Description
A magnetometry scanning survey (LI4355) found a small number of anomalies and zones of fluctuating response. As a consequence, a detailed magnetometry survey was undertaken on these areas to define and delineate any archaeological features, and to provide a wider spatial coverage of the application area. In total 12 separate areas were studied. A small number of responses were recorded which may be of archaeological potential, but this is tentative. The majority of anomalies detected were attributed to recent agriculture and pedologoical variation. {1}
