Abstract:		 Results from East Wall show an interesting pattern of strong anomalies in the orchard field, many of which are archaeological in nature. However, almost half of this area is disturbed magnetically by modern debris and the presence of a septic tank. The area to the southeast of the farm was also disturbed magnetically due to remains of a recently demolished farm building. Excavation of one well-defined magnetic anomaly revealed a medieval furnace giving strength to an archaeological interpretation for other responses highlighted in the survey. The area within the garden at Oldfurnace Cottage was small but still revealed strong anomalies associated with successive slag heaps. Other areas in the environs produced results that also indicated industrial type activity and this interpretation was confirmed by subsequent excavation.
