Site Event/Activity record ESF25419 - Geophysical Survey - Stoke-by-Nayland Golf Course

Britannia Archaeoloy Ltd undertook a detailed gradiometer survey of five areas in which below ground impacts will occur. These areas are located within pockets of land covered by a pre-determination. The geophysical survey identified several anomalies which appear to be of archaeological located in Areas A and C. Areas B, D and E identified no features of archaeological origin. Anomalies in Area A could be modern. Ground conditions from recent ploughing of Areas C, D and E affected the data collection in the field. However, the magnetic contrast seen in the survey indicates that the underlying geology was suited to magnetic geophysical survey. The anomalies present in the data have varying signal strengths sugesting that they have suffered truncation from modern ploughing of the field (S1).
