Abstract: |
A detailed survey identified part of the course of a former Roman road either side of which a broad area of settlement activity had been detected. The latter extended throughout the majority of Area 1 and included a number of linear ditch type responses, several pit concentrations, and a bank of increased magnetic response of possible archaeological interest. Interpretation was complicated by high levels of magnetic response throughout the data, probably reflecting recent landscaping and modern ferrous debris. A series of faint linear trenches were also recorded, possibly indicating the location of a number of land drains. The volume magnetic susceptibility survey confirmed a high level of magnetic response throughout Area 1. However, it was not possible to differentiate between enhancement response caused by modern debris/land usage and archaeological activity. Several linear responses recorded in Area 2 may have been of significance. However, interpretation was complicated by extensive magnetic disturbance associated with current site boundaries.
