Abstract: |
Detailed magnetometry was carried out within a single 47ha field using an ATV-towed array. The results indicate the presence of a number of prehistoric features including a rectilinear enclosure with an internal smaller enclosure situated at the eastern edge of the site. In the north is a large, square enclosure with an internal U-shaped enclosure and a single small ring ditch. To the west is a circular enclosure and further south west is another small ring ditch. A stone-lined drain is also located within a shallow valley in the southern part of the site and this could also have archaeological potential. The site also contains a large number of positive linear and discrete anomalies and while some may relate to further cut features it is likely that many relate to naturally formed anomalies. There are widespread natural features as well as numerous land drains, ridge and furrow and a number of formerly mapped land boundaries. |
