Abstract: |
A geophysical survey, comprising both resistivity and magnetometry, was carried out by Archaeological Surveys Ltd at Lower Ham Farm, near Broad Town in Wiltshire, ahead of an indoor horse arena development. The results of the resistivity show a small number of relatively high resistance anomalies, some of which could relate to ground compaction, but they generally lack a coherent morphology. Detailed magnetometry was also carried out and a small number of weakly positive linear and negative linear anomalies were located. They do not generally correspond to any resistance anomalies and lack a coherent morphology preventing confident interpretation as cut features. Both data sets had anomalies associated with the extant ridge and furrow. |
