Abstract: |
A geophysical survey was conducted in advance of a proposed development at Seghill, Cramlington. Evidence of ridge and furrow cultivation was found throughout much of the study area, indicating extensive farming from the medieval period to the present day. Additional soil filled features provided evidence for field boundaries associated with this earlier cultivation of land. Several additional soil filled features were identified across the site and almost certainly reflected former ditches and gullies. The presence/absence of artefact scatters and potentially significant individual artefacts were noted for each survey area. [Au(adp)] |
