Abstract: |
A magnetometer survey was carried out by Archaeological Surveys Ltd, at the request of Archaeology Warwickshire, across land at Moreton Morrell College in Warwickshire. The site has been outlined for a new sports hall and sports pitch. The area of the proposed sports hall had been subject to modern disturbance with widespread magnetic debris encountered. In the area of the new sports pitch a positive linear anomaly, over 2m in width, appears to relate to a former ditch with a narrower linear response indicating a parallel ditch 2.5m to the north west. There is some evidence for partial truncation by ridge and furrow. A further ditch-like anomaly extends from the parallel pair towards the south east, and it is possible that the group are associated with enclosures extending beyond the limit of the survey. Negative linear and rectilinear anomalies can be seen in the north eastern part of the survey area but their origin is uncertain. Other positive linear and discrete responses of uncertain origin have also been located. |
