Abstract: |
Detailed magnetometry carried out within five land parcels over 5ha using a hand-pushed cart-based system of 5 sensors spaced 0.5m apart. The results indicate the presence of a positive curvilinear anomaly near the eastern edge of the survey area, that although only partial, could potentially relate to a small ring ditch feature. A positive linear anomaly has also been located in the south western part of the site and it appears to relate to a former ditch-like feature. Numerous discrete positive responses in the southern and western parts of the site could relate to tree-throw pits. Negative anomalies have been located in the western part of the site and these may relate to the underlying Cornbrash geology although their origin is uncertain. |
