Abstract: |
In September 2016, Archaeological Solutions Ltd carried out a magnetic gradiometer survey on 4.15 hectares of land between the railway line, St Neots Bypass and Potton Road, St Neots, Cambridgeshire (NGR TL 1902 5837). The survey was commissioned to inform and support a planning application for a proposed residential development of 79 dwellings on the site. The survey identified four positive trending linear anomalies (1-4) that are of potential archaeological significance. A further positive anomaly was observed in the west of the survey area that corresponds to an historic field boundary (5). A series of parallel positive linear responses of varying amplitudes can be seen in the data (6), which may represent ploughed-out medieval ridge and furrow, or alternatively, may represent modern plough marks. |
