Abstract: |
Detailed magnetometry was carried out by Archaeological Surveys Ltd, over an area of land at Templecombe in Somerset. The site is associated with the medieval Preceptory of the Knights Templar and later Commandery of the Knights Hospitallers and contains a number of rectilinear earthworks, although these are believed to be associated with post-medieval features. The results of the survey indicate a number of potential features in the northern part of the site that could pre-date the extant earthworks. In the south eastern part of the site, discrete positive responses appear to cluster and could relate to pit-like features of archaeological potential, although this is uncertain. In the southern part of the site, a number of weakly positive linear anomalies are likely to relate to former ditch-like features and may also be of archaeological potential. |
