Abstract: |
The survey was successful in recording anomalies of possible archaeological origin, despite the fairly high magnetic background and the narrow fields causing magnetic disturbance to a high percentage of the data plots. The most interesting anomaly is a weak positive curvilinear that could be a ring ditch, a drip gully or even the corner of a previous field boundary. This anomaly is particularly weak and therefore may be present at a significant depth below the superficial alluvium geology. Three positive discrete anomalies were also recorded, one of which is in close proximity to the curvilinear. A linear area of magnetic disturbance that could be a trackway and six areas of magnetic disturbance were also present within the dataset, it is likely that they are modern, although an archaeological origin cannot be ruled out. The superficial alluvial deposit on site lies at an unknown depth and could be masking further anomalies from being recorded. Despite this, four archaeological anomalies and other areas of magnetic disturbance were recorded by the survey that are worthy of further archaeological investigation. |
