industrial activity, such as metal working, at the site.",N 1996,"A limited trial GPR survey was conducted over well preserved building remains revealed during a previous geophysical survey covering an apparent complex of Roman activity discovered, unexpectedly, at Groundwell Ridge to the north of Swindon in 1996. Despite unfavourable, clay-rich soil conditions the GPR survey provided a detailed plan of the Roman remains to a depth of approximately 1m, confirming their survival in the very near surface. The GPR results complement the previous earth resistance and magnetic surveys and together the data suggests the presence of a high status Roman building possibly incorporating thermoremanent features, for instance associated with a hypocaust system.",N 1997,"A limited Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) survey was conducted within the ground floor of the Marlipins museum, an historic building dating from C12th found on the New Shoreham High St., currently undergoing extensive refurbishment. The GPR survey was requested to confirm whether an in-filled vaulted structure observed beneath the ground floor level of the exterior north elevation continued under the building. Unfortunately, no reliable evidence for the continuation of the vaulted structure was revealed by the GPR data due to a combination of the restricted area available for the survey and the presence of multiple airwaves reflected from construction equipment within the building.",N 1998,"A limited trial GPR survey was conducted over the suspected course of a wooden causeway buried within peaty soils close to the village of Fiskerton, Lincolnshire. Anomalies identified within the GPR data correlate directly with responses recorded by previous magnetic and earth resistance surveys conducted over the same area, although none of these are related to the location of the causeway itself. The failure of geophysical techniques to identify the timber causeway may be due either to the slight physical contrast between the organic remains and the surrounding peaty soil or, perhaps, the destruction of the monument through recent agricultural activity.",N 1999,"Magnetometer, magnetic susceptibility and earth resistance surveys were conducted over the site of two round barrows in part of a suspected round barrow cemetery to the west of Fiskerton, Lincolnshire. Results generally corroborated aerial photographic evidence although contributed to the uncertainty of the interpretation of one of the presumed barrows.",N 2000,"This resistivity survey carried out in the grounds of Torre Abbey produced a number of findings which are likely to relate to structures within the monastic precinct. Features detected by the survey include ranges of buildings which are likely to indicate a farmyard to the south of the surviving barn. Part of the site is currently a golf course, and detailed interpretation is hindered in places by high readings from the sandy bunkers, but additional wall footings appear to survive at several locations. Linear and rectilinear features can be seen, particularly to the south of the 18thC house (now the museum), which occupies the site of the abbey.",N 2001,"This survey was carried out to investigate the site of a suspected Roman building and its surroundings. A resistivity survey showed strong disturbances at a location corresponding to the assumed site of the building, as indicated by previous surface finds. This part of the site did not, however, produce any substantial magnetic response of the kind to be expected from building debris which could include tiles or a hypocaust. A possibility therefore remains that the resistivity findings are partly or wholly non-archaeological in origin, and that any structural remains which are present lie further to the east in a part of the site which produced a number of magnetic anomalies. A more extensive resistivity survey would be needed to test this possibility.",N 2002,"A possible Roman villa has been identified at the Sherwood Drive playing field site from aerial photographs. Magnetometer and resistivity surveys were carried out to test for evidence of the villa, but both showed strong interference from pipes, land drains and landscaping. Some archaeological features may be present, but there were few relevant findings in the vicinity of the villa. The low and uniform magnetic susceptibility readings suggest that the magnetometer response from the site is likely to be weak, and also leaves open the possibility that the site has been levelled with imported overburden. This would obscure and weaken the both the magnetometer and resistivity response from any underlying archaeological features.",N 2003,"The area surrounding the remains of a medieval chapel, which was previously found in a pipe trench, was investigated by resistivity and magnetometer surveying. A number of resistivity anomalies were detected, together with linear magnetic anomalies possibly indicating ditches or channels. The distribution of resistivity findings suggests that remains of other structures forming part of the medieval hospital complex are likely to be present within the survey area, but their disturbed and amorphous character would be consistent with the effects of suspected deep ploughing at the site. It may be the case that intact wall footings survive only at a depth greater than the depth of penetration of the survey (c. 0.5m).",N 2004,"This magnetometer survey was carried out to test for evidence of archaeological features in an area within the hillfort which is planted with fruit trees. The results from transects surveyed between the lines of trees were obscured in part by magnetic interference, but otherwise showed few positive findings. A further sample area was surveyed on adjacent open ground, where a number of magnetic anomalies were detected. There is no clear correlation between magnetometer and susceptibility results, as would be expected if substantial ancient settlement remains were present within the area of the survey, but the possibility that some of the magnetometer findings could be of archaeological origin cannot be wholly excluded on the survey evidence alone.",N 2005,"Earth resistance and ground penetrating radar (GPR) surveys were conducted over two areas at West Heslerton, North Yorkshire, believed to contain Roman building remains. Ambiguous results within the first area, where no previous geophysical survey had been conducted, led to investigation in the vicinity of a second, previously excavated Roman shrine to determine the geophysical response of such a known structure. Whilst a subtle GPR response was associated with an area adjacent to the location of the excavated structure, no further evidence for similar building remains was revealed in either the earth resistance or GPR the survey.",N 2006,"TimeScape Surveys were commissioned by the Archaeological Practice, University of Newcastle on behalf of Northumberland National Park to conduct magnetometry and resistivity geophysical survey at Harehaugh Hill Fort, Holystone, Northumberland. This report presents both the results of the survey and some conclusions derived form the geophysical anomalies identified by the survey. Recommendations for further archaeological works are also outlined. Previous survey work and excavation at Harehaugh suggested a much earlier, perhaps Neolithic occupation of the site. The fort appears to have had at least two, but very probably more phases of construction. What is evident from the geophysical survey results is that the western portion of the fort is more disturbed than the east. The exception appears to be the highest part of the fort towards the western ramparts and this area is relatively undisturbed. Three ditches were detected within the central area of the fort, which follow the alignment of the single earthwork depicted on the RCHME survey. Only the central ditch seems to continue south to form a contiguous feature with the southern defences. Evidence for hut circles, whether constructed from stone or timber is not conclusive. The appearance of the eastern sector suggests an agricultural or pastoral function, supported by the presence of a possible enclosure. Evidence for a small rectilinear building structure was also confirmed. A Neolithic origin is feasible, possible commencing as a small ritual enclosure positioned on the highest point within the fort and delimited by a single bank and ditch. A ditch and rampart may have followed the path of the western defences, but incorporated a larger area delineated by the central earthwork. The defences could reasonably be described as a defended homestead, possibly with origins in the Bronze Age. Multivallation may have commenced in the western sector and building on the central rampart discontinued in favour of the provision of a bivallate defensive system further east. The form and location of the entrances is somewhat problematic. There is some evidence to suggest that a staggered northern entrance may have provided access late in the fort's history. The present track respects a central entrance in the middle of the fort, but the eastern and western breaks within the defences are probably relatively modern. It is also felt that some of the defences to the north and south have been eroded and considerable elements of the fort have been lost. Although the archaeo-geophysical surveys have revealed a great deal about the interior of the hillfort, they have also posed additional questions. The constructional sequence has not been determined satisfactorily by geophysical survey. Additional targeted survey at the site, although difficult because of the terrain may reveal if the ditches across the outer entrances were discontinuous. Targeted excavation should be considered especially in those areas most at risk from erosion.",N 2007,"A magnetometer survey was conducted over an area of cropmarks showing a complex ditch system surrounding a trapezoidal ditch structure south west of the temple and west of the theatre sites at Gosbecks, Essex. The survey confirmed the location of the trapezoidal structure - believed to be the core of Cunobelin's farmstead - and various other cropmark features as well as revealing several new features.",Y 2008,"A magnetometer survey was conducted on available land within the remaining precinct walls of the Benedictine Abbey of St John, Colchester, Essex, in an attempt to locate foundations of the abbey and associated buildings. Due to considerable modern disturbance, those areas that were surveyable were affected by ferrous debris and underground pipes. However, two walls were identified.",Y 2009,"A resistivity survey of part of the precinct of the residence of the medieval bishops of Bath and Wells at Wookey, Somerset (SAM 27961) was carried out in May 2002. An area south of Abbey Close between Court farmhouse and Preywater Road had not been examined when other geophysical work was undertaken in 1995 and 1998 and it was hoped that the new survey might pipoint the line of the moat and shed further light upon the layout of this important site. Several anomalies of likely archaeological significance were discovered although their identification was not straightforward. Part of the western arm of the moat, apparently filled with rubble, may have been picked up by the geophysics and two possible buildings and a subdividing wall were located.",N 2010,"The combined survey techniques of magnetometry and resitivity located several different anomalies relating to present day and recent history cultivation and landscaping. Although the magnetometer data showed up mainly buried ferrous material and surface metal debris it did produce a linear anomaly running across the area thought to belong to the ferrous pipe. The resistivity data showed several potential pathways and cultivated allotments alongwith the probable location of buried rubbish. With the correlation of the potential buried rubbish and other discrete anomalies, the results have shown the complementary nature of magnetometry and resistivity.",N 2011,"Both the gradiometer and the resistivity were used to survey a 28m diameter round mound. As the mound was in a poor state of repair, with old badger sets and rabbit burrows, the results were compromised. The large badger set and rabbit burrows were all picked out by the resistivity, as were a couple of interesting anomalies, but the gradiometer did not pick up a great deal of spikes. Only through further research and excavation can accurate information be gained. The profile of the mound does fit with prehistoric ditched bowl barrows known from the late Neolithic and Early Bronze Age though. Finds from the mound include a polished stone axe from the Neolithic, group XV petrologically.

Although areas of disturbance were recorded by both techniques, no conclusive evidence was found to confirm the presence of buried timbers.",Y 2019,"Surveys on the Devil's Mouth linear earthworks and Shooter's Hut disc barrow were conducted as part of the ""Time Detectives"" public event, and to better define and locate features within and without the known monuments. At Devil's Mouth the linear earthwork can be demonstrated to continue through the car park. It is also possible to suggest there may have been a gap in the earthwork near to where it crosses Burway Road. At Shooter's Hut Disc Barrow the line of the boundary bank was defined by resistivity, although magnetometry proved to be less successful.",Y 2020,"Survey at both locations has been severely hampered by overgrown vegetation and the small size of the area available for investigation. At the Long Barrow the geophysical results can tentatively be interpreted as indicating some form of structure within the monument, as indicated by both the magnetic and resistance results. The survey results at the lynchets site seen merely to reflect the visible earthworks. No other anomalies of archaeological interest were identified in this area.",N 2021,The survey showed that remains of features indicative of walls are situated beneath the current surface of Bermondsey Square being part of medieval or Victorian buildings. The area has a general complexity that signifies rubble or infill from demolition work. Within this complexity a number of discrete features have been identified. Underlying surfaces have been discovered. In the graveyard a surface indicates a possible medieval date.,N 2022,A geophysical (resistance) survey was carried out in the upper and lower outer baileys of Pontefract Castle. The upper outer bailey contained areas of high resistance that are probably caused by rubble from the 1649 demolition work and possible the buried remains of the north-eastern tower of the main gatehouse. High resistance linear anomalies were also present in this area that may indicate the presence of other structural remains.,N 2023,A geophysical (fluxgate gradiometer and earth resistance) survey covering approximately 0.2 hectares was carried out within the Scheduled Ancient Monument of Sandal Castle. No significant archaeological remains were detected by the survey.,N 2024,"An area to the south-west of Badbury Rings, known to incorporate Roman buildings, ditches and a temple was surveyed with both magnetometry and resistivity prior to being covered with a wire mesh to prevent metal detecting and burrowing by rabbits and moles. Both surveys were very successful in locating and identifying various archaeological features from Bronze Age to late Romano-British in date.",Y 2025,The interpretation of the resistivity survey results suggests that anomalies of 'potential archaeological interest' have been located within the survey area. There are several circular anomalies apparent as low resistance and suggest ditch type features which could be of archaeological interest. There are many other low resistance anomalies which may also be ditch type features. Honnington Camp would benefit greatly from further study and investigation through further geophysical prospection and restricted research excavation which should hopefully achieve positive identification of the anomalies and obtain secure context dating evidence for both the camp and it's purpose. There are several distinct anomalies which could be of archaeological interest.,N 2026,"A fluxgate magnetometer survey of a large sub-rectangular enclosure on Fullerton Down, was carried out ahead of research excavation by the Danebury Environs Roman programme. Although known from aerial photography and surface finds of Romano-British pottery, the enclosure had not previously been studied in detail. The magnetometer survey produced very clear results that considerably improve understanding of the form and layout of the site and the activity within. The data indicates a sub-rectangular enclosure approximately 2 hectares in extent defined by a substantial ditch up to 4m wide in places. Internal anomalies suggest the presence of extensive quarry features and pits. The enclosure is entered by track-ways defined by parallel ditches at the north-east and south-west and a possible second phase of smaller enclosures may be present aligned on the north-east track-way. The detailed information provided by the survey will contribute to the design of an excavation strategy which will form the basis of the subsequent excavation in August 2003.",N 2027,"This project presents the results of geophysical and topographic surveys conducted on land at The Castle, Castle Eden, in advance of a proposed access road development. The works were commissioned by Mr AH Gilman and conducted by Archaeological Services University of Durham (ASUD) in accordance with a brief provided by Durham County Council Archaeological Section. A number of features of probable archaeological origin were detected, including former trackways, ditches and ridge and furrow cultivation.",N 2028,"A high density magnetic susceptibility survey was conducted over the interior of Windrush Hillfort, Gloucestershire, to supplement gradiometer data already collected. The values recorded here were low in comparison to other hillforts examined by the author. The results also suggest divisions of activity within the interior of the monument.",Y 2029,"A magnetic susceptibility survey was conducted over the interior of the Farmington Norbury hillfort, Gloucestershire. Three main zones of activity were determined, suggesting the focus for habitation and dumping/burning within the hillfort.",Y 2030,"The geophysical data collected at Bitton Camp have revealed few anomalies of archaeological interest. The resistance data revealed no evidence for planned use of the interior of the site. Further more evidence was collected that suggested that the camp should be interpreted as part of a larger earthwork. The magnetic data revealed many strong anomalies that are the result of modern debris. Of interest is the general lack of settlement type anomalies. Taken as a whole the geophysical data does not support the use of the site as a Roman camp. The most likely interpretation for the data is that the camp is part of a larger series of boundaries and they are probably agricultural i.e. not settlement in origin.",N 2031,"This survey, commissioned by the Senhouse Museum Trustees, represents the largest geophysical survey conducted on the Northern Roman Frontier. The survey confirmed the presence of a large vicus to the north-east of the fort. A large proportion of the buildings detected appear to have been for industrial use. Evidence for a substantial road leading to Barney Gill implies a direct relationship between the fort and the harbour. Other archaeological features detected include an enclosed Iron Age settlement and a group of possibly medieval stone building foundations.",Y 2032,"An area to the north-west of the fort was surveyed using magnetometry in an attempt to establish if the remains of any Roman settlement existed in this area. Evidence of a possible building may have been revealed in the north of the survey area, however, later industrial activity is also evident here. Several ditches may represent an annex to the fort, or an earlier phase of its construction.",Y 2033,"Recent land use as well as the limited size of two of the survey areas presented complications for both resistance and magnetic gradiometry. Area 2, which encompassed a former railway station, was generally and severely magnetically disturbed. Areas 3 and 4 (the motte and Lady's Walk respectively) were limited in size, which places constraints on the interpretation of the data. Nevertheless, the two techniques have located several anomalies which are of archaeological potential. These included responses suggestive of structures, ditches, pits, fired remains/hearths and former garden features.",N 2034,"A combination of magnetometry and earth resistance surveys were used to cover an area to the west and south of the fort at Housesteads to inform English Heritage's Fort Management Plan. The earth resistance survey has defined the line of the road with drainage ditches between the fort and the Military Way as well as possible buildings on the south side of the road. The magnetometer survey has recorded ditches enclosing buildings to the south of the fort. The line of the current footpath south of the fort is clearly visible and it is possible that this is damaging part of the vicus remains.",Y 2035,"Anomalies of interest have been detected in the survey to the north of the Church. The 1884 field boundary is visible, although there is little correlation with the 1884 building. Several anomalies have been detected that may relate to the remains of priory buildings that lay on the north side of the church. Survey within the walled garden produced unexpected results. Although only garden features were anticipated, clearer anomalies are evident. In particular, two relatively well defined high resistance linears suggest former walls or paths. These could be associated with a formal garden layout, but one of the linears has an alignment (NW-SE) which could indicate a path or wall associated with the priory precinct.",N 2036,"Fluxgate gradiometer and earth resistance surveys were conducted within the central henge of the Neolithic monument complex at Thornborough, North Yorkshire. Both techniques successfully located the terminals of the henge inner ditch, and the position of a portion of the cursus ditch which runs within the henge. In addition, a pit and associated ditch-like anomalies were detected, along with a number of anomalies interpreted as being due to local variations in drift geology. Due to the small size of the survey area, limited archaeological information can be extracted. However, if this survey is expanded and taken with previous geophysical survey results from the southern henge, this would provide a valuable source of information to the study of this important monument complex.",N 2037,"A 2D seismic survey was conducted in the Wool and Winfrith area of Dorset by IMC Geophysics Ltd on behalf of Bow Valley Petroleum (UK) Ltd to map rock structure as part of an appraisal of the area for oil and gas deposits.

