Description

Geophysical survey in relation to a proposed quarry extension. Concentrations of small anomalies were detected across the study area, and thought likely to indicate the presence of waste material or geological conditions. A number of weak linear magnetic anomalies were recorded, possibly land drains or agricultural features. A modern service pipe was also detected.
