Abstract: |
Magnitude Surveys was commissioned to assess the subsurface archaeological potential of a c.19ha area of land off Bury Road, Woolpit, Suffolk. A fluxgate magnetometer survey was successfully completed and no anomalies of probable or possible archaeological origin were identified. The geophysical results primarily reflect agricultural activity, with possible changes in field structure and layout present. Throughout the site several responses correlate with former field boundaries and have been categorised as such. Further linear features have been identified, while these are in alignment with the mapped boundaries they themselves do not appear on the available historic mapping, it is likely that these reflect unmapped boundaries. Further anomalies indicative of natural variation and extant ferrous items have also been detected, while a large highly magnetic anomaly in the centre of Area 2 possibly represents a concrete base. |
