Abstract: |
The cart-based survey was undertaken using an eight channel SenSYS MX V3 system containing eight FGM650 sensors. Readings are taken every 20MHz (between 0.05 and 0.1m). Data were recorded onto a device, using a Carlson GNSS Smart antenna, for centimetre accuracy. These readings were stored in the memory of the instrument and downloaded for processing and interpretation. DLMGPS and MAGNETO software, alongside bespoke in-house software was used to process and present the data. A geophysical (magnetometer) survey was undertaken on approximately 1.2 hectares of land located off Hainsworth Road, Silsden, West Yorkshire. The geophysical survey has detected a number of magnetic anomalies associated with the more recent agricultural use of the site. This includes a former field boundary, field drains and medieval or later ridge and furrow cultivation. Magnetic disturbance around the survey area are due to metal fencing within the boundaries.
Based on the results of this geophysical survey the site has a low archaeological potential. |
