Abstract: |
Magnitude Surveys Ltd was commissioned to assess the subsurface archaeological potential of a c.6.7ha area of land to the northeast of Orsett Heath, Grays, Essex. A fluxgate gradiometer survey was successfully completed across the entirety of the survey area. Anomalies of agricultural and modern origin have been identified in the form of ploughing trends and a historic field boundary as well as a network of drains. No anomalies of probable or possible archaeological origin were identified within the survey area. However, anomalies of undetermined origin have been detected, as such the presence of archaeological remains within the survey area cannot be ruled out. Modern interference can be seen in the form of magnetic haloes and data artefacts produced by extant rugby goal posts, metal fencing along the field edges and underground services. |
