Abstract: |
Magnitude Surveys was commissioned to assess the subsurface archaeological potential of a c. 1.17ha area of land west of Weston Road, Weston-on-Trent, South Derbyshire. A fluxgate gradiometer survey was successfully completed across the survey area. The geophysical survey has primarily detected agricultural activity in the form of two former field boundaries, ploughing and drainage features. Anomalies of undetermined origins have also been identified within the survey area; the size of the survey area has limited a clear interpretation of these anomalies. These may relate to modern or agricultural activity and there is nothing in the geophysical survey results to suggest that these anomalies represent significant archaeological features. The impact of modern activity can be seen in the form of the magnetic halo caused by the pylon within the survey area and those of the houses that border the area. |
