Abstract: |
This detailed fluxgate gradiometer survey was successful in identifying a range of anomalies, some of which have a possible archaeological origin. One area of magnetic enhancement with a rectangular form, that is indicative of building remains was recorded. Located nearby was a negative linear trend (a ditch or possible boundary) on a similar alignment that could be associated with it. One positive curvilinear anomaly may also be of archaeological derivation, however a geological origin cannot be ruled out. Further results include a strong dipolar linear trend that delineates a modern electric cable, a weak positive linear trend that is another possible service trench or land drain, five areas of magnetic disturbance caused by field boundaries, an all-weather cricket pitch and landscaping, and a plethora of isolated dipolar responses. The subsequent trial trench evaluation will help to qualify the interpretations given within this report while determining whether these anomalies are unrecorded heritage assets. |
