Land off Craythorne Road, Stretton

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 definite archaeological interest. However, numerous responses of uncertain origin have been marked in the survey. Some of these anomalies could have archaeological origins but their interpretation is not clear. Most of the uncertain responses are probably due to natural and agricultural processes. The routes of former field boundaries and land drains have been marked in the data. A zone of magnetic disturbance in Area 1 has probably been caused by spreads of demolition debris associated with a former building that were once on site.
