Abstract: |
Within Area 1, there are a number of rectilinear high resistance responses characteristic of building foundations. Another group of high resistance anomalies, which are more amorphous, are also thought to be of archaeological potential. The data also contain two concentrations of ill-defined high resistance responses. Whilst these are thought to be of possible archaeological interest, such an interpretation is cautious. The data contain numerous linear and amorphous low resistance anomalies. These are attributed to modern and natural features. Survey within Areas 2 and 3 has recorded several high and low resistance anomalies but modern and natural origins are thought most probable. Within Area 4, a number of low resistance responses which display a degree of rectilinearity and appear to enclose a sub-rectangular area of high resistance readings. These may reflect former garden features, however, this is conjectural. The GPR survey, while producing two interesting data sets, failed to provide any anomalies that are conclusively archaeological in origin. |
