Description

Magnetometer survey was carried out at Cendry Holme to detect iron working activities. The magnetic survey values were high and provided a good contrast with a very uncluttered background. The magnetic survey detected a single metal working operation, which may be interpreted as containing all the elements of processing iron ores to iron.
