Abstract: |
A detailed gradiometer survey was conducted over land at Glenmore Farm, Hawkeridge Road, Westbury, Wiltshire (NGR ST 86371 52855) with the aim of establishing the presence, or otherwise, and nature of detectable archaeological features on the site ahead of proposed development of the site for residential and business use. The project was commissioned by Taylor Wimpey UK Limited, following the recommendations of a desk-based assessment undertaken by Wessex Archaeology which established the potential for the presence of buried archaeological remains. The survey area consists of a single large field to the north-west and another area around the farm complex to the south-east subdivided in many smaller rectangular enclosures, it has a mixed use of arable and pasture. The gradiometer survey was undertaken between 27th and 29th August 2014 using Bartington Grad601 instruments, and has demonstrated the presence of anomalies of likely, probable and possible archaeological interest along with ploughing, some trends of uncertain origin and three modern services. |
