Abstract: |
A geophysical (magnetometer) survey was undertaken on approximately 22 hectares of land located at Birkwood and Smalley Bight, to the northwest of Stanley Ferry, Wakefield, West Yorkshire. Anomalies of a possible archaeological origin have been detected which may suggest part of a former field system and a tentative ring ditch. Possible medieval ridge and furrow cultivation have also been detected along with former field boundaries, modern ploughing and a field drain. Responses associated with a possible former route of the River Calder, and responses associated with flooding have been recorded in Birkwood. |
