Abstract: |
Magnitude Surveys was commissioned to assess the subsurface archaeological potential of a c. 4.6 ha area of land at the NSG European Technical Centre, Lathom, West Lancashire. A fluxgate gradiometer survey was successfully completed, and extensive anomalies related to the First World War remount depot were identified. The geophysical results primarily reflect concrete or brick roadways serving the structures and/or demolition rubble from the depot buildings. A number or structures have been tentatively identified, including barrack/stable blocks and an exercise track. No evidence has been found which matches the description of the reported horse burials at the site, neither have any anomalies been identified that would be considered a likely candidate. |
