Description

{1} Geophysical survey of three fields of arable and pasture land. The site is dominated by strong linear and curvilinear responses likely related to a probable Romano-British settlement associated with the nearby scheduled Roman villa. The majority of the activity is focussed across Field 2 and the north of Field 3, with a less dense concentration in the south of Field 1.
