Abstract: |
A 30m grid was established across the survey area and related to the OS National Grid using a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) with real-time kinematic (RTK) corrections typically providing 10mm accuracy.
Magnetic gradient measurements were determined using a Bartington Grad601-2 dual fluxgate gradiometer. A zig-zag traverse scheme was employed and data were logged in 30m grid units. The instrument sensitivity was effectively 0.03nT, the sample interval was 0.25m and the traverse interval was 1m, thus providing 3,600 sample measurements per 30m grid unit. One possible ditch feature, of unknown date or function, was been detected. The majority of the survey area appears to be disturbed ground, perhaps containing deposits of rubble or similar magnetic materials. |
