Geophysical Survey at Land off Cow Lane, Edlesborough

Data was collected using a cart carrying four paired Bartington magnetic sensors. Four sensors mounted 1m horizontally apart and very accurately aligned to nullify the effects of the earth's magnetic field. Readings relate to the difference in localised magnetic anomalies compared with the general magnetic background. Each data point is geographically referenced using an on-board Trimble RTK survey grade GPS system. Readings were taken at 0.125m centres along traverses 1.0m apart. Readings relate to the difference in localised magnetic anomalies compared with the general magnetic background. The magnetometer survey has not recorded any magnetic responses that could be interpreted as being of archaeological interest. Numerous responses of uncertain origin have been marked across the survey which are likely to have been caused by natural, agricultural or modern processes. Former field boundaries and a current boundary have also been plotted in the magnetic data.
