Abstract: |
The resistance survey recorded a complex pattern of anomalies that was thought largely to represent variations in the soils and geology. Although no clear building plans emerged from the data, a number of linear trends that suggested rectangular structures were visible, and these were thought to have archaeological potential. These anomalies were targeted by excavations, and walls, rubble and robber trenches were uncovered. Low resistance was recorded in the vicinity of the site excavated in the 1900's, but no significant anomalies were detected. The gradiometer survey detected a number of pit type anomalies and short ditch lengths that are thought to be of archaeological interest. However, no recognisable archaeological pattern is visible in the data. The surveys did not provide any evidence to suggest the presence of a Roman road. |
