Abstract: |
Northamptonshire Archaeology was commissioned to carry out magnetometer survey prior to the construction of two ponds at Cardington Airfield, Bedfordshire. Two blocks of land, with a total area of c 11.8ha, were subject to detailed magnetometer survey. This work located two discrete Iron Age or Romano-British enclosures and a cluster of small enclosures of similar date. Two possible kilns of unknown date were more tentatively identified. Many modern features were also located, including pipelines, railway track beds and an area of disturbed ground containing much ferrous debris. A third phase of magnetometer survey was commissioned to investigate an additional 4ha on the western side of Area 1. |
