Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
In 2012 a second season of geophysical and topographical survey was undertaken within Bourne Park, an area of open parkland about 6km south-east of Canterbury. Sites under investigation included land where cropmarks representing a probable Roman building had been observed, and an area where Roman coins and other artefacts had been recovered by metal detectorists. This paper constitutes an interim report on the geomagnetic results. The primary objective of the 2012 survey was to collect data to facilitate interpretation of the landscape context of the known features and analysis of the relationship between this site and other Roman sites in the wider area. Groups of geophysical anomalies were interpreted as several ditched enclosures, with internal features including a possible hearth or furnace, a possible burial mound, two wings of a structural complex of probable Roman date, possible Anglo-Saxon sunken-featured buildings, and walls and structures probably associated with 19th century landscaping. Some features visible in the aerial photographs did not respond well to geomagnetic survey, and a complementary campaign of earth-resistance and ground-penetrating radar survey has begun in areas where there is strong evidence for structural remains.
