Abstract:
Magnitude Surveys (MS) was commissioned to undertake a geophysical survey of the outer defences of Castleshaw Roman Fort, Saddleworth. MS surveyed a 0.4ha area of the northern defences with the magnetic method; while a 0.2ha area of the eastern defences was surveyed using earth resistance (ER) and ground penetrating radar methods (GPR), in addition to the magnetic method. The surveys aimed to expand on previous work undertaken by the Tameside Archaeological Society in 2014, which mapped anomalies relating to the fort with a low-resolution ER survey. MS' 2016 work incorporated an ER cart to collect high-resolution results for comparison, while the suitability of the GPR and magnetic methods for detecting archaeology at Castleshaw were tested.
