Abstract: |
<summary>A topographical and geophysical survey was undertaken at Lanchester Roman Fort, to compile a geomagnetic map and detailed ground survey of surviving walls, and to search for correlations between the two. The topographical survey revealed the ramparts, upcast mound from the hypocaust system, and a set of shallow linear grooves. The geomagnetic survey produced a striking internal layout of the fort, and suggests that the linear grooves may relate to a Roman or later drainage system. {italon}AIP{italoff} |
