February to April 2004. Geophysical Survey. Field 3, Areas I-J
A magnetic susceptibility survey was carried out over the entire field and a gradiometer survey was undertaken within two discrete areas.
Very little variation was recorded during the magnetic susceptibility survey, with only occasional discrete high readings caused by brick or similar material in the topsoil.
The gradiometer survey identified one possible pit towards the southeast of the field.
See report (S1) for further details.
