Full Description

{1} Parallel weak positive anomalies orientated north west - south east across plot 8W indicate a former ridge and furrow cultivation scheme. Similar results were seen across plot 9.

{2} The furrows detected on the geophysical survey were not readily apparent within the observed areas but may have been represented by patches of sandier 'natural substrate' which occasionally appeared to lie on the same north-west to south-east alignment.
