Abstract: |
The small area of resistance survey appears to have defined the western limit of the cut feature identified during excavation. Further to the south a narrow high resistance response may be a continuation of the monastic boundary ditch. Gradiometry undertaken adjacent to the eastern edge of the trench did not provide any useful information due to severe magnetic distortion caused by reinforced concrete, buried services and metal fencing. GPR surveys in two places to the east of the excavation trench have produced some anomalies of possible archaeological interest. There is a suggestion of a broad linear feature which appears to correspond with the east-west monastic boundary ditch as well as a suggestion of a second ditch aligned approximately north-south. Within the second GPR area much of the data is distorted by reinforced concrete. However, two discrete anomalies are visible in the time slice image that may indicate buried structures, but of unknown date. |
