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 7), strong linear trends aligned approximately north to south are indicative of former ploughing. It is possible that a negative linear anomaly along the western extent of this area represents a former headland.
