Abstract: |
Detailed magnetometer survey, covering 10.5 hectares, was undertaken at selected locations along the prefered route of the duelling of the A1 between Adderstone and Belford. A plethera of anomalies indicative of geological and pedological variation have been identified in most of the survey areas. Other anomalies are due to agricultural activity. No anomalies of a probable archaeological origin have been identified although some anomalies that could have an archaeological cause have been noted in areas adjacent to cropmarks. It is considered possible that the strength and variability of the magnetic responses caused by the geological varioation could be masking more subtle anomalies of possible archaeological origin. |
