Abstract:
There are distinct groupings of magnetic anomaly groups characterised as representing potential buried archaeology a relatively high density in the southwest of the Site and a lesser but clear density of anomaly groups in the northeast. This distribution of anomaly groups reflects the wetter conditions found across parts of the site with fewer anomalies recorded in wet areas. The authors believe the anomaly distribution reflects the distribution of archaeology and that the wetter areas were not exploited in the past to the same extent as the drier areas of the Site. The remaining mapped magnetic anomaly groups have characteristics typical of anomalies representing linear and curvilinear archaeological deposits such as remnants of enclosure or field boundaries. Three groups stand out; two are situated on the north-eastern are of the Site and represent an archaeological feature partially mapped as a field boundary on the 1841 Bideford Tithe map. Their magnetic response is clear and distinct from the other mapped groups. A third group, in the south-western area of the site, has a distinct trend not seen elsewhere in the dataset. The relative abundance of anomaly groups characterised as representing possible field and enclosure boundaries removed before the publication of the 1841 Tithe map suggests that the land has been subject to significant agrarian changes in the past.
