Abstract: |
This report was commissioned by AC Archaeology Ltd on behalf of clients and has been prepared as part of a programme of work in support of a forthcoming planning application for a solar farm at the above site. The location of the proposed development area is shown in Figure 4. The magnetic contrast across the area was sufficient to be able to differentiate between anomalies representing possible archaeological features and background magnetic responses. Twenty magnetic anomaly groups were identified as pertaining to archaeological deposits or structures. Two groups correspond to field boundaries mapped by the Ordnance Survey between 1886 and 1962. One group is likely to represent a rectangular enclosure and four anomaly groups to the west of the enclosure may highlight a scatter of archaeological material. The remaining anomaly groups identified as representing possible archaeological deposits or features have patterns typical of anomalies representing former field and enclosure boundaries of unknown date and archaeological provenance. |
