Abstract: |
The resistance data show a series of linear and rectilinear high resistance anomalies, all suggestive of building remains and the gradiometer data indicate a corresponding area of magnetic noise. Although no clear plan is discernible in either dataset, the results confirm the general location of the White House, to the west of the Orangery. In the search for a 'lost serving tunnel' connecting the kitchens and the White House, the GPR survey identified a solid linear feature whose existence was confirmed by excavation, some 75cm below ground level. However, it was not possible to confirm that the brick feature is a tunnel. |