An array of archaeological features, previously unrecorded were detected especially to the north east of the northern henge.",Y 2039,"The survey combined the complementary techniques of magnetometry and resistivity. The magnetometer survey showed much magnetic debris across the site of which some may relate to remains of brick walls and drains. The resistivity survey successfully located former garden features, particularly associated with the half moon garden. The western walls from the 1793 plan were also located.",N 2040,"An earth resistance survey, covering approximately 0.75 hectares, was carried out at Rothwell Manor, a Scheduled Ancient Monument. High resistance linear anomalies defining the outline of a rectangular structure, thought to be the manor chapel, have been identified in the area immediately surrounding the only surviving upstanding masonry. Other high resistance linear anomalies suggest the presence of additional in-situ walls/structures. Areas of very variable resistance to the north of the survey area are indicative of made ground, probably resulting from landscaping of the adjacent colliery tip or the demolition of Manor Farm. Other areas of high resistance are probably also due to modern activity. Two low resistance linear anomalies are thought to locate modern services.",N 2041,"This report describes an extension of previous magnetometer survey conducted over a trapezoidal ditched enclosure to the SW of the Roman Fort. Although no clarification was made over the possible entrance to this enclosure, a trackway and complex pattern of smaller enclosures to the south of the main one have been recorded.",Y 2042,"A magnetometer survey was conducted in four areas adjacent to Hartpury Court in Gloucestershire in attempt to locate evidence of medieval settlement in the area. The results general support the findings of a previous earthwork survey. Additionally a large pit or possible well has been located along with a number of minor ditches.",Y 2043,An earth resistance survey was conducted over a slightly raised linear bank at Swine Castle Hill as part of an undergraduate project. As well as recording land drains a possible road was also interpreted.,Y 2044,"Electrical resistance survey at the site of Kirkby Thore Roman Fort has located the perimeter of the fort and provided an indication of the layout of the interior. Evidence was poor, however, for buildings within the fort which may be due to damage from ploughing and stone robbing. The presence of a town to the northwest of the fort was also investigated but not substantiated.",N 2045,"An investigation using Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) has been carried out over a section of the A4144 Abingdon Road, Oxford. The purpose of this survey was to locate the remains of the Grandpont Causeway (SAM 21757), to aid the targeting of archaeological trial trenches, prior to reconstruction of the A4144. The survey was carried out on 20th and 21st February 2003 using a GSSI SIR 10H digital radar system coupled to antennae operating at centre frequencies of 1500MHz, 900MHz and 400MHz. Data was collected along a series of transverse profiles at 2m intervals, and along both wheel paths, in both directions longitudinally along the Abingdon Road. A feature consistent with the causeway was resolved over c.334m of the pavement at an average depth of 1.005m (+/-0.17m). The recorded feature appears narrower than the remains expected from the desk based review of the site (Babtie Group, 2002), possibly due to lateral truncation at an unknown date, or a lack of contrast between the construction of the sides of the feature and the material used to widen the causeway. The possible causeway continues tight to the edge of the survey area (chainage 700), and hence may continue for some distance to the south. It is recommended, therefore, that further archaeological prospection is carried out beyond chainage 700, to determine the full extent of the feature. It is recommended that the findings of the ground penetrating radar survey be confirmed by a combination of falling weight deflectometer (FWD) survey to confirm the change of road structure in the areas of interest and trial trenching to confirm the interpretation of the features detected by the GPR survey.",N 2046,"This project conducted in the Wylye Valley in Wiltshire, aimed at confirming a number of statements made over the years in describing an un-chambered long barrow in Sherrington. Issues concerning the dimensions, orientation, composition and construction required review and clarification. To help answer these, a magnetometer survey was conducted, which indicated the need (or desire) to cut ditches around the monument. Materials from which, being integral in the raising of the barrow. A small auger program followed, to produce stratigraphic evidence and material samples, aimed at eventually aiding interpretation of the magnetometer results. A survey was also undertaken, to produce a scale plan. Problems arose, but were generally overcome, to produce a number of results. Some of these, although inconclusive, seem probable, given the weight of evidence. The work carried out is part of a Wylye Valley research program by Dr. MJ Allen and Dr. J Gardiner.",N 2047,"The survey carried out in 2003 has found evidence of structural remains to the north of the church. However, these finds are not consistent with the interpretation made by the RCHME in 1934. If they are the remains of a cloister it is considerably bigger than originally thought. The discovery of a substantial circular structure beneath the car park was unexpected. The resistivity survey to the north found features consistent with fish farming or storage in this part of the site.",N 2048,A magnetic susceptibility and magnetometer survey were conducted over Iron Age enclosures known from cropmark evidence as Lot's Barn cropmark. High MS values over the whole site suggest craft-related rather than domestic burning taking place here. The ditches of the enclosures produced slightly lower levels of enhancement.,Y 2049,"An archaeological evaluation of the proposed site of the Diana Memorial Fountain, Hyde Park, London, revealed evidence of Roman settlement activity. Subsequent geophysical survey was conducted on land to the south and east of this in a bid to trace any associated building remains. Unfortunately, considerable modern interference and activity at the site has meant there is little geophysical evidence for any significant archaeology.",N 2050,"Magnetometer, earth resistance, seismic, ground penetrating radar and topographic surveys were conducted over part of the site at Silchester as part of an undergraduate field trip.",Y 2051,"A number of pit and ditch type anomalies were detected in a data set that was severely affected by modern noise from ferrous sources such as fences and buildings. The main concentration of assumed ditch features appeared to form an enclosure that is only partially contained within the area of investigation. Other faint trends and an area of increased magnetic disturbance were detected near these anomalies and, given the context, an archaeological interpretation is possible. Isolated ferrous anomalies have been assumed to relate to modern debris within the topsoil but, given the nature of the site, an archaeological origin for some of them cannot be dismissed. Despite increasing the sample rate to four readings per metre, and conducting the majority of the survey with the theoretically more sensitive Bartington fluxgate gradiometer, the results of the work were largely in accordance with the data collected in 1991.",N 2052,"A magnetometer survey has revealed that part of a known late Iron Age ditch in a field near South Cave, East Yorkshire, is part of a larger ladder settlement running north-west - south-east. Evidence for the line of a roadway adjacent to the ditched enclosures contradicts the assumed line of the Roman road in this area.",N 2053,"Cropmarks on a promontory on the edge of the Yorkshire Wolds in South Cave, East Yorkshire were investigated with magnetometry. The results corroborate the interpretation of the aerial photographic record, indicating a broad enclosure ditch with an entrance-way to the north. Unfortunately, few other archaeologically significant anomalies were detected.",N 2054,"The survey was successful in locating several anomalies that could be former walls of the friary. In particular the positioon of the western cloister walls, the southern side of the church and the eastern cloister walls could be seen in the data from both techniques. The resistivity survey in the adjoining field highlighted many linear anomalies which may be associated with structural remains.",N 2055,"Timescape surveys were commissioned by the University of Newcastle to conduct a preliminary geophysical survey of the Iron Age defended settlement west of Howick Haven, Northumberland. This survey was initiated as an initial exploratory geophysical investigation in July 2002 to determine the efficacy of two geophysical survey techniques (magnetometer and resistivity) at this site. The Archaeo-geophysical surveys have revealed a great deal about the defences of the hillfort. Notably, two ditches (or possibly palisade trenches) were observed as part of the defensive system of the fort, although their extent and relationship cannot yet be determined with any certainty. However, this survey was too small to definitively identify many features of the settlement and additional targeted geophysical survey at this site is recommended.",Y 2056,"Resistance survey immediately to the north of the castle walls has produced some interesting results. Most striking is a very high resistance curving anomaly which may indicate a bank associated with a ditch, the latter is visible as a topographic feature in places. The strength of the response associated with this possible bank suggests that is more than just a compacted earth feature and is likely to contain rubble/revetment or possibly indicate the remains of a wall. The resistance survey of the interior of the castle has identified numerous anomalies of archaeological interest including clearly defines foundations/walls. There is, however, some ambiguity in the results as to whether the survey has identified an earlier limit to the castle or suggestions of buildings along the existing curtain wall with a cobbled, or similar inner courtyard. While some of the more substantial resistance anomalies are not especially coherent in the time slice GPR data, it has provided additional information and aided interpretation of some of the less well defined resistance responses.",N 2057,"A small area for resistance survey has been positioned by Dr J Foyle over the presumed north west corner of the former courtyard and associated buildings at Audley End House. The existing floor plan indicates that on the western facade the building may be 6m in width while the northern range appears to be about 10m wide. The resistance survey clearly indicates a general response that is likely to be the result of the known archaeology. However, the width of the 'L' shaped response is greater than expected, probably indicating a more complex situation than is suggested by the map evidence. A high resistance anomaly has been noted central to the courtyard and it is assumed that this represents a road leading into it.",N 2072,"Earthwork and geophysical (resistance and gradiometer) surveys were carried out on land adjacent to Autumn Cottage, Foston. The earthwork survey identified a possible building platform with an adjacent level area of land that may be either an associated external feature or a second platform. The resistance survey identified an area of high resistance, corresponding broadly with these two earthworks, possibly suggesting the presence of made ground across part of the site. No anomalies of a probable archaeological origin were identified by the gradiometer survey.",N 2073,"Earth resistance and magnetometer surveys were conducted over the Iron Age and Romano-British settlement remains in several fields at Crab Farm, Shapwick, Somerset.

However no significant anomalies were detected.,Y 2075,An earth resistance survey was conducted over both a long mound and a Romano-Celtic temple complex. Unfortunately the results were disappointing due to the response to the underlying carboniferous limestone geology.,Y 2076,"An earth resistance survey was conducted around the standing remains of Titchfield Abbey, Hampshire. The results show a number of features possibly relating to the remains of buildings and a culvert. However, there was no trace of garden features.",Y 2077,"A magnetic susceptibility (MS) survey was conducted over the entire 11 hectares of the site using a prototype microprobe inserted into augered holes.

