Abstract: |
A detailed gradiometer survey was conducted over land east of Acresford Road, Overseal, Derbyshire. The project was commissioned by CgMs Consulting with the aim of establishing the presence, or otherwise, and nature of detectable archaeological features on the site ahead of a proposed development. The site comprises arable fields located to the east of Acresford Road, covering an area of approximately 4.7 hectares. Due to crop growth the surveyable area was reduced to approximately 2.9ha. The geophysical survey was undertaken on 1st - 2nd April 2015 by Wessex Archaeology. The gradiometer survey has demonstrated the presence of anomalies of archaeological and possible archaeological interest within the Site, along with ploughing trends, remnant ridge and furrow and regions of increased magnetic response. The anomalies of archaeological interest are primarily linear features of unknown origin. |
