Abstract: |
Gradiometer results have produced anomalies that may potentially be associated with the Civil War defences and the Goring Great Garden Wall, within Areas 1 and 2 respectively. However, the majority of all the areas were magnetically disturbed due to service, drains and landscaping; these responses will have masked many features of archaeological interest, if present. The resistance results were slightly more informative, especially in Area 3, where a block of high resistance proved to be the base of steps associated with the ornamental canal. However, landscaping of the gardens and the services have had a detrimental effect on the survey results. GPR survey within the Quadrangle (Area 5) showed a complex of both modern and historic services. Within the deeper time-slices high amplitude responses correspond to excavations in 1744 and include walls of Arlington House and a central fountain. Survey within Area 3 correlates to the magnetic and resistance surveys as it shows features associated with the canal. Natural responses were also located which may suggest geological or landscaping features. |
