Description

AML Survey Database Reference No.: 813 Survey type: Magnetometer: recorded grid survey of an area of proposed installations associated with the British Gas Corporation's well-drilling operations. Features of one or more period appeared to focus within an enclosure at the eastern extremity of the site, where there was magnetic evidence of industrial activity. Readings fell away to the south west, possibly due to lack of enhancement from burning processes.
