Abstract:
Parts of three pasture fields at the village of Bugthorpe were targeted with geophysical survey in two locations, Beck Row and Stephenwath Lane. Most of the village was designated as a Conservation Area that contained two moated sites and five Listed Buildings. Probable Iron Age square barrows and other finds suggested the presence of a cemetery to the south of the village. Cropmarks recorded on aerial photographs suggested extensive Romano-British settlement, also in the south. The survey aimed to locate any archaeological remains that may have been present at the sites of a proposed pumping station and a water treatment works. The work formed part of an archaeological assessment being undertaken by Northern Archaeological Associates. Resistance and gradiometer survey carried out at the two sites at Beck Row recorded anomalies that were mainly associated with topographic effects. In Area A a linear anomaly of archaeological interest was identified that may have represented a former boundary. Ferrous disturbance was found to be extensive and a pipe or service was recorded. The presence of a pond in the northern half of Area B hampered survey work. Magnetic linear anomalies and trends in the resistance data were recorded in the south. They may have been associated with medieval settlement but modern or natural influences on the data could not be discounted. Gradiometer survey at Stephenwath Lane detected two groups of anomalies. A series of north-south linear responses indicated the direction of past ridge and furrow cultivation. In addition, a number of broad and irregular responses were recorded that were considered to have been due to natural soil variations, though the possibility that they were of archaeological interest could not be ruled out entirely.
