Abstract: |
The site grid was laid out using a Trimble VRS differential Global Positioning System (Trimble R6 model). The survey was undertaken using Bartington Grad601 magnetic gradiometers. These were employed taking readings at 0.25m intervals on zig-zag traverses 1.0m apart within 30m by 30m grids, so that 3600 readings were recorded in each grid. These readings were stored in the memory of the instrument and later downloaded to computer for processing and interpretation. A geophysical (magnetometer) survey was undertaken on approximately 9 hectares of land located to the southeast of Cotswold Airport, Kemble, Gloucestershire. Anomalies of a possible archaeological origin have been detected including probable former boundaries or field systems and pits. Modern ploughing has also been detected along with geological responses, a service pipe and modern debris. Based on the geophysical survey the archaeological potential is moderate. |