Unfortunately modern ferrous debris and rubble affected the results, though the possible line of Scots Dyke has been recorded.",Y 2079,"A fluxgate magnetometer survey was carried out over the two Iron Age marshland enclosures and the intervening relict stream channel on Sutton Common. The aim of the survey was to test the effectiveness of magnetic survey on the site prior to extensive excavation of the larger of the two enclosures which would provide subsequent archaeological feedback on the success of the technique at resolving archaeological features in this partially waterlogged environment. Contrary to predictions the survey proved more effective than expected, clearly detecting the peaty ditch-fills containing preserved timber defining the circuit of the smaller enclosure. The peat in-filled channel between the two enclosures was also clearly detected as a wide band of anomalous magnetic readings. The ditches of the larger enclosure were only partially mapped, possibly reflecting the severe agricultural degradation that has occurred in this area. The survey appears to have been less effective at mapping evidence of internal activity associated with the enclosures, but this could be a genuine indication that few substantial features are present. The data recorded over the larger enclosure contains numerous anomalies from small ferrous objects left over from previous excavation in 2002.",N 2080,"This report describes the results of magnetometer surveys carried out at the major henge monument of Durrington Walls in 1996 and 2003. The western part of the monument was surveyed in 1996 and in 2003 the coverage was extended to the east, including the henge bank and ditch and the area between the south-east entrance and the River Avon. The combined surveys have provided a considerable amount of new information on the internal character of the henge, features outside the entrance facing the river and the form and layout of the enclosing bank and ditch.",N 2081,"In March and May of 2002, geophysical surveys were conducted around a standing stone believed to be the last remnant of Falkner?s Circle, near Avebury, Wiltshire. Several discrete anomalies lying on an arc approximately 44m in diameter were identified and found to be either post medieval destruction pits or possible stone sockets when excavated in the summer of 2002. An extension to the survey area in 2003 has revealed further similar anomalies, although no obvious patterning was evident.",N 2082,"A Ground Penetrating Radar GPR survey was conducted over the remains of a rediscovered Cornish souterrain or fogou at Boden Vean, Manaccan, St. Anthony in Meneage, Cornwall. The fogou, last seen over 70 years ago, was relocated during the laying of an agricultural water main by the land owner in 1991 and became the subject of an extensive programme of geophysical survey, including a microgravity survey to identify any extant buried voids. The current GPR survey was conducted to complement this original work and better define the structure and location of the fogou indicated by the microgravity anomalies in advance of trial excavation proposed by the Cornwall Archaeological Unit. Despite a subdued response, the GPR survey has successfully identified a number of significant anomalies related to both the fogou and the surrounding round enclosure.",N 2083,"The gradiometer survey has successfully identified the course of the hillfort ditch and the ring-ditch at its centre. In addition a number of archaeological features not visible on aerial photographs have been recorded. In particular, two magnetically strong but irregular linear anomalies extend across the hillfort from the inner ring ditch. A number of pit type anomalies have been recorded inside the inner ring ditch that may be associated with burials. Elsewhere, the interior of the hillfort is magnetically quiet. A number of magnetically weak linear anomalies and trends have been recorded and isolated pit responses. However, the interpretation is cautious; modern debris and agricultural disturbance could have produced these anomalies.",N 2084,"The small area available and the presence of modern services limited the gradiomater survey. No anomalies of archaeological interest were discovered. The earth resistance surveys detected numerous linear trends and possible areas of archaeological interest. These include a Roman drain or culvert, possibly associated with the Roman villa in the Scheduled area, and a possible Roman wall.",N 2085,"Magnetometer and earth resistance surveys were conducted at The Hurlers stone circles on Bodmin Moor, Cornwall. The results were intended to inform a project investigating the Rillaton Barrow and its wider context. As was expected, the geophysical response on this granite site was relatively poor, with low magnetic enhancement of the soil and strong resistance responses to the near surface bedrock. Although no encircling ditches or additional stone settings were recorded, particularly in relation to a putative fourth circle, some results correlate with excavation evidence from the 1930¿s.",N 2086,"A fluxgate magnetometer survey was undertaken to map the remains of an extensive cemetery of plough-levelled barrows in the environs of a surviving upstanding barrow at Barrow Clump, Figheldean, badly disturbed by badger activity. The Centre for Archaeology is currently conducting archaeological excavations on the upstanding barrow to assess the impact of the badger damage. Despite some localised interference from ferrous material associated with the location of the site, within the Salisbury Plain Military Training Area (SPTA), the survey was largely successful, revealing the presence of up to 20 ring-ditches indicative of former barrows of a variety of forms and size. Additional features detected by the survey include a series of linear boundary ditches and a curving alignment of pits.",N 2087,"Several anomalies have been discovered which have high potential to be of archaeological origin due to the presence of the Scheduled Ancient Monument (SAM). These include high and low resistance area anomalies, complex ground penetrating radar (GPR) responses and inclined events. Due to the small area of the survey the significance of these features us unknown and may require further investigation.",N 2088,"This survey was carried out to test for the presence of archaeological features at a site which has produced large numbers of Roman and later metal detector and surface finds. The site responded strongly to a magnetometer survey, and produced findings which included a system of enclosures in the field to the north west of the area investigated. The main concentrations of magnetic anomalies lie outside these enclosures to the north, east and south. The magnetometer does not usually detect structures or masonry, but the findings would be consistent with the presence of settlement remains across much of the area surveyed.",N 2089,"This report presents the combined results from two geophysical surveys carried out during 2003 at the site of a suspected Roman building at Bucklebury, Berkshire. The first survey, done in March 2003, included resistivity coverage of a sample area of 0.5ha. The resistivity results showed strong disturbances at a location corresponding to the assumed site of the building, as indicated by previous surface finds, but this part of the site did not produce any substantial magnetic response of the kind to be expected from building debris which could include tiles or a hypocaust. The resistivity anomalies as seen in the initial survey could therefore have been of natural origin, and the location of the building may be indicated by magnetic anomalies detected in other parts of the site. The remainder of the area previously covered by the magnetometer survey (2ha) was then surveyed by resistivity in November 2003. This survey produced findings which correspond well to the magnetometer results in terms of their location and distribution, but in plan they do not appear to represent intact structural remains. It appears, therefore, that traces of one or more buildings are likely to be present at the location as indicated in the report, but that the wall footings have suffered plough erosion, or are too insubstantial or deeply buried to produce a clearly defined plan of a building.",N 2090,"Magnetometer and earth resistance surveys were carried out over the find-spots of Anglo-Saxon artefacts found in the vicinity of a low mound near Breamore, Hampshire, to try and characterise the site and help determine a programme of test-pitting. No pits or ditches were certainly located, but the magnetometer survey recorded numerous responses to ferrous objects, some of which may be of ancient origin, as suggested by subsequent test pits. Other anomalies were shown to be probably caused by relatively modern ferrous debris. The earth resistance survey was hampered by very dry ground conditions and was not informative. The possibility that the mound may represent a re-used prehistoric barrow could not be confirmed.",N 2091,"A geophysical survey using magnetometry and resistivity was carried out in Castle Field and Parsonage Farm orchard at Over Stowey, Somerset. Both techniques revealed anomalies of which a number may be of archaeological significance: Curvilinear magnetic and resistive anomalies suggest a wise ditch partially surrounding the western earthen mound in Castle Field. Areas of high resistance correlating to the position of the Castle Field earthworks would suggest the deliberate build up of soil or other material. Magnetic and resistive anomalies within Parsonage Farm orchard correlate to formal garden earthworks and may indicate other garden features. A large band of high resistance extends from west to east across Castle Field and has an uncertain origin. Although this may be a response to a modern feature close to the surface, an archaeological or geological origin should also be considered.",N 2092,"A site, known through metal detecting to have produced large quantities of Viking metal work, some of which is subject to the Treasure Act 1996, was surveyed with magnetometry and earth resistance techniques. The presence of thermoremanent features suggests that industrial activities may have been carried out in this part of the site. Part of a large, hitherto unknown, curvi-linear ditch was recorded, the extents of which and relationship to other anomalies are as yet unknown.",N 2093,"The limits of the extant vaults forming Lady Walpole's Grotto have been identified and a number of anomalies that may affect the structural integrity of the feature have been recorded. It was not possible to prove the existence of further vaults, extant or demolished, closer to Gordon House. However, anomalies within this area suggest the presence of some remains but interpretations are tentative and garden features and landscaping effects cannot be entirely ruled out. It is suggested that possible structural remains exist in the extreme western corner of the survey area. However, these interpretations are tentative given the number of responses thought to be related to garden features and landscaping, including what appears to be a path or trackway running past the back of the grotto. The data collected within the immediate vicinity of Gordon House and the Library were badly affected by surface and near-surface artefacts. Despite this, responses of archaeological potential have been identified but it was not possible to fully characterise them.",N 2094,"The geophysical response was reasonable for the magnetic and earth resistance surveys although both survey methods were compromised to some extent by concentrations of wind blown and consolidated sand. The terrain and vegetation made for difficult surveying in places and increased the requirement for post-collection gradiometer data correction. Nevertheless, the gradiometer and resistance surveys did demonstrate the extent of buried archaeology across the area and a reasonable level of definition and characterisation of the detectable archaeology was revealed. Knowledge of the extent and nature of the St. Piran's churchyard boundary was extended by both surveys and there is some evidence for an outer ditch and for more than one phase of boundary. There was evidence of graves around St. Piran's Cross and on the eastern side of the churchyard and for two possible masonry or stone structures within the churchyard. While no definite conclusions could be drawn from either survey with regards to the sites of buildings, a general pattern of land use was established. It is likely that buildings existed to the south and southwest of the churchyard, in and around the recorded earthworks, with small associated enclosures to the southwest and cultivated fields in the west and south of the survey area. A large anomaly dominates the magnetic data to the southeast of the church. This anomaly may be related to iron extraction at the nearby Halwyn iron ore mine or may be the result of a large and concentrated amount of buried ferrous material.",N 2095,The magnetic response proved moderate across the survey area and the resistance response was good. A substantial area of building remains was identified in the northwest of the survey area around Columbjohn Chapel and Pigeon Cottage. The survey delimited the extent of this area in the surrounding fields and it is likely that further remains are to be found to the north of the survey area. This area around the chapel is a good candidate for the site of the 16th century Columbjohn Mansion. Possible building or garden feature foundations were also recorded on an embanked stance and an enhanced terrace situated to the east of the river Culm and to the southwest of the chapel. Evidence was also found to support the existence of a drive on the west of the terrace leading from an existing gatehouse to the possible site of the mansion.,N 2096,"The findings from the magnetometer and resistivity surveys of the site of the former Tudor palace at Tudor Court, Hanworth, suggest that wall footings or other structural remains are likely to survive at various locations within the former moated site. A number of gravel paths and other recent or extant disturbances were also detected, and these are not in all cases readily distinguishable from archaeological remains. The fragmented and obstructed nature of the survey also hinders any attempt to deduce a clear overall plan of the Tudor buildings, but it is possible that a number of individual features which could indicate structural remains from earlier buildings have been identified. We are told that the assumed site of the Tudor house was towards the north of the survey area, where findings include the resistivity anomalies at F, G and H (labelled on figure). Clusters of magnetic and resistivity anomalies were also seen at various other locations, of which those at A and B towards the south and southeast of the site are perhaps most likely to be associated with structural remains.",N 2097,"This survey was undertaken to test for evidence of archaeological remains within an area of floodplain immediately to the south of Okehampton Castle. Roman artefacts suggesting the nearby presence of a substantial building have been found during previous excavations at the castle, and there are a few other sites suitable for such a building in the vicinity. The riverside fields were investigated by means of magnetometer and resistivity surveys, both of which produced strong responses of a largely geological character. The metamorphic bedrock gave rise to strong magnetic anomalies, which in some parts of the site could perhaps obscure any archaeological features which are present. There were not, however, any clearly significant findings from less disturbed parts of the site. The resistivity survey also detected widespread background variations of probably geological origin. A few linear and other localised resistivity anomalies can be identified in the plots but they do not appear to indicate the presence of any clearly defined structural remains.",N 2098,"Magnetic and resistance surveys were undertaken in a field immediately south of Sawley Abbey where it is proposed to construct a children's play area. Anomalies corresponding to the prominent earthworks have been identified, one of which may be a building platform. Magnetometer survey over a much wider area (approximately 9 hectares) to the east and north of the abbey has identified a plethora of linear anomalies, almost all of which are caused by earthwork banks, as well as several areas of magnetic enhancement or disturbance which are also considered likely to have an archaeological origin given their location.",N 2099,"Fluxgate magnetometer survey was carried out over a complex cluster of small enclosures, linear ditched features and possible dwellings of probable Iron Age date initially discovered by aerial photography at the foot of the Lambourn Downs near the village of Uffington, Oxfordshire. The magnetometer survey responded well to the features that had previously given rise to the crop-marks mapped from the air. The resulting geophysical data significantly enhances earlier understanding of the layout and character of the settlement including evidence for a previously unrecognised larger enclosure formed of straight ditch alignments bounding the complex of smaller compounds and hut-circles. Little further archaeological activity was detected beyond this enclosure boundary. The magnetometer survey has also added evidence of numerous pits, many of which are grouped in dense clusters adjacent to some of the possible dwellings. Part of the course of a former canal was also detected partly due to the presence of ferrous material in the now in-filled cutting.",N 2100,"A caesium magnetometer survey was carried out in advance of research excavation by the Danebury Environs Roman programme over the site of a large, plough-levelled, sub-rectangular enclosure of presumed Iron Age to Roman date near Flint Farm, Fullerton, Hampshire. The enclosure is periodically visible as a cropmark and although mapped by aerial photography had not previously been investigated in detail. The magnetometer survey produced exceptionally clear results that considerably improve understanding of the form and layout of the site and the activity within. The survey identifies the sub-rectangular enclosure defined by a ditch on three sides but of unknown extent to the west beyond a belt of trees and further agricultural land not included in the current survey. The western end of the enclosure is sub-divided into several smaller enclosures and other internal anomalies suggest the presence of numerous pits, quarry features and ring gullies indicative of circular dwellings.",N 2101,"A fluxgate magnetometer survey was carried out over the southern portion of the Neolithic henge at Durrington Walls extending across the ploughed out southern bank of Durrington Walls to the smaller neighbouring henge monument of Woodhenge. In addition to expanding the previous magnetometer coverage of Durrington Walls, the purpose of the survey was to attempt to map any traces of archaeological features linking the two adjacent henges such as an avenue, or approach structures formed by ditch or pit alignments. Conditions for magnetic survey in the area between the henges were poor due to extensive interference from ferrous material near the modern field boundaries and road lines. No obvious features linking the two henges were detected, with the exception of two very weak and tentative linear anomalies north and south of the expected southern entrance of Durrington Walls. The survey has revealed a considerable number of significant anomalies not directly related to the henge but nevertheless of interest in the area south and west of the bank of Durrington Walls and north of Woodhenge. These anomalies include an apparent enclosure, ditched boundaries and a possible trackway.",N 2102,"A round barrow on the Lambourn Downs, damaged by ploughing, was surveyed with caesium magnetometry in an attempt to define the monument and locate any related features. The response at the site was good and the barrow ditch has been clearly located although questions remain over the exact form and position of the outer bank. No other significant anomalies are thought to be directly related to the barrow.",N 2103,"As part of investigations into an Anglo-Saxon settlement complex near Sutton Courtenay, Oxfordshire, a magnetometer survey of ~15.8 hectares was conducted. Correlation with aerial photographs was good, nonetheless the geophysical evidence has considerably increased the number of recorded archaeological features. Subsequent excavation has confirmed several geophysical anomalies and provided some dating evidence.",N 2104,"Overall, the level of magnetic response was low and no anomalies were detected which clearly indicate an Anglo-Saxon settlement. However, a number of pit-type responses and linear/curving anomalies have been recorded which may be of archaeological interest. The strongest anomalies are found in the southern part of the site where they form two amorphous groups. One of these groups (A) lies within a diffuse zone if increased magnetic response which is characteristic of plough-damaged features. This group could indicate the remains of settlement and may even reflect some small scale industrial activity. Elsewhere in the survey, a few oval, circular and sub-rectangular trends have been identified which might indicate former enclosures, but the weak nature of the responses makes this interpretation tentative. Most of the pit-type anomalies recorded by the survey are random in their distribution and are not associated with any definite enclosure ditch of boundary. Whilst they may represent rubbish or storage pits associated with settlement activity, such an interpretation is inconclusive. The data also contain a number of anomalies thought to have non-archaeological origins. These include broad amorphous responses assigned a natural origin and faint linear trends thought to reflect recent agricultural practices. Small scale ferrous anomalies are evident throughout the survey. These are characteristic of small ferrous objects in the topsoil but it is not possible to ascertain whether they are modern or of possible archaeological significance.",N 2105,"An earth resistance survey was conducted over a Neolithic Causewayed Enclosure and two adjacent barrows on Coombe Hill, East Sussex. The results were mixed, with some archaeological features proving more responsive than others.",Y 2106,"An electromagnetic and electrical imaging survey was conducted on the site of St, Mary's Graveyard, Melbourne, Derbyshire in an attempt to locate a medieval church. The possible location of a vault, path and structure were tentatively interpreted but further work is needed to provide stronger evidence.",Y 2107,"An enclosure settlement known as Ewe Close on a hilltop close to the village of Plumbland, Cumbria was investigated using documentary evidence, aerial photograph rectification, topographic and geophysical survey. The geophysical survey revealed part of the enclosure boundary and several circular anomalies that have been interpreted as 'hut circles'. Some were not obviously evident from the aerial photographs.",Y 2108,"An earth resistance survey was conducted over a cropmark adjacent to the surviving round barrow known as the Ickleford Tumulus, Hertfordshire. Unfortunately no anomalies were recorded that corresponded with the documented cropmark.",Y 2109,"An earth resistance survey was conducted over a series of earthworks at Frog Firle farm, Alfriston, East Sussex in an attempt to enhance information recorded on an earlier earthwork survey (conducted by UCL). The survey successfully recorded several features that are not visible from the ground, however, detail on the function of the site may require more intrusive investigation.",Y 2110,"Two resistivity profiles were recorded along cleared pathways within Wigmore Castle, Herefordshire in attempt to map the underlying strata, determine depth to bedrock and locate any possible buried archaeology.

