Abstract/Summary

A geophysical (fluxgate gradiometer) survey was carried out at Milton Ham, adjacent to Junction 15A of the M1. The survey comprised magnetic scanning of the whole 14ha site followed by a 20% sample detailed survey. A ‘ladder’ enclosure system, comprising a linear series of connecting enclosures has been identified aligned along a ridge in the eastern half of the site. Isolated responses may indicate occupation activity. Linear anomalies caused by ridge and furrow ploughing have been identified across all parts of the site.
