Abstract: |
Geophysical surveys were undertaken over 12 areas in the northern part of Marne Barracks in order to identify the nature and extent of likely archaeological features. Geomagnetic, electrical resistivity and ground-probing radar techniques were used. The surveys detected several ditch features of possible archaeological interest as well as former RAF buildings. The majority of the ditch features were probably part of the former post-medieval field system, while the date and function of the other ditches was unknown. Some further investigation, such as trial trenching, many be necessary for these features. It should be noted that the magnetic effects of buildings and services could have been obscuring further features of archaeological interest. Similarly, it was possible that some archaeological features may have survived beneath existing buildings, particularly around the possible Roman villa site. [Au(abr)] |
