Description
Geophysical survey consisting of topsoil magnetic susceptibility survey was carried out in advance of a proposed extension of the quarry. A broad band of magnetic enchancement was seen across the southern half of the field and it is thought that this may relate to quarrying activity as seen to the east (PRN 61823?). A pair of parallel ditches and a single ditch running north west to south east were also seen. {1}{2}
