Abstract: |
This report was commissioned by AC Archaeology Ltd on behalf of clients. The location of the site is shown in figure 3. The magnetic contrast across the survey area was sufficient to be able to differentiate between anomalies representing possible archaeological features and background magnetic responses. Twenty-three magnetic anomaly groups were identified as pertaining to archaeological deposits or structures. Of these, three represent former field boundaries recorded on historical Ordnance Survey maps. One group is likely to relate to a possible Bronze Age ring ditch recorded as a cropmark from aerial photographs and a second group within this structure may be associated with it. A further group may represent a possible pit or earth-filled hollow. The remaining groups are linear and curvilinear deposits or structures that may relate to former fields or other enclosure boundaries not recorded on historical Ordnance Survey maps. |