The location for several structures has been identified including one possible site of a burnt timber building. The survey of the graveyard has indicated a few anomalies that may benefit from further (non-invasive) investigation.",Y 2114,"A resistivity survey on the earthworks surrounding Orford Castle, Suffolk, located a small number of anomalies characteristic of archaeological features and large zones of high resistance readings indicating the presence of dumped material. The data,however, was faint, fragmentary and not wholly consistent with results that might be expected from the site. It was not possible therefore to confidently interpret the anomalies as being associated with castle structures.",N 2115,"Gradiometer survey carried out at Airman's Corner recorded a few anomalies of archaeological interest. Thos that were identified were magnetically weak and poorly defined. They are likely to have been produced by agricultural activity and natural soil variations. However, it is possible that the remains of a ring ditch indicative of a barrow and containing a possible grave cut has been detected in the northern part of the study area. Survey carried out at Countess West located several features known from photographic evidence including part of Stonehenge avenue. In addition, two or possible three barrow sites may have been identified and fragments of possible field systems. Again, the anomalies are magnetically weak in all cases and the interpretation is cautious.",N 2116,"As part of an English Heritage project to investigate, and possibly reconstruct, the original Elizabethan garden at Kenilworth Castle, geophysical surveys were carried out within the castle grounds focussing on the area to the north of the keep. The surveys formed the initial phase of a multidisciplinary investigation and were intended provide information to guide trial excavation trenches. Although data collection was hampered by the presence of an existing formal garden on the site, established in the 1970s, it was possible to identify a number of anomalies that were later investigated and confirmed by excavation. Further geophysical surveys were conducted in other areas of the castle and on the Pleasance, an artificial earthwork platform 1km west of the castle used as a pleasure ground for feasting during the late medieval period. Anomalies likely to indicate the presence of structural remains were detected in both locations and it has thus been possible to identify the probable original and final sites of buildings that Henry VIII is recorded to have ordered to be removed from the Pleasance and reconstructed within the castle.",N 2117,"Magnetometer, earth resistance and Ground Penetrating Radar surveys were conducted on part of the deserted medieval village to the S and E of Kelmarsh Hall, Northamptonshire. The initial results were intended to inform a display for the Festival of History 2005, held at the site, with further results being collected with public participation at the event. The geophysical response was good with all techniques providing excellent results. Not only was more detail revealed about the system of medieval tofts and crofts and a now demolished Georgian farmhouse, but also a previously unknown complex of buildings was discovered opposite the Hall, interpreted as the site of an earlier manor house.",N 2118,"The fluxgate gradiometer survey has been severely affected by a number of modern disturbances relating to military activity on the site. As a result, apart from the possibility of a few 'internal' features being identified within the mounds themselves, little new archaeological information has been forthcoming. The value of carrying out magnetic surveys on sites that lie within firing ranges, especially where there are upstanding earthworks as opposed to ploughed out sites, must be called into question.",N 2119,"The geophysics (magnetometer and earth resistance) survey carried out as part of a Local Heritage Initiative project at Kippax Ringwork, a post-Conquest Scheduled Ancient Monument, has identified anomalies caused b the extant ramparts and a possible infilled outer defensive ditch. No anomalies indicative of a structure were identified within the keep area. It was not possible to identify any potential archaeological features beyond the edge of the monument due tot eh degree of modern disturbance.",N 2120,The section beside the road at the north gate has produced some interesting anomalies in the resistivity data that are probably archaeological structures. The survey in the playing fields has produced areas of high and low resistance but do not show enough detail for their possible origins to be determined. The magnetometer data was less successful due to the presence of ferrous debris.,N 2121,"Gradiometer survey recorded a noisy dataset, particularly in the west where extensive ferrous disturbance was encountered. Ridge and furrow present along the southern edge of the survey area also produced magnetically strong responses. In the east, a possible enclosure and a discrete area of magnetic disturbance appear to indicate the remains of a former welling and associated enclosure or garden plot. Resistance survey within the ringwork of the site detected few indications of wall footings. The majority of the responses appeared to reflect variations in the topography and the influence of nearby trees. However, a circular anomaly recorded in the centre of the survey area may indicate the presence of a well.",N 2122,"A caesium magnetometer survey was carried out in advance of research excavation by the Danebury Environs Roman programme over the site of a large, plough-levelled, sub-rectangular enclosure of presumed Iron Age to Roman date near Flint Farm, Fullerton, Hampshire.

The magnetometer survey recorded evidence of burning, but no other significant features. The earth resistance survey revealed some areas of high resistance, but the patterning of these was not unambiguous enough for any causative features to be confidently identified.",N 2124,"Caesium magnetometer surveys were carried out in two areas of the Vale of Pickering containing a range of archaeological features previously mapped by the Landscape Research Centre using fluxgate gradiometry. The English Heritage surveys were designed to assess the potential of a caesium sensor total field system for improving the resolution of anomalies from archaeological features buried under varying thicknesses of wind-blown sand cover as well as providing a more general comparative study of the effectiveness of the two types of magnetometer. There is good correspondence between the archaeological anomalies detected by both types of instrument, particularly in the case of the ditches of the ladder system settlements that run through both survey areas. However the caesium survey has succeeded in providing greater definition as well as possibly detecting a number of additional insubstantial anomalies that are not clear in the fluxgate data, such as the small oval ring-ditch type features that are widely scattered throughout the Vale. The factors that may influence this variability, including differences in instrument sensitivity, data collection intervals and the mounting of the caesium sensors on a cart system, are discussed in the conclusions of the report.",N 2125,"A geophysical survey, using multiple techniques, was undertaken to better define a complex of archaeological features including a Roman villa and associated enclosures at Dunkirt Barn in advance of excavation by the Danebury Roman Environs Project. A clear magnetic response was recorded over the site adding considerable detail to the location and nature of the enclosure system around the villa and the Iron Age banjo enclosure to the N, enhancing the available aerial photographic record. Localised areas of magnetic disturbance suggested the position of several large buildings that, following targeted earth resistance survey, revealed a complex of Romano-British structures including detailed floor plans containing evidence for the individual room partitions. Finally, a ground penetrating radar (GPR) survey was conducted over the main villa building in advance of its excavation. The GPR survey proved very effective, identifying the main corridor building as a separate phase of building from activity immediately to the S, due to its differing alignment and the greater maximum depth extent of villa walls. Comparison of the geophysical interpretation is also presented against the preliminary excavation results.",N 2126,"This report presents the results of an archaeological magnetometry survey within the interior of Castle Gotha, an oval uni-vallate enclosure or 'round', in Porthpean, near St Austell.

A rapid building recording exercise was carried out by Wessex Archaeology and the surviving wall footings were found to be remarkably well preserved. Subsequently, the English Heritage Geophysics Team was requested to carry out a geophysical survey in the immediate vicinity to determine whether any further Roman remains might be present. A second aim of the survey was to identify areas likely to be free of archaeological features from which material could be excavated to cover the exposed remains, thus protecting them from weather damage. An earth resistance survey was conducted and this appears to have detected a number of potential additional Roman features including a second building.

The work was conducted as part of the author's wider field investigations as part of an MSc in Applied Landscape Archaeology dissertation on the rapidly urbanising Swindon environs. Within the hillfort the survey revealed a number of probable storage pits, consistent with non-intensive Iron Age occupation, plus suggestions of Medieval arable cultivation. Results from other areas of magnetometer survey were less clear, partly due to differences in geology and perhaps also to an increased disturbance of the soil. A probable linear ditch extends roughly parallel to the hillfort ramparts, to their north, and may be associated with the hillfort or with later agricultural modifications of the slope.

Ditch type anomalies along the northern edge of the site may be associated with'the Bulwark'. Most of the remaining anomalies highlighted in Areas 1 to 5 do not form obvious archaeological patterns and may simply reflect ancient and more recent agricultural land use at the site.

The site is known as the location of a manor house during the post-medieval period which was demolished in the 19th Century, and part of which might be represented by a group of cottages at the rear of the site. The site is a Scheduled Ancient Monument, the scheduling being based on the apparent associations of the site and the presence of evident earthworks; the site was however, poorly understood. In order to clarify the nature of the earthworks and investigate the location of any possible buildings, an earthwork survey and geophysical surveys using two forms of earth resistance and fluxgate gradiometry were carried out. These surveys have confirmed the presence of extensive stone or brick structures. A review of the available original documentation has indicated that many of these structures can be identified as relating to the building known in the post-medieval period. Both the documentary evidence and the geophysical survey may imply that there were at least two phases in the development of this house. However, the survey also located a substantial rectangular stone building at the western end of the site that does not appear in any of the documentation. It has been considered that this is an earlier structure. Comparisons to other building ground plans indicate the possibility that the building was an earlier medieval hall house or First-floor Hall. While no connection to King John can be proved, the implication is that there may have been a high status building present on the site in the early 13th century.",N 2142,"Earth resistance survey was conducted at Leckhampton moated site, Gloucestershire in an attempt to define the extent of buried buildings on the moat's platform.

