Abstract: |
The evaluation was undertaken on land threatened by the proposed M1/A1 Link Road. An area of 4 hectares was covered by a gradiometer and resistivity survey. The survey revealed an extensive multi-phase enclosure system, of possible Iron Age and/or Romano-British date, from which much larger parcels of land were joined. Other strong linear anomalies were seen across the whole of the site. These were the magnetic vestiges of the medieval practice of ridge and furrow ploughing. [Au(abr)] |
