Abstract: |
A detailed magnetometer survey was carried out on the playing fields of St Columba's College, St Albans, by Archaeological Surveys Ltd, ahead of their planned refurbishment. The survey was carried out using a hand-pushed, 5 sensor cart-based system. The results indicate the presence of a number of positive linear and rectilinear anomalies that may relate to features with archaeological potential. Other linear anomalies could be associated with formerly mapped features, but this is not certain and an archaeological origin is also possible. Much of the site contains evidence for modern disturbance through land drainage measures, ground make-up and magnetic disturbance from ferrous objects. |