The anomaly associated with the eastern extent of the ditch appears to interact with a section of harder bedrock as mentioned above.

The area of higher resisitance roughly around the edges of the survey area could indicate structural remains from a former church, although all the anomolies have to potential to be geological in origin.",N 2166,"Work at Elsynge palace identified a dump of bricks and part bricks (?palace demolition), covering a brick floor structure connected to ferrous metal working and overlying a significant fuel ash deposit on a probable earth floor. Mounding of the dump at its periphery implies that the resistivity anomalies reflect the existence of a c.8x8m structure within which the industrial activity took place, though this may not be the full extent of any structure(s) and dumps, and the resistivity evidence is highly limited.",N 2167,Resistance data from the eastern end of the Abbey church site showed that the church was ca. 5m shorter than was previously recorded from parch marks. It also clarified some of the structures on the eastern sides of the transepts. Foundation walls along the lines of the nave continue across the transepts. Neither the resistance nor the magnetic survey revealed the position of the north west section of the precinct wall.,N 2168,"A geophysical survey by resistivity and magnetometry over the scheduled Roman villa site produced mixed results. To the west of the scheduled site, potential wall lines were recorded (villa walls?). Over the scheduled site itself (the presumed main building of the villa) several strong anomalies were recorded (quarry pits, or kilns?), but nothing which corresponds with a buildign plan.",N 2169,"The presence of ridge and furrow and service pipes at each site have hindered the interpretation of weaker anomalies of probable archaeological significance. Nevertheless, many archaeological features have been recorded across both sites, including parts of field systems, sub-circular and sub-rectangular enclosures, probable ring-ditches and hearths, pits and miscellaneous soil filled features.",N 2170,"A geophysical survey was carried out immediately east of Silbury Hill in an attempt to identify any significant archaeological activity in this area and assist the wider interpretation of the monument within a landscape context, in advance of ongoing conservation works to stabilise the mound. An extensive caesium magnetometer survey was conducted and successfully recorded a wide range of anomalies. Many of these anomalies appear to result from the variable geology of the river valley location on the floodplain of the Winterbourne stream (or river Kennet). However, immediately east of Silbury Hill a series of linear magnetic anomalies indicate the presence of a complex of ditched enclosures and associated occupation activity. More weakly defined anomalies suggest the presence of further enclosures extending under deposits of alluvium running up to the present course of the Winterbourne stream. These results suggest that the Romano-British activity previously recorded beyond the survey area, directly east of the Winterbourne, may extend up to the external quarry ditch around Silbury Hill. A more limited earth resistance survey provides additional evidence for possible structural features within the enclosures identified by the magnetic survey.",N 2171,"The magnetic response across the site was low. The 'interference' of non-archaeological anomalies common to woodland environments inevitable reduced the quality of data collected but did not adversely affect the analysis. A number of potential archaeological structures were identified on the known earthworks in the NE, SE SW and NW sections of the site along with a few potential structures not associated with the recorded earthworks, including a potential platform and an associated structure. Three possible in situ heating events were identified. Evidence was found for earlier phases of archaeological structures beneath extant south-eastern earthworks along with evidence for the re-use of earlier earthworks as charcoal production areas. Some evidence of remnant ploughing was recorded in the North-west quadrant of the hillfort.",N 2172,"The magnetic response was strongly influenced by the deposit of slag which made the characterisation of potential buried archaeology problematic. Nevertheless, five dipolar anomalies indicating in situ areas of burning likely to be features associated with iron working were identified on the western edge of the main slag deposit. Other uncharacterised features were tentatively identified on and adjacent to the main slag deposit. A possible second slag deposit was identified at the western edge of the survey area.",N 2173,"Two areas with groups of relatively high anomalies likely to represent deposits of iron rich material and/or burnt material were found in the context of other anomaly groups indicative of possible archaeological structures. There was no evidence of intense in-situ burning indicative of possible furnaces, smithing hearths or ore roasting. Known earthworks and evidence for a likely entrance to the enclosure was supported by a patterning of anomalies. The large sub-enclosure on the western side appears to have been defined, at least in part, by a stone or masonry wall which may have been further subdivided. There is some evidence for structures within this enclosure.",N 2174,"The survey of an area of possible iron ore processing was surveyed as part of the Exmoor Iron project. An area of potential heating was found, but no evidence of iron-ore processing was found and there was no other clear geophysical evidence for past activities.",N 2176,"Two areas of potential iron working were located with a further three areas identified either as discrete deposits of magnetic material or, possibly but less likely, areas of iron working of some kind. In addition to three known slag heaps and associated earthworks, a buried deposit of slag was identified during this survey and seems to be associated with known earthworks. Two of the slag heaps were shown to have possible archaeological structures within and/or beneath them. Two new discrete archaeological structures have been identified along with several linear leats or ditches.",N 2177,A number of magnetic and resistance features were distinguished from the survey including iron working platforms and a furnace.,Y 2178,"A detailed magnetic survey and a resistance survey were carried out over approx 8 ha of land at Hailes Abbey Gloucestershire. Six resistivity pseudosections were also produced to assess a leaking dam in the south east of the site and the depth of sediments in a pond. The geophysical survey has enabled the identification of a complex set of anomalies surrounding the abbey which indicate extensive structural remains are likely to exist. Within the abbey itself discrete linear anomalies suggest the presence of intact wall features with possible out buildings to the east. The pseudosections have revealed anomalies that may represent weaknesses in the dam while the transects over the pond have defined a lens shape anomaly likely to represent sediment deposits down to a depth of 1.6m in places, that appear to get shallower to the east.",N 2179,"The survey revealed possible pre-Norman strip farming plots, the C12th stone revetting of earthworks/ditches along with a possible midden in the SW quadrant of the ringwork and a rectangular platform for a C17th gun battery.",Y 2182,"A 0.5 resolution gradiometry and earth resistance survey was conducted over an area immediately to the south of the Magpie Mine Engine Shaft. The puropse of the survey was to determine the location of a boiler house associated with an early engine, used for winding the engine shaft. The earth resistance survey identified a linear anomaly on the correct alignment for the east side of the boiler house.",N 2183,"A geophysical survey of the interior of the hill fort was undertaken to locate any evidence of ferrous anomalies that could be military in origin and any evidence of the type of habitation employed at the site. The magnetometer survey indicated a number of ferrous responses and anomalies which could provide evidence of the tree plantation that once utilised the site. Evidence of cultivation was found on the northern spur and a number of possible trenches were located in the SE corner of the hill fort. Earth resistance data located drainage ditches, evident from aerial photographs, waterlogged areas and negative responses in the subsoil.",N 2184,"GPR and resistance survey carried out within the south eastern part of the Roman walled town at Colchester has located a number of anomalies likely to be related to archaeological features. High resistance linear and area anomalies located across the lawn of East Hill House may relate to former Romano-British structures. Areas of discrete and complex radar response may also indicates structural debris across the north and south lawns of the house and the playing field towards the south east. A series of planar reflections within the nursery car park area have confirmed the existence of and east-west Roman street. A number of anomalies have an uncertain origin and are difficult to interpret but may be of archaeological significance. These include a possible north-south street, fragmented wall remains and a large ditch. The GPR has show that the likely depth of soil build up over possible archaeological deposits is approximately 1m for most of the survey areas with the exception of the playing field where reflections are significantly shallower at around 0.5m",N 2185,The work undertaken as part of a MA in Landscape Archaeology concentrated on istes which had not previously be subjectde to geophysical survey in order to supplement existing knowledge and also to direct future research in the region. The sites did not focus on the known Neolithic monuments but covered areas potentially from the Neolithic to the Middle Ages.,N 2186,"Magnetic, Resistance and GPR surveys were carried out in an attempt to locate the foundations and walls of the castle buildings. Of these three techniques the resistance survey provided the most informative results; the footprint of the castle was identified together with evidence for key elements of the complex. Although a clear plan was not obtained, this result reflected the reality of a site that had been systematically demolished and subsequently landscaped.",N 2187,"The magnetometer survey was conducted at the fort, established the location of the subsurface remains of the fort and settlement and revealed the presence of a surrounding Romano-British field system. The settlement proved to be small with approximately 60 buildings, although it is speculated that it could extend westwards beyond the survey area.",Y 2188,"The geophysical survey (resistivity, magnetometry, and magnetic susceptibility) revealed features associated with the medieval monastery, confirming discoveries made during excavations and clearances during the mid-C19th and revealed new structural evidence in the area between the main monastery buildings and the Abbot's Lodge to the east. These features are likely to be either garden features, associated with the Tudor mansion or ancillary buildings of the medieval monastery.",N 2189,"The results of the magnetometry survey indicate that the major responses that have been mapped are the result of modern use of the site. The data in the northern part of the site are severely disturbed due to the presence of a former abattoir. Elsewhere, the data exhibit a high background level of magnetic response which is unlikely to be of archaeological origin. However, set back from the fort defences there is evidence for two potential ditches. It is not certain if the two putative ditches are associated as the break between them may be a result of the limited extent of the survey. Another potential break has been highlighted and this may indicate a possible entrance to the fort. Scant evidence has been found to suggest activity within the interior of the fort, but that may be a reflection of the high background levels.",N 2190,"A magnetometry and earth resistance survey was conducted over part fo Totley Bole hill near Sheffield. The purose of the survey was to investigate the feasibility of using geophysical prospection techniques over archaeological lead smelting activities, and to ascertain the extent of the remains of these activities. The magnetometry results successfully identified several lead smelting features whilst the earth resististance survey produced diappointing results due to a combination of site geology and potentially high ground water content caused by adverse weather conditions. Recommendations are made for further investigations to be undrtaken on this site.",N 2191,"The survey carried out in the library gardens was part of a community archaeology training workshop, aimed at involving and engaging the public in archaeological techniques. The survey revealed area of high resistance and some possibele linear anomalies close to the minster library.",N 2192,"A geophysical evaluation covering an area of 5 hectares and comprising both magnetometer and earth resistance surveys was carried out in a field to the west of Spital Farm, Staxton, part of which is a Scheduled Monument thought to be the site of a medieval hospital. Anomalies corresponding to upstanding earthworks as well as to other previously known sub-surface features have been identified both within and beyond the scheduled area. These anomalies are indicative of in filled ditches forming possible enclosures as well as discrete anomalies indicative of pits, areas of burning and possibly graves. It is not clear whether any of the identified anomalies is associated with the former hospital although the type and morphology of the anomalies is suggestive of more than one period of activity.",N 2194,"A geophysical survey was carried out on part of the Iron Age hillfort and Roman camp at Hod Hill during summer 2006. The magnetometry results alone confirm intensive habitation across the whole area but are insufficient to permit complete mapping of internal features; limited sampling indicates that it is however possible to complete this work by other methods. The survey shows that plough damage has affected occupation layers and created surface noise but significant cut features remain and are detectable by ground-penetrating radar. Weakness of magnetic response in these features may indicate razing of the southeren slope by the occupying Roman force. Considerable disturbance is shown within the Roman camp, but survey results accord with the RCHME plan and confirm the destruction by fire of some buildings. Other magnetic anomalies cannot be unequivocally identified without excavation.",N 2198,"During river works in 2004 the remains of a boat were exposed embedded in the river bank at Port Meadow near Binsey in Oxford. As the age and character of the remains were unclear the English Heritage Geophysics Team was requested to carry out a survey over the adjacent bank to help characterise the discovery. Magnetometer and earth resistance surveys both detected complementary evidence for anomalies associated with the buried boat allowing its approximate dimensions to be ascertained and indicating that a large amount of ferrous material was involved in its construction. Evidence suggesting the introduction of compacted material to strengthen the surrounding river bank was also detected, perhaps indicating that the boat was deliberately embedded into the riverbank as additional shoring.",N 2199,"Geophysical surveys were conducted at Wharram le Street, North Yorkshire to attempt to relocate a crop-mark feature suggestive of a hengiform monument. The area had been surveyed 28 years previously and successfully located considerable Roman settlement, but it was hoped that modern, more sensitive equipment would elucidate earlier activity at the site. Both magnetometry and earth resistance survey recorded a large circular ditch and internal oval anomaly to the W of the head to the Gypsey Race. Part of the Roman activity was re-surveyed and showed good correlation with the existing data, though a newly surveyed area to the E indicated less intense occupation.",N 2200,"Magnetometry and earth resistance surveys were conducted in the Privy Garden area of Carisbrooke Castle, Isle of Wight as part of a wider research programme into the history of this garden. Although some anomalies were discovered that related to garden features, the overall results were hampered by the dry weather and dumps of post-medieval material used to level the site.",N 2220,"A detailed geophysical survey was conducted over a single round barrow to determine whether a suitable methodology to delimit the damaged caused by badgers, and other burrowing animal disturbance, could be proposed. The geophysical investigation was conducted in advance of the partial excavation of the barrow, during the summer of 2005, and was complemented by a magnetic survey of 4.4ha to cover other known monuments within the immediate vicinity. This report provides an initial assessment of the geophysical data in advance of the final excavation results.",N 2221,"Geophysical surveys conducted over the NE quadrant of the Freston causewayed enclosure were intended to investigate aerial photographic evidence for a large post-hole structure of possible Neolithic or Anglo-Saxon date. Although corroborating evidence was recorded, little further detail was revealed that was not already known from cropmarks.",N 2223,"An FM256 gradiometer survey, total area 20m x 80m (4 x 20m2 grids), was completed March 2007. Extremely adverse weather conditions and poor visibility hindered the progress of the survey, preventing total area survey of the monument, and as a result, geophysical raw data is of a reduced quality. Wet weather and sodden ground prevented resistivity survey. Areas of low magnetic field can be identified towards the north of the enclosure including an ovoid feature in the north-eastern corner of the enclosure which may represent a circular structure similar to those already recorded at the site, and a curvilinear feature on the north-western face of the enclosure likely representing a post-prehistoric animal pen, although further investigation is required in order to clarify this interpretation.",N 2225,"Detailed topographic and magnetometer surveys were carried out over 20.5 hectares of a Scheduled Ancient Monument. The topographic survey has characterised the natural topography and defined earthworks resulting from recent agricultural activity. The magnetometer survey has defined the location of a boundary/enclosure ditch, settlement/funerary activity and a possible flanking ditch of a Roman road at the southeast corner of the survey area. A settlement, trackway and field system have been identified at the southwest. Other possible archaeological anomalies have been identified spread across the southern half of the survey area.",N 2226,Magnetometer and earth resistance surveys were conducted to test for evidence for the location and course of a brick conduit. Though a possible alignment is suggested the results are not definitive.,Y 2227,"Earth resistance and magnetometer surveys were conducted in the outer (or lower) bailey enclosure of Wigmore Castle and over the remains of a smaller series of outworks at Green Hill further to the east. The purpose of the surveys was to assess the potential contribution of geophysical techniques to widening the understanding of the castle and its immediate environs. Survey of the outer bailey was moderately successful, revealing the probable lines of defensive ditches bounding the northern side of the enclosure and other possible evidence of occupation including two apparent rubble spreads, possibly related to the location of former building remains. The results from the second area east of the outer bailey are difficult to assess because of the limited size of the area surveyed and the steep topography of the earthworks. Some evidence of former stone structures may have been detected on the two mounds that make up the site, but would require verification by trial trenching.",N 2228,This report presents the results of geophysical surveys conducted as part of ongoing research by English Heritage to improve interpretation of the Castle remains and surrounding features. The works comprised both geomagnetic and earth resistance surveys. The works were commissioned by English Heritage and conducted by Archaeological Services in accordance with a brief provided by English Heritage. Areas of anomalously high resistance data have been detected in Areas A (within castle adjacent to the west curtain wall) and B (to the south west of the castle near an associated pond or outer moat feature). These may indicate the presence of stone structures of potential archaeological significance.,Y 2229,The survey successfully demonstrated the extension of the probable Romano-British settlement on the eastern side of the A285 known from cropmarks into the surveyed field on the western side. Positive magnetic anomalies indicate what appears to be a circular enclosure in the north-eastern quadrant of the survey grid with a possible trackway running east-west through it (suggestive of multi-phased activity) and an irregular enclosure ditch appears to run around the surveyed area with several linear ditched sub-divisions within. Finds of pottery on the field surface indicate occupation extending from the late Iron Age to the Roman period.,Y 2230,"The site of the probable kiln near Copperas Point, Dell Quay was established by the geomagnetic survey enabling subsequent intrusive examination to be precisely targeted. A second smaller magnetic response to the west of the main kiln anomaly probably represets a further feature associated with the kiln. Other responses detected in the survey area are probably not archeologically significant. The remaining area of the suvey shows no intense magnetic response.",Y 2231,"The magnetometer survey was useful in identifying the existence of a metal pipe very close to the 'temple' but has been of limited success possibly as a result of the local soil conditions and the unfortunate distortion of two grids of data. The magnetic results combined with the aerial photographs and the previous earth resistance results, however, have provided some evidence of circular and rectilinear features in the survey area. The survey does show some localised positive magnetic responses in the area of the square temple building as previously defined by the earth resistance which may be indicative of internal features of the temple structure. These structures could possibly represent heated areas as might be expected in a Roman building. This magnetic survey has provided some useful additional information which can be used to supplement the previous resistance data.",N 2232,"Despite poor ground conditions the survey was able to identify a possible enclosure and a series of parallel ditches. The exact route of the Roman Road is still unclear but the survey suggests a track way could be present running alongside the road. Archaeological activity in the form of enclosures, boundary ditches and possible pits was evident in the area and merits further investigation to extend the poorly understood nature of this possible Roman Mansio.",N 2249,"Both techniques have produced anomalies that relate to the mapped earthworks, with the data representing a combination of hanks and ditches. In addition, numerous anomalies of possible interest have been identified suggesting the presence of enclosure ditches, trackways and pits (magnetic data); denuded banks, building platforms and foundations (resistance data); and possible garden features (both data sets). In many cases, the patterns formed by the responses strongly supports an archaeological origin, but interpretation of some of the isolated or less coherent anomalies is more cautious. Both data sets clearly show several periods of activity at the site, but it had not been possible to associate groups of responses with specific phases. Additionally, it is suggested that some of the anomalies may represent features that have been re-used (e.g. areas of occupation subsequently remodelled as garden features).",N 2250,"The magnetic data are dominated by ferrous anomalies/areas of magnetic disturbance and have provided little information regarding the potential archaeology at the site. The resistance survey has revealed a number of responses of possible archaeological interest, suggesting areas of building debris and in situ structural remains. Some anomalies within the Inner Bailey (Area 1) can be related to known historic features. The origin of the potential features in the Outer Bailey (Areas 2 and 3) id less certain; while some are likely to relate to the main periods of occupation at the site (11th to 17th centuries), others may be the product of later post-medieval activities. Additionally some responses have been identified which reflect modern land use.",N 2251,"Magnetometry and earth resistance surveys were conducted around St Oswald¿s Church, Widford, Oxfordshire to investigate both the source of damp affecting the N wall of the church and to identify any archaeological remains in the vicinity. There was no geophysical evidence for land drains, broken or otherwise, to the N of the church but an area of low resistance is thought to be associated with a nearby spring. A concentration of anomalies around the church is indicative of settlement activity, though the responses were not clear enough to suggest to what period they may relate.",N 2252,"A high sample density Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) survey was conducted over an area of 2.6ha covering a group of Roman masonry buildings, revealed by previous magnetic and earth resistance survey at the Dunkirt Barn villa establishment. The use of this technique over such a large area is comparatively rare, but proved extremely successful due to the highly responsive conditions at the site and allowed for the detailed 3-dimensional visualisation of the buried remains. Excavation by the Danebury Environs Roman Project provided confirmation of the GPR anomalies and enhanced the interpretation of the geophysical data. Analysis of the very near surface GPR data revealed apparent evidence for plough damage to the masonry remains and suggested a semi-quantitative model to monitor this attrition based on the density of recorded high-amplitude reflectors.",N 2253,"Magnetometer and earth resistance surveys were conducted in a field on headland of Whitby's eroding East Cliff where excavations in 2001 had demonstrated the presence of a complex archaeological sequence. The results of the magnetometer survey indicated areas of enhancement and some strong pit type anomalies that might be evidence for settlement. However, neither technique recorded a response to either the known Iron Age round house or any further similar structures.",N 2254,"The survey, conducted to the SE side of the villa, covered an area of 0.09ha and included small areas of mown grass and a metalled road. The magnetometer survey mainly recorded responses to ferrous material. The earth resistance and GPR surveys successfully recorded the main sewer along with some other potential utility lines. Some anomalies may potentially relate to archaeological features such as a floor surface and former road.",Y 2255,"A geophysical survey was carried out over 1.4ha covering a complex of Iron Age and Romano-British enclosures previously identified from aerial photographs. The survey was conducted as a training exercise, for a volunteer group from Chichester District Archaeological Society (CDAS), as part of a community based archaeological excavation led by Chichester District Council. The results of the survey indicate a series of enclosure ditches, extending evidence from the linear evaluation trenches.",N 2256,"An attempt was made to locate the Roman Temple and Iron-Age Shrine seen in aerial photographs, and use a resistivity survey to evaluate their current state. Resistivity results suggested good preservation, but a precise location was only possible within an arbitrary but re-locatable 'floating grid'.

