Description

MOLA was commissioned to conduct a geophysical survey on land to the west of Walgrave Cemetery. The survey detected magnetic anomalies which could be characterised as a rectilinear enclosure. However, overlying anomalies caused by extant ridge and furrow earthworks has made it difficult to defintively state the nature of these possible archaeological responses.
