Description
Geophysical surveys of approximately 1.6 hectares were conducted over the site of a possible barrow cemetery at Fiskerton, Witham Valley, Lincolnshire. Topsoil volume magnetic susceptibilty measurements were made in situ with a Bartington MS2 meter and field loop at 15m intervals across a predetermined grid. In addition, one grid-square was surveyed at 5m intervals in an attempt to refine an area of markedly high readings. As the was almost no surface vegetation across the site, optimum contact betwee field loop and topsoil was achieved {1}
