Full description

Wessex Archaeology, 2015, Land Off Tithebarn Lane, Redhayes, Broad Clyst, Exeter, East Devon: Gradiometer Survey (Report - Geophysical Survey). SDV361435.

A detailed gradiometer survey was conducted over land at Tithebarn Lane, Redhayes, to establish the presence, or otherwise, and nature of detectable archaeological features in support of a planning application for the site as residential housing development consisting of 412 new homes.

Positive linear anomalies visible at 4002 and 4003 suggest further sections of ditches with two sets of anomalies perpendicular to each other. It cannot currently be ascertained whether these are part of a separate enclosure or potentially associated with the enclosure ditch at 4000 (MDV76542).

A narrow linear positive anomaly at 4007 is interpreted as a ditch type feature which is oriented north-west to south-east. It is possibly associated with 4002 due to its proximity and similar orientation.