A number of resistance anomalies were identified, some of which were related to extant earthwork features and some to marks visible on aerial photographs. One are of high resistance suggests a possible wall remnant. The gradiometry results indicate some linear anomalies, a possible area of burning, some discrete puts and isolated metal fragments together with areas of possible building debris scatters. Whist the topography and the geophysics show previous use of the site, no dates or purposes could be assigned to any of the features noted.",N 2222,"A GPR survey was conducted on the yard adjacent to the east façade of Ditherington Flax Mill ahead of restoration work to the building during which scaffolding would be erected in the yard. A number of voids, possible structures and areas of disturbed ground were located.",Y 2234,"Magnetometer and earth resistance surveys were conducted the access track to the main site as part of an evaluation into the siting of proposed new visitor facilities. There was no clear evidence for archaeological features within the survey area. However, the possibility remains that there may be some concealed beneath sand deposits recorded across the centre of the survey area.",N 2193,Magnetometer and earth resistance surveys were conducted on the grassed area around the chapel remains. Possible sections of boundary wall and ditch have been detected.,Y 2259,"Potentially, the north western corner of the large marching camp has been identified. A clear curving ditch can be seen, which joins with a linear ditch, however this interpretation must be treated with caution as other explanations, such as field boundaries, cannot be ruled out. In fact, a number of other linear responses have been identified as former field divisions. Possible pit-type anomalies within the data may be of archaeological interest. The current direction of ploughing can be seen throughout the data. Ferrous disturbance along the southern boundary is caused by the effects of the current warehouse buildings. Other similar responses are also likely to have a modern origin.",N 2260,"A geophysical (earth resistance and magnetometer) survey carried out as part of a Local Heritage Initiative project at Barwick in Elmet hillfort, a Scheduled Ancient Monument, has not provided any evidence for the presence of stone structures in the bailey area to the southern end of the hillfort although discrete magnetic anomalies could be due to infilled pits or areas of burning. However, given the unrestricted access to the site it is considered more probable that these anomalies are due to modern activity.",N 2261,"Several archaeological type responses have been noted in the western half of the survey area. They comprise two strong linear type anomalies which may indicate activity associated with the civilian settlement outside Brancaster Fort, or possibly the limits of the settlement. However, given the proximity of the coastal marshes they could represent former creeks or channels. Several trends in the same area suggest a rectilinear enclosure with a possible subdivision. The strength of these anomalies is such that a natural or agricultural explanation is plausible, however, the archaeologically rich nature of the environs suggest they too could be associated with Roman activity in the area. Weak trends and isolated anomalies were noted throughout the data and although an archaeological origin is possible, natural or pedological variations in the subsoil may account for all or some of these responses. Small areas of magnetic disturbance may also have some archaeological significance, however, the nature of these anomalies is such that a modern origin would be assumed in an area of less archaeological potential.",N 2262,Magnetometer and earth resistance surveys were conducted to the south of Howgrave Hall in advance of a proposed development. Several weak anomalies have been identified which could be of archaeological interest.,Y 2263,"Geophysical survey was conducted at three locations within the Castle Garth as part of a community-based conservation and research project funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund. Numerous anomalies have been identified in both the magnetometer and resistance surveys but the majority are due to extant earthworks.",Y 2264,"Resistance and magnetometer surveys were carried our over and around a mound believed to be a Bronze Age barrow at Little Ponton, Lincolnshire. The survey did not detect any evidence for a circular quarry ditch around the mound. This lack of evidence for a quarry ditch would normally call into doubt its description as a barrow. However, the survey has detected unusual rectilinear features around the mound which at this stage are not fully understood and difficult to interpret. There are many small anomalies in both the magnetic and resistance data but most of these are likely to be caused by the extensive bunny activity on and around the mound. All the anomalies detected by this survey have the potential to be geological in origin.",N 2265,"The survey produced results that may, tentatively, suggest several isolated large anomalies. These anomalies may represent a period of occupation on the site, possibly industrial working but may also be geological in origin.",N 2266,"The survey has been successful in showing that there are substantial buried wall footings surviving below the current depth of ploughing on the site. The survey is unable to confirm from which phase of building, modification or re-use of the site the surviving remains date. However, the report of a wall seen just below the surface during 2006 would suggest the remains belong to a high status building.",N 2267,"The survey produced results that show three pit-like anomalies in the south-west corner of the field. These anomalies may represent a period of occupation on the site, possible industrial working. They also have the potential to be geomorphological in origin. The survey also detected what appears to be evidence of cultivation, and this would appear not to respect the adjacent road know as High Dyke so may be earlier that the resent course of this road.",N 2268,"The survey results suggest that anomalies of 'potential archaeological interest' have been located within the surveyed area. There is clear evidence of several ditch type features that could be interpreted as excavations associated with buried services or field drainage. Amongst these possible service trenches may also be evidence of an earlier field boundary ditch. The hypothesis for buried services is substantiated by the close proximity of residential development to the survey area and the high amount of electrical noise and interference experienced during the survey. There do not seem to be any anomalies that would suggest buried structural features. However, there may be evidence of structures below the maximum depth of this survey. Other geophysical techniques may reveal anomalies not detected by resistance surveying.

High resistance anomalies within the resistivity survey suggest the presence of structural remains as does the presence of high-energy responses within the GPR data.,N 2272,"A Ground Probing Radar (GPR) survey was carried out over three separate areas at Mary le Port, Bristol. The survey has located areas of possible archaeological interest in all three areas.

