Abstract:
The differences in magnetic responses across the Site were sufficient to be able to differentiate between This is a combination of an earlier survey with the current survey. The summary, monuments etc are for the combination. It is not clear whether the patterns of archaeologically significant anomaly distribution shown in Area 2 are related to the known geological variation across the Site, are related to associated known changes in soil and near-surface sediment depth or reflect a real distribution of buried archaeology as recorded by the survey technique. Eighty-one magnetic anomaly groups were mapped as representing potential buried archaeology. Of these, seven groups coincide with, and likely represent, field boundaries recorded by on historic maps. A further seven groups are typical of anomalies representing deposits deriving from former craft and/or industrial activities; either in-situ deposits derived directly from production or processing, or secondary deposits of materials such as tile or pottery. Eight anomaly groups possibly representing heated material lie within two of these groups which further supports the view that these groups indicate production and/or deposition of materials derived from industrial or craft activities. The remaining anomaly groups across the Site have characteristics typical of anomalies representing linear and curvilinear archaeological deposits. These are most likely to represent small enclosure boundaries and fragments of field boundaries although, given the presence of the possible industrial/craft related anomaly groups and the distribution of Roman tile, slate and tesserae recorded during field walking surveys undertaken by the Tiverton Archaeological Group, some may represent building footings.
