Description
{1} A geophysical reconnaissance survey was undertaken on suitable land along the length of the proposed route. The route was scanned in a 120 m-wide corridor at walking pace along transects spaced at 10 m intervals while continuously monitoring the magnetic response of the ground. Significant anomalies (readings greater than +3nt other than those from modem features) were located in the field using manual measurements. The only potentially significant anomalies were found in Field 13 where a group of three anomalies may indicate a series of pits or a ditch.
