Abstract: |
Magnitude Surveys was commissioned to assess the subsurface archaeological potential of a c. 1.8ha area of pasture off Main Road, Somersham, Suffolk. A fluxgate magnetometer survey was successfully completed. The geophysical results primarily reflect ferrous responses associated with the site's current configuration as paddocks. While these metallic features produce broad, overshadowing anomalies around the paddocks' fencing, the interior is relatively clear. No anomalies of an archaeological origin have been detected. Beyond the ferrous responses, weak agricultural trends have been identified, along with a number of responses classified as 'Undetermined' that may be the result of disturbances from the surrounding housing or the site's current land usage. |
