Abstract: |
A geophysical (magnetometer) survey covering approximately 37.5 hectares was carried out on agricultural land to the north of Michelmersh, to inform the determination of an outline planning application for a proposed solar park. A sub-circular enclosure is clearly identified in the western half of the site although it is 75m north of two sites recorded on the Hampshire Historic Environment Record. No other anomalies of archaeological potential have been identified although several anomalies likely to locate small-scale, probably post medieval, extraction pits are also recorded. Numerous pipes leading to/from a gas pumping station dominate the data set in the eastern half of the site. On the basis of the magnetic survey the archaeological potential of the site is considered to be low throughout, with the exception of the area in and around the enclosure. However, it is worth noting that the survey has not identified any anomalies at either of the two previously recorded cropmark sites. |