Numerous planar responses have also been observed which may indicate a former ground surface or landscaping.",N 2273,"A detailed magnetic and earth resistance survey were carried out on land adjacent to Norton Priory, Cheshire. Both surveys identified features of archaeological origin. The magnetometer survey highlighted a number of cut features of possible archaeological origin, potentially relating to pits or ditches.

Both surveys identified features of archaeological origin. The resistance survey clearly pocked up the extents of the visible earthwork enclosure, along with other areas of high resistance which could indicate further structural remains, with possible weak evidence of a further enclosure to the north east of the existing enclosure. A distinct cut feature was highlighted in the magnetometer survey running parallel with the north east side of the earthwork which could represent part of the moat surrounding the enclosure. Further cut features identified may be pits or ditches of archaeological origin.",N 2276,"A gradiometer survey was carried out over 1.1ha of land adjacent to St Leonard's Priory, Stamford. Anomalies have been located which are consistent with the surviving earthworks. Other anomalies have also been identified which may have an archaeological origin.

In the north of the site two strong magnetic anomalies are seen which are likely to relate to services.",N 2277,"A reconnaissance magnetic susceptibility and magnetometer scanning survey were carried out over 14ha of scrub land adjacent to Norton Priory, Cheshire. Based on these results an area of 1ha was selected to target with detailed magnetic survey and resistance survey.

Others in the north of the site are less clear and would require further investigation to clarify their exact origins.",N 2278,"Both techniques utilised were successful in locating anomalies that may be of archaeological significance. The resistivity survey located several relatively high resistance anomalies that are probably associated to structural remains. Low resistivity anomalies found may relate to pits dug behind the castle walls. The GPR survey also located anomalies characteristic of structural remains, particularly next to the south-eastern extent of the survey. Other anomalies that are of a smaller amplitude were also discovered that may also be related to past structures such as floors and small walls. There was a high level of correlation between the two data sets. This further strengthens the argument for structural remains existing on the site. It is also worth nothing that each method located anomalies that the other did not, highlighting the advantages of a multi-technique survey.",N 2279,"The survey results suggest that anomalies of 'potential archaeological interest' have been located within the surveyed area. There is one clear high resistance linear anomaly that could be associated with the neighbouring walled gardens of Grantham house. There is evidence of several ditch type features that could be interpreted as excavations associated with buried services, field drainage or previous use. All the anomalies detected by this survey have the potential to be geological in origin.",N 2280,"An earth resistance survey using mobile probe separations of 0.5m and 1.0m, covering an area of approximately 0.1 hectares, was carried out within part of the Scheduled Ancient Monument at Manor Lodge, Sheffield. No anomalies that are thought to have an archaeological origin have been identified.",N 2281,"The resistivity survey was conducted in the gardens of Asgill House, Old Palace Lane and Trumpeters House, Old Palace Yard and in the gardens of Trumpeters Inn. A number of subterranean features were detected, including sections of the western and northern arms of the palace moat. Several sections of walling were interpreted from the data, some of which could relate to the medieval manor of Shene.",Y 2282,"This report presents the results of a geophysical survey undertaken at the site of Clausentum, Bitterne Park Manor in Southampton, in May 2003. The work was carried out in part to evaluate the location and extent of the Roman settlement on the site, and as a trial of integrated geophysical survey strategy in an urban context. It also provided the opportunity to train a number of students from the Department of Geophysical Sciences of the University of Southampton. The report specifies the geophysical survey methodology together with the archaeological interpretation and discussion of the results. The survey at Clausentum was successful in locating a number of discrete archaeological features associated with the Roman fort and settlement.",N 2283,"This survey was conducted in the grounds of the Berwick Middle School (formerly the Berwick County Grammar School), and consisted of two areas S1 & S2, neither showed any positive features. Survey S1 was conducted in an effort to locate a feature seen on a Hatfield map running from the Bulwark at the corner tower westwards. Survey area S2 was chosen to test a theory that a medieval roadway may have crossed the Spades Mire somewhere within the grounds of the Berwick Middle School. Some amorphous features were observed and would require excavation for identification.",N 2284,"The east entrance to the medieval twelfth century town of Berwick upon Tweed was by way of the Cow Port Gate thought to be located directly outside the present Elizabethan Cow Port Gate on an area called the Stanks. There are different recorded interpretations on earlier maps as to the true location of the medieval entrance and the joining medieval wall. This survey was conducted to try and locate the original Edwardian Medieval Wall. I believe this has been achieved, and may also help in the possible location of the original Medieval Cow Port Gate. An initial survey was conducted by Dr Bruce Hobbs of Edinburgh University, this comprised two traverses of twenty metres designated A and B. From this it was deduced that a morphology exist beneath the surface. The tomographic survey was able to penetrate to a depth of two point five metres. The readings indicate a linear feature that may show the line of the medieval wall, only excavation would resolve this. Surveys S1 to S5 are extremely good indicators of what may lay under the Stanks, and to this we now add S6 and the Hatfield Map.",N 2298,"On first appraisal, the geophysics seems dominated by a series of concentrically curved features, originally thought to be potential archaeology, but now suspected to be geology. A number of features do appear to be present, including a rectilinear feature near the crest of the hill (potential foundations), some low resistance features in the northern sector (potential pits), some circular features in the north-eastern area )potential hut bases), and some linear features (potential boundaries). The feature identified in the SR as a pillow mound appears to be part of the defences of the hillfort. Only a full archaeological excavation of the site would fully establish the presence of buildings or other features in this area, however it is likely limited investigations down to the first archaeology could indicate if the hillfort were reoccupied in the 5th century AD.",N 2299,"This report summarises the intentions and results of a geophysical survey carried out in Moat Field, Nether Poppleton, York. The survey was part of an ongoing project being carried out byPoppleton Archaeology Group. The survey had specific research objectives and was also aimed at involving and engaging the public in archaeological techniques. The survey was successful in that it provided people with an opportunity to learn how to lay out grids and handle the equipment. The results of the survey revealed areas of high resistance and some possible linear anomalies.",N 2300,"A detailed topographical survey and a fluxgate gradiometer geophysical survey were carried out on land located outside of the eastern entrance to Cissbury Ring hillfort, Findon, West Sussex. The topographical survey has mapped and recorded features within the surveyed area and the geophysical survey, although hampered by vegetation, has identified some anomalies that may be of archaeological interest. In addition a 30m x 30m grid square was surveyed using the fluxgate gradiometer on top of an adjacent hill where the reservoir may be positioned. It was positioned to the west side of the currently used track.",N 2301,"The survey was able to clarify the nature of certain responses detected in previous areas and identified a number of new anomalies of archaeological interest. In Area 3, the continuation of two former boundary features has been mapped and the probable remains of a third tumulus have been identified. A boundary noted on 18th century estate maps has been detected in Area 8, along with several ditch type anomalies, on different alignments, suggesting enclosures and parts of former field systems. Some of these do not appear to respect the substantial linear earthwork known as the Bulwark cutting off the head of the promontory suggesting several phases of activity at the site.",Y 2321,The geophysical survey was successful in locating previously undiscovered ditches in the environs of the hill-slope enclosure and dense activity in the form of numerous pit-type responses within the inner earthwork enclosure. Several road corridors within the inner enclosure are evident as linear zones free of pit disturbance. An internal quarry ditch was located on the inside of the rampart of the inner emclosure with a suggestion of a second less well defined ditch outside the rampart. Areas of the larger outer enclosure sampled by the magnetometer survey appear far emptier of internal activity. The magnetic mapping of the outworks of the site revealed a D-shaped enclosure which contained an internal magnetic signature typical of a thermo-remanent feature. Multi-period occupation and evolution of the monument is strongly suggested by the survey results and the topographical location is not consistent with a typical hill-fort or a primarily defensive function.,Y 2322,The surveys displayed several features that are most likely to be archaeological in origin. Interpretation shows both magnetometry and resistivity locating pits and geological features within the bedrock. Both surveys highlighted the presence of two linear anomalies visible as two banks from ground level. The magnetic susceptibility survey produced concentrations of enhanced values in the north-east corner of the interior. The anomalies located suggest the hillfort to have minimal or short term occupation. The higher resolution surveys resulted in an obvious increase in detail and quality aiding the interpretability of the data.,Y 2323,"Geophysical surveys were carried out to investigate the remains of two probable Neolithic long barrows at Maiden Castle, Winterborne Monkton and Sheep Down, Winterbourne Steepleton, Dorset. The surveys, using both fluxgate magnetometer and earth resistance techniques, were conducted to provide training for a group of local volunteers working in conjunction with the Dorset Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty Partnership who had previously undertaken topographical recording of the monuments. The geophysical surveys successfully characterised both barrows suggesting that the two are rather different in size, construction and form; one probably representing a typical earthen long barrow with substantial in-filled side and rear quarry ditches; and the second lacking evidence of ditches, but with a possible stone construction surrounding the perimeter of the mound and an internal high resistance anomaly that may represent a stone chambered structure.",N 2324,"A geophysical survey was carried out over the scheduled site (SAM No. NT139) to the south of the former Augustinian Priory at Shelford Manor, Shelford, Nottinghamshire, which contains a wealth of crop mark activity identified from the aerial photographic (AP) record. An area of 8.5ha was covered by a caesium magnetometer survey and successfully identified a wide range of anomalies to complement and extend the existing AP evidence. The site would appear to represent a palimpsest of prehistoric and Romano-British enclosures, with the later phase of activity being more fully represented in the geophysical data. This survey was undertaken as part of a collaborative research project to compare different geophysical methods for archaeological and mineral resource evaluation funded through the Aggregate Levy Sustainability Fund.",N 2325,"A geophysical survey was conducted within the Keep Yard, Dover Castle, Kent to determine whether any evidence for former buildings remains or drainage features associated with the medieval castle could be revealed. Magnetic, earth resistance and ground penetrating radar (GPR) surveys were used, although every technique was in part hampered by the physical restrictions of the site. Linear anomalies possibly associated with historic drainage features and former building remains were revealed by the earth resistance survey and these were, partially, corroborated by the GPR data. Comparison with historic mapping data suggests some of the anomalies are comparatively recent and more significant remains may well, perhaps, have been obscured to geophysical techniques through the subsequent levelling of the site.",N 2326,"A magnetometer survey was conducted over the partially submerged and buried remains of the wreck of The Anne in an inter-tidal area off the coast of Pett Level in Rye Bay, East Sussex. The survey successfully revealed a distinct area of strong ferrous response delimiting the probable extent of the remnants of the ship as well as providing up-dated GPS coordinates of her location.",N 2327,"A pilot survey was conducted at Marden Henge to assess the geophysical response with a view to surveying the monument in its entirety as part of a wider research project. Earth resistance and magnetometer survey were shown to provide complementary results, recording anomalies relating to the bank and ditch of the henge enclosure and also the ditch of the Hatfield Barrow.",N 2328,"In 2006 English Heritage undertook a multidisciplinary research project to examine the garden at Ashby de la Zouch Castle. The aim was to gain a better understanding of the nature, date and context of the garden in order to enhance visitor experience through the production of a new guidebook and on-site interpretation. The research involved analytical earthwork survey, coring, geophysical survey and excavations, supported by a programme of documentary research. This report draws together the various strands of research and aims to provide the reader with a single report from which they can gain a synthetic overview of the results. All technical reports and methodologies are incorporated as appendices, including the specialist fids reports. The research has demonstrated that the garden was once part of a wider designed landscape that probably had its origins in the late medieval period. Whilst it is possible that the garden buildings were constructed by the 1st Earl of Huntingdon in the mid-1500s as a way of displaying his wealth and status, the surviving garden earthworks are likely to be a product of several redesigns, particularly in the late 16th or earlier 17th century when there are a number of possible historical contexts for their creation. The research has shown that the sunken areas of the garden were not ponds, though geometric water gardens were constructed to the west of the castle. Excavations also revealed the foundations of a probable third garden building and evidence of the castle's Civil War defences. The castle and garden are an English Heritage guardianship site.",N 2329,"A geophysical survey was conducted at Piggledene, North Farm, Overton, Wilts., over the proposed site of a field experiment to determine a model for the formation of the old land surface layer observed during recent excavation at Silbury Hill. Soils at the site match parent material underlying the old land surface layer at Silbury and the current geophysical survey was requested to select an area with a minimal likelihood of disturbing any existing archaeological remains. Magnetic survey undertaken with fluxgate gradiometers revealed a number of linear anomalies, possibly associated with a late-prehistoric field system or, more probably, medieval ridge and furrow. Other discrete pit-type responses and negative linear anomalies were recorded, but these are probably related to field clearance activities. The survey has identified a suitable area for establishing the field test site and confirmed, through a topographic survey, that the slope of the terrain falls within the desired range for the experiment.",N 2330,"A geophysical survey was conducted in the vicinity of the partially excavated Roman villa at Batten Hanger, West Sussex, to inform the ongoing management of the site following an increased threat from ploughing to the previously stable remains. Magnetometer and earth resistance surveys were undertaken to help further define the extent of the archaeological activity. No obvious additional building remains were detected, but the magnetometer survey has defined an area of potentially significant magnetic disturbance extending for up to 160m to the north of the known villa. Earth resistance survey, targeted over the area of magnetic disturbance, was less informative although both survey techniques have identified the course of a roadway running into the villa complex from the south.",N 2331,"A geophysical survey was conducted over the western section and terminal of the Stonehenge Greater Cursus to inform a proposed programme of archaeological excavation by the Stonehenge Riverside Project. The magnetometer survey was restricted by the presence of later ferrous disturbance, but successfully identified ditch-type anomalies associated with the side of the Cursus and a previously known earthwork cutting obliquely across the monument in the area cleared through the Fargo Plantation. Resistance survey proved more effective for imaging the plough degraded banks of the Cursus, where they approach the western terminal of the monument, and also recovered evidence of a levelled round barrow (Winterbourne Stoke 30). Both geophysical techniques responded very strongly to the presence of buried wire mesh forming part of a reinstated section of the terminal bank at the western end of the monument.",N 2332,"Geophysical surveys were conducted at two sites in support of the ongoing Stonehenge Riverside Project. The first, a magnetometer and earth resistance survey at West Amesbury, was undertaken in an attempt to determine the course of the Stonehenge Avenue, but no convincing geophysical evidence for the continuation of this monument was found. The second magnetometer survey, over part of the Stonehenge Greater Cursus adjacent to Fargo Plantation, investigated an area where finds of bluestone chippings had been reported. No significant anomalies were detected in the area of the recorded bluestone finds, but possible pit-type responses were detected on the line of the Cursus.",N 2336,"Detailed gradiometer and earth resistance surveys were undertaken over approximately two hectares of land at St Augustine's Abbey, Canterbury. The gradiometer was very magnetically noisy and was unsuccessful in identifying any features of archaeological origin. The earth resistance survey identified distinct areas of high resistance which are concentrated around the south west of the site and are probably related to structural remains. Areas of low resistance which are observed predominantly in the east of the site may be caused by cut features such as ditches of possible archaeological origin. The ground depression on the site of the lay cemetery may be caused by collapsed sub surface structural remains, although this is not entirely clear. Areas of human remains have not been positively identified in this survey.",N 2337,The geophysical survey undertaken over an area of playing fields at St Philomena's School Carshalton has identified a number of anomalies of an archaeological origin. The gradiometer survey has located a number of cut features representing pits and ditches. The resistance data has identified structural remains which may date to the Roman period.,N 2338,"The gradiometer, resistance and GPR results display a fair degree of correlation and the combination of the three techniques has assisted in the analysis of the, somewhat complicated, data sets. Many of the recorded anomalies can be attributed to services and the scant remains of buildings relating to the military use of the site in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Some responses in the resistance and GPR data may represent earlier features of archaeological interest, but interpretation of these is more cautious die to the disturbance from the aforementioned modern activity. The GPR has mapped not only the large Rainwater Tanks (cause of recent subsidence) and an array of potential services routes (of uncertain antiquity) but also some strong responses at depth; these appear to be different in nature to the aforementioned cisterns and thus the likelihood of further large chambers being present is thought to be low.",N 2356,"Geophysical survey was carried out over a series of earthworks in Haydons Field, East Harptree, Somerset, thought to be the remains of a shrunken medieval settlement. Results from a magnetometer survey enhanced the interpretation of the recorded earthwork features and suggested evidence for the location of linear property boundaries, the layout of streets and possible building remains. Earth resistance survey provided some useful additional detail including evidence of a further roadway not clearly resolved in the magnetic data. The geophysical survey suggests that the modern village of East Harptree retains the street plan of the earlier Medieval settlement in Haydons Field.",N 2357,This report covers topographical and geophysical surveys at seven known Neolithic sites in the area of the Upper Gypsey Race (Great Wold) Valley. Existing archives were reassessed and new radiocarbon dates taken. Some low-lying areas were sampled to assess their palaeoenvironmental potential. The project has successfully thrown light on well known but poorly researched monuments.,N 2358,"A magnetic survey was conducted over the site of an Iron Age ditched enclosure, known as the Headlands Enclosure near the village of West Overton, Wiltshire. The monument, bisected by an historic field boundary, was originally identified through aerial photography and has been the subject of a previous partial fluxgate magnetometer survey. Renewed access arrangements allowed the current survey to be conducted over an area of -4.8ha encompassing the entire monument and a number of crop marks, including the site of possible timber buildings, visible to the W of the enclosure. The survey was conducted with an array of high sensitivity caesium magnetometers that produced a wealth of significant anomalies to complement the previous geophysical survey and AP record. The resulting magnetic dataset has enhanced the interpretation of the Headlands Enclosure and will inform the ongoing preservation of the monument through the Countryside Stewardship Scheme.",N 2359,"A geophysical survey was conducted over the location of a segment of tessellated pavement partially uncovered following metal detector finds in an arable field at Queen Camel, Somerset. Magnetometer and earth resistance surveys were undertaken to help further define the extent and character of the Roman activity, and to inform the on-going management of the site in light of the potential threat from plough damage and un-supervised treasure hunting. The geophysical surveys revealed the presence of a large, aisled hall type Roman building containing the mosaic and apparently set within a more extensive system of angular ditched enclosures.",N 2360,"A ground penetrating radar (GPR) survey was conducted over two trial areas at Grime's Graves, Norfolk, to identify suitable targets for investigation and sampling by a powered soil auger. The aim of the GPR survey was to provide more detailed information, including an estimation of depth, for a series of archaeological and geomorphological anomalies recognised through previous topographic, magnetic and earth resistance surveys. The GPR data were interpreted in the field to allow the auger survey to be conducted in conjunction with the geophysical survey and a number of suitable targets, including periglacial sand-filled stripes and possible further flint mining activity, were successfully identified. Conditions at the site proved to be particularly suitable for the GPR with good signal penetration to a depth of approximately 5m and allowed a detailed model of the buried palaeo-surface to be derived from the data set.",N 2361,"A caesium magnetometer survey was undertaken to investigate the wider setting of the Roman villa remains at Brading, Isle of Wight, to assist with an on-going programme of excavation. This work extends the previous fluxgate magnetometer surveys at the site conducted in 1994-5 and demonstrates a continuation of ditch-type anomalies, possibly defining field boundaries, enclosures and track-ways in the wider landscape around the villa. This activity may either be associated directly with the Roman buildings or, could possibly represent Iron Age settlement predating the development of the villa. The survey also located a previously unknown group of ring-ditches further to the west of the villa, suggestive of prehistoric funerary monuments or perhaps, a series of outlying Romano-British shrines.",N 2363,"Six sites close to the village of Bamburgh were surveyed with magnetometry to determine if two prominent mounds were burial tumuli, to locate any ecclesiastical features associated with the Augustinian Priory, Dominican Friary and associated leper hospital and to identify any remaining features of the medieval village such as boundaries, tofts, buildings, tracks or roads. Two areas of medieval significance proved productive, the survey of two tumuli suggest further investigation is warranted and a large prehistoric/medieval enclosure was discovered, now known colloquially as the Bamburgh Egg.",Y 2364,"A geophysical survey was conducted over the site and adjacent areas of Slack Roman Fort with the purpose of confirming the position and orientation of the fort and to determine the extent of the vicus area and the activities within it, as well as identifying any interpretable anomalies in the vicinity of the Golf Club House. The survey also covered the southwest interior of the fort that has never been excavated. The survey corroborated previous archaeological evidence for the position and orientation of the fort but did not confirm the accepted line of the vicus or annex boundary. The survey did suggest that the vicus on the east side of the fort may be more extensive than previously thought. The possible position of the praetorium was also identified in the southwest corner of the fort.",Y 2365,Various archaeological investigations were undertaken of Castle Pool in advance of the desilting of this section of the castle moat. One of these investigations was a radar survey undertaken across the base of the pool. The radar survey identified that the base of the pool rises towards the west end and confirmed a structure identified through probing is solid and that it does not project more than about 5m from the south pool edge. It also appears that the pool is leaking at its east end where it once joined the mill pool and city ditch.,Y 2366,"A geophysical survey, comprising both magnetometer and earth resistance, was carried out over part of the former precinct of Byland Abbey, North Yorkshire (Monument No. 13279) as part of a wider research project investigating the area through analytical earthwork survey. Three possible structures have been identified in both surveys although all correlate to a certain extent with the mapped earthworks. In general the resistance survey had provided the most detail with all the major earthworks clearly defined as well as boundaries shown on early Ordnance Survey mapping. The magnetometer survey proved less able to distinguish the earthworks or other modern features/activity due to the presence of superficial drift deposits of alluvium to the north of the site and boulder clay over the remainder.",N 2367,"Magnetometer and topographical surveys were conducted across a bowl barrow and causewayed enclosure at Little Trees Hill, Magog Down, Cambridgeshire. Survey detected a possible ring ditch/bank beneath the eroded sides of the barrow, together with a possible core to the feature. A single-ditched enclosure with 13 causeways was detected around the 65m contour.",N 2368,"The study area comprised a well-preserved Roman fort (Epiacum) and its surroundings near Alston. The geophysical surveys have successfully detected a range of anomalies across most parts of the study area, which have helped to characterise former landuse in different areas at different times. For example, the anomalies variously reflect the remains of the fort wall and ramparts, intra-mural buildings, areas of probable vicus and official extra-mural buildings, several roads both within and outside the fort, possible pre-Roman settlement, agricultural features including probable potato-beds and ridge and furrow, post-medieval buildings and possible evidence for mining activities. Several phases of activity can be interpreted including at least two phases of significant re-modelling of defences and other structures around the fort's southern corner.",Y 2369,"Gradiometer survey recorded a high level of background noise over much of the site due to the existing services, nineteenth century landscaping and standing features. Despite widespread disturbance, a number of archaeological anomalies were detected, most indicating the likely presence of structural foundations and a small number of possible ditches. Several pit/hearth responses were recorded, though their archaeological interpretation is less certain. The resistance results show a strong correlation with the gradiometer data in terms of underlying structural foundations. Several discrete areas of high an low resistance have been detected, and while it is likely they have an archaeological origin, modern interference cannot be excluded.",N 2370,"Resistance survey adjacent to the Nymphaeum failed to locate any anomalies associated with Roman drains or Victorian water pipes. This may be due to the resolution of the technique. Alternatively it is possible that such features lie beneath the modern path which could not be surveyed. Gradiometer scanning failed to identify any anomalies consistent with areas of burning associated with the villa. The GPR survey has identified several reflections of possible interest. While many of these are clearly defined and likely to be archaeological in origin, some are less well defined and are denoted as areas of disturbance. These could relate to natural material in the subsoil or archaeological material such as building demolition. Of particular interest are suggestions of several possible linear features, which may represent Roman drains or modern services.",N 2371,"A 20m grid square within the garden court was surveyed with earth resistance survey using mobile probe spacings of 0.5m, 0.75m and 1.0m - previous survey only utilised a 0.5m probe spacing but it has since been shown that deposits may exist below 1m from the surface so deeper penetration was required. Two sets of anomalies of interest were recorded: a possible path and two drains or water channels. Some of these anomalies are clearer in the deeper penetrating data sets.",N 2372,"Further geophysical investigations were conducted at Chedworth Roman Villa which recorded a number of features of archaeological interest - mainly relating to paths, drainage features and possible wall foundations.",N 2373,"A caesium magnetometer survey was undertaken to investigate the wider setting of the Roman villa remains at Brading, Isle of Wight, to assist with an on-going programme of excavation.

