Abstract: |
The differences in magnetic responses across the Survey Area were sufficient to be able to differentiate between anomalies representing possible buried archaeology and background magnetic responses. Seven magnetic anomaly groups were characterised as representing potential archaeological deposits although none of these were located within the proposed development plot. One anomaly group is likely to represent a former field boundary recorded on historic maps between at least 1840 and 1963. Two groups may indicate the presence of large pits or earthen surfaces disrupted by later ploughing although natural origins cannot be ruled out. Two groups may represent smaller pits. Two groups may depict linear deposits although one of these may represent a service trench. |
