Description

{1} A resistivity survey was undertaken in the area of a proposed new house. An area of low resistance may denote the infilled cellar of the 18th century mansion. Two walls may also be assigned to the former house. Otherwise the site displayed a high level of disturbance. [NRHE record: EHGSDB Visit No: 2292. Geophysical survey was accompanied by trial trenching, (925789) to assess the impact of of a housing development upon the SAM.]