The initial impetus for the survey was to assist with the location of a works compound required for remedial repairs to the monument, begun in 2007, following the partial collapse of earlier investigative tunnels dug into the hill. The survey area covered with a high-sensitivity caesium magnetometer array was subsequently expanded and successfully revealed a wealth of archaeologically significant anomalies, including what appears to be a larger Roman settlement at the site than had previously been recognised. Additional areas of earth resistance and ground penetrating radar were also conducted to investigate specific anomalies, some thought to be masonry buildings. Finally, an attempt was made to profile sections through the ditch surrounding the monument with a combination of earth resistance tomography and radar transects.",N 2394,"A geophysical survey was undertaken over the scheduled site of Wickham Court Farm, a purported Roman roadside settlement that has been regularly targeted by illegal metal detectorists. Caesium magnetometry and earth resistance surveys detected various anomalies relating to the Roman road and other responses indicative of industrial activity but only revealed limited evidence for structural remains. These, in combination with a lack of a pattern of enclosure ditches indicates that though this stretch of the Roman road provided a focus for activity, there was not a significant settlement here: the possibility of a focus for metal work production may instead be the reason why this site been of such interest to metal detectorists.",N 2395,"A geophysical survey was undertaken across the bailey of Bramber castle to try to clarify the nature of buried remains, some of which had been hinted at by previous excavations. The survey successfully located numerous anomalies of likely structural origin, particularly towards the north of the bailey area against the curtain wall.",Y 2396,Geophysical survey was undertaken over a known barrow site and extended to the east to cover the suspected site of a second barrow. The survey clearly detected both the mound and ditch of the extant barrow and in addition revealed the location of a similar size ditch to the west confirming the location of the second barrow.,Y 2397,"A group of three barrows on Sutton Common, West Sussex, were surveyed in advance of measures to protect the monuments against burrowing animals. Results from the easternmost barrow revealed responses to the ditch and mound but the two other barrows were not so clearly defined. It is thought the sandy geology in addition to modern activity in the near vicinity restricted the scope of the results.",Y 2398,"A detailed magnetic survey, resistance survey and radar survey were carried out over two areas of land at Cleeve Abbey, totalling 1100m2. The detailed magnetic survey data has shown mainly weak responses making it difficult to write a clear interpretation. The resistance survey shows high contrast linear and area responses forming rectilinear anomalies indicating the preservation of building remains in both Area 1 and Area 2. This has been supported by linear features observed within the radar data and numerous isolated discrete responses suggesting that there may be an amount of small material debris buried at the site. Evidence has been observed that may suggest the presence of burials, both in Area 1, as expected, but also Area 2. A likely non-metallic service has also been identified running through Area 2.",N
