Description

Fieldwalking was undertaken on a single field to the north of Job's Lane downslope for a distance of 350m and along the proposed Haul Road. Fieldwalking was undertaken in lines 10m apart and all finds were individually plotted using a total station theodolite. Where fieldwalking was undertaken, the conditions for this method were generally good with up to 90% of the field surface visible and exposing a well weathered sandy loam. {1}
