Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Environ UK Ltd to undertake a detailed gradiometer survey over the proposed route of the gas pipeline linking Thorpe Marsh Power Station and the National Transmission Service near Camblesforth (460252, 409928 to 463366, 425522). The aim of the survey is to establish the presence, or otherwise, and nature of detectable archaeological features on the site as part of a programme of archaeological works, ahead of the proposed development. Detailed gradiometer survey was undertaken over all accessible parts of the site, a total of 48ha, and has demonstrated the presence of a few anomalies of likely, probable and possible archaeological interest in addition to several modern services. The archaeology detected includes a sub-rectangular enclosure, at least two ring ditches and several isolated pits. There are other ditch sections scattered throughout the data; some relate to fairly recent former field boundaries but others may indicate earlier field systems. Ridge and furrow was detected in some fields. The majority of detected anomalies relate to this areas use for agricultural activity. |
