Abstract: |
This report was commissioned by SLR Consulting on behalf of Jaguar Land Rover Ltd (JLR) as part of a programme of archaeological work in connection with future development at the above site. It describes the results of magnetometer and electromagnetic conductivity test surveys across 1ha of the site. These were undertaken to ascertain whether the techniques would provide a useful contribution to establishing the extent and significance of any archaeological remains which may exist within the site. The magnetometer survey proved that the magnetic response across the survey area was quiet. This is typical for the geology of the area and no further magnetometer surveys were recommended across this particular site. The electromagnetic conductivity survey did produce a better response but was dominated by remnant ridge-and-furrow with no other possible archaeological deposits visible in the data. It was concluded that this technique may provide results elsewhere across the site but that traces of archaeological deposits would be difficult to identify. |
