Full description

Dean, R., 15/07/2015, Westwood, Land adjoining Junction 27, M5, Devon (Report - Geophysical Survey). SDV359560.

Geophysical survey identified a strong dipole ferrous response indicating iron or steel beneath the surface. It is spatially associated with a spring or wet area (group 2001) but the archaeological significance of the relationship cannot be established and such a strong ferrous response is likely to reflect relatively recent iron-rich material.
