Abstract:
Magnitude Surveys was commissioned to assess the subsurface archaeological potential of a c. 80.49ha area of land at Bloys Grove Solar Farm, Swainsthorpe, Norfolk. A fluxgate gradiometer survey was successfully completed, although c. 9.5ha could not be surveyed due to poor ground conditions. A series of probable enclosures, flanked by two possible trackways and containing anomalies indicative of internal features (such as pits and subdivisions), have been detected; these are considered likely to form part of the deserted medieval settlement at Kenningham. The survey also identified possible small kilns and raw material extraction of unknown date. Post-medieval agricultural activity is indicated by anomalies related to multiple former field boundaries, modern ploughing regimes and land drainage. Across the survey area, additional weak linear/curvilinear and discrete anomalies potentially indicate further cut archaeological features, although their origins remain uncertain as they exhibit little contrast with the magnetic background, which is influenced across the survey area by geological variation and the effects of modern agriculture. The impact of magnetic disturbance from modern activity is largely limited to field perimeters, although a line of power cables and a subsurface service introduce interference across the centre of the survey area.
