Summary

A geophysical survey of this site in 2021 identified a group of linear anomalies that potentially represent archaeologically-significant remains, although it is possibly that some or all are natural in origin. The only other response of note was a linear anomaly that corresponds with a former field boundary shown on a late 19th-century map.

Map

March 2021. Geophysical Survey.
Magnetometer survey of part of large proposed development site (Areas 4 and 5).
This survey identified nothing of definite archaeological significance.
The most notable responses are a number of somewhat irregular linear anomalies in the eastern field. These potentially represent archaeologically-significant remains, although it is possible that some, if not all are actually natural in origin.
A north-to-south aligned linear anomaly recorded in the western field corresponds with a former field boundary depicted on the Ordnance Survey First Edition Six-inch map (S1).
See report (S2) for further details.
