Abstract: |
Magnetometer survey carried out over c. 17.7ha using quad-towed and hand-carried GNSS-positioned bespoke fluxgate gradiometer system. Magnitude Surveys Ltd was commissioned to assess the potential for sub-surface archaeological remains over a c. 17.7ha area of land northwest of Northwold, Norfolk. A fluxgate gradiometer survey was completed across most of the survey area, with areas totalling c. 1.54ha unable to be surveyed due to unsuitable ground conditions. The geophysical survey has detected a range of anomalies of agricultural origins, including mapped and unmapped former boundaries, pre-modern cultivation, drainage features and modern ploughing. Natural variations in the geology are visible across the survey area. Modern interference from field boundaries and telephone poles was present but minimal. Anomalies classified as ‘undetermined’ have also been identified but due to their weak signal their origin is unknown, although it is likely that they are of agricultural origin. |
