Abstract: |
A detailed gradiometer survey was conducted over land near Grange Farm, Winterbourne, South Gloucestershire. The project was commissioned by Smiths Gore on behalf of their client Solar Power South Ltd with the aim of establishing the presence, or otherwise, and nature of detectable archaeological features on the site ahead of a proposed development of a solar array. The site comprises eight fields to the north of Trench Lane, approximately 10km north of the centre of Bristol. The site occupies an area of relatively flat land. The gradiometer survey covered 34.6ha and has demonstrated the presence of anomalies of likely, probable and possible archaeological interest within the survey area, along with a region of increased magnetic response and at least one modern service. Some anomalies were identified that may relate to a nearby lime kiln in the north and at least two enclosures have been identified at the southwest corner of the site. The majority of the anomalies detected appear to relate to this areas use for agriculture. The geophysical survey was undertaken between the 7th and 31st October 2013. |
