Abstract: |
Stratascan were commissioned by MOLAS to undertake a geophysical survey of an area outlined for residential development. A magnetic susceptibility survey was carried out over 17ha at Cranfield Airfield, Bedfordshire. Based on these results a further 6.9ha of detailed magnetic survey was carried out. Numerous linear anomalies have been identified which probably relate to cut features and field boundaries of an archaeological origin, and possible services. In places anomalies are cut by the airfield taxiways which suggests the airfield construction may have disturbed some features. There is also widespread evidence of ridge and furrow ploughing. |
