Abstract: |
Detailed magnetometry was carried out using a cart-based system of 5 sensors spaced 0.5m apart over an area of 0.5ha on the northern part of a 2ha field on the eastern edge of Faulkland. The results have revealed a number of positive linear and discrete anomalies within the site. Several of the anomalies are linear,
rectilinear and possibly curvilinear in form and many appear to have been truncated or disturbed by agricultural activity, possibly ridge and furrow. Discrete and amorphous responses appear to relate to pit-like features, and although an anthropogenic origin is possible, a natural or agricultural origin should also be considered. |
