Description

A magnetometry survey was conducted as part of a larger geophysical study, undertaken to inform the proposed construction of a solar farm on land to the west of the A15, Burton by Lincoln. A number of magnetic anomalies of possible archaeological origin were identified, including a 'D' shaped enclosure and a small circular enclosure of possible prehistoric date, and two sub-rectangular enclosures and a pit of unknown date. Magnetic anomalies indicative of medieval ridge and furrow were also recorded across large parts of the surveyed area. {1}
