Abstract: |
Stratascan were commissioned by RPS to undertake a geophysical survey of an area outlined for the extension of a quarry. A trial survey of 20ha of magnetic susceptibility followed by 10ha of detailed magnetic survey was carried out over three areas. Following this a further 156ha of magnetic susceptibility was carried out with 32.5ha of detailed magnetic survey. Anomalies likely to be related to former settlements have been identified in Area 3, Area 9 and 10, and Area 11. Circular features have been observed in Area 2 and Area 21 which are also likely to have an archaeological origin. Area 2 also shows a rectangular feature probably of archaeological origin. Throughout the rest of the site there is evidence of extensive ridge and furrow ploughing activity. |
