Abstract:
A geophysical survey, comprising both magnetometer and earth resistance, was carried out over part of the former precinct of Byland Abbey, North Yorkshire (Monument No. 13279) as part of a wider research project investigating the area through analytical earthwork survey. Three possible structures have been identified in both surveys although all correlate to a certain extent with the mapped earthworks. In general the resistance survey has provided the most detail with all the major earthworks clearly defined as well as boundaries shown on early Ordnance Survey mapping. The magnetometer survey proved less able to distinguish the earthworks or other modern features/activity due to the presence of superficial drift deposits of alluvium to the north of the site and boulder clay over the remainder.
