Description

{1} Geophysical survey forming part of a wider assessment of a proposed mineral extraction site. The magnetometer scanning showed that the site was magnetically quiet with only a scatter of ferrous spikes and minor areas of magnetic disturbance being noted. The magnetic susceptibility survey revealed several areas of minor enhancement and one more notable are towards the centre of the site. An area of 0.36ha was targeted on this more marked area of enhancement for further investigation using detailed survey techniques (ENN106609).
