Full Description
January-May 2010. Geophysical survey.
Magnetometer survey of proposed development site (Areas 23a and 23b).
No anomalies of obvious archaeological significance were identified in the two areas examined.
It is though noted that, like those to the west, this area exhibited a high level of background magnetic noise, suggesting the ploughsoil is heavily contaminated with ferrous debris, brick rubble, slag or other magnetic debris. Weak geological 'patterned ground' anomalies are also present, though rendered somewhat indistinct by the background noise.
See report (S1) for further details. The results of this work are also summarised in (S2).
