Abstract: |
A geophysical (magnetometer) survey covering approximately 6 hectares was carried out on behalf of the Environment Agency along a section of Pickering Beck in Newtondale prior to the commencement of groundworks for a bunded flood storage scheme, part of a project to protect Pickering from major flood events. Broad anomalies indicative of the former course of the beck or the deposition of alluvial material in episodes of flooding have been identified. Anomalies due to ploughing and a former field boundary are also present. No anomalies of probable archaeological origin have been identified and the site is consequently assessed as having a low archaeological potential. |
