Area 16. No. 83. A large curvilinear positive anomaly which may be associated with the barrow to the west. The anomaly is generally between 4 and 7 metres wide. It is relatively strongly enhanced and could relate to a cut feature such as a ditch. Several other positive linear anomalies were also recorded (84, 85, 86) within the arc of 83 for which an archaeological origin cannot be ruled out.

A single undated dtich was identified during the archaeological evaluation which corresponded with a geophysical anomaly.

Site 31. Springfield, Ugborough. Several linear anomalies were identified by geophysical survey although nothing with much clarity due to magnetic disturbances. The plot was investigated with a trial trench but the subsequent excavation was undertaken a little way to the south.
