Full description
Urmston, Ben, 11/2008, Avon Support Main, between Roborough and Houndall, near Plymouth, Devon. (Report - Geophysical Survey). SDV358939.
A geophysical survey was undertaken of a proposed 13km water main between Roborough and Houndall, near Plymouth, Devon. Several sites of archaeological interest were identified.
In this area (Area 6), a number of linear anomalies are aligned with the extant eastern and western boundaries, and may be of some archaeological interest. Linear trends on the same orientation are typical of ploughing scars and the stronger anomalies may simply reflect magnetic material brought to the surface by deeper ploughing.
