Description

A geophysical magnetometry survey was conducted in April 2019 in advance of proposed gravel extraction at Greatford. All four fields surveyed were found to show evidence for archaeological remains relating to enclosures, ditch systems, pits, and a potential trackway. Ridge and furrow was also recorded. It was noted by the surveyors that many features visible in the geophysical survey results were not visible as cropmarks in aerial photographs, and vice versa. {1}
