Abstract: |
Detailed magnetometry was carried out by Archaeological Surveys Ltd over the site for the proposed Griffins Farm Quarry, near Stockton, Warwickshire. The results demonstrate the presence of a number of previously unrecorded archaeological features including evidence for a banjo enclosure in the southern part of the site. Within the vicinity of the banjo enclosure are a large number of linear ditches, enclosures, ring ditches and pits indicating phases of occupation and activity within the site. Further archaeological anomalies have been located to the west and to the north east and together the archaeological features cover at least 8.5ha within the 42ha site. Approximately 5ha was unsurveyable due to roughly ploughed saturated soil, but it is possible that archaeological features may extend into this unsurveyed area from features visible immediately to the south. All of the survey areas contain former ridge and furrow which has partially truncated many of the anomalies. |
