Abstract: |
The differences in magnetic responses across the Survey Area were sufficient to be able to differentiate between anomalies representing possible buried archaeology and background magnetic responses. Five magnetic anomaly groups were mapped as representing potential buried archaeology. Of these, two groups coincide with, and likely represent, field boundaries recorded on historic maps. The third group may represent a linear archaeological deposit such as a ditch, though more likely a relatively recent service trench. Two groups represent ferrous material and coincide with a pavilion mapped between 1933 and 1983. It is possible that this ferrous material is associated with the former pavilion. Seventeen anomaly groups representing relatively recently disturbed ground, ferrous cables or pipes, and possible ferrous deposits with unusual magnetic responses were also mapped. |
