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.
Linear anomalies 4063 and 4064 are similar in character to 4060 and 4061; it is possible that they are the remnants of former field divisions, although they are similarly lacking in width of response. Two isolated anomalies towards the northeastern extent are thought to be of limited archaeological potential.
